As with any construction or remodeling project, there are several key factors to keep in mind when selecting and installing a linear drain system for a bathroom shower. Being mindful of these considerations will ensure optimal performance.
First and foremost, when constructing a shower, whether you're using a preformed pan or a mortar bed, be sure that your subfloor is level, clean and structurally sound. When installing tile showers, be sure that the subfloor is free of defects and meets all TCNA (Tile Council of North America) standards.
