Application Guidelines for Caroflow Shower Outlets 

The illustrations below explain the application process for a vinyl floor and a tiled floor. We have shown the vinyl floor on a wooden deck and the tiled floor on concrete, but these can equally be installed the other way round. If tiling over a timber floor the flooring should be min. 20mm marine or birch plywood. The illustrations show a Caroflow LoLine Shower Outlet but the application principles and cut-out sizes also apply to the Caroflow Standard Shower Outlet. 

1.

Lay timber flooring boards with falls to outlet point, and cut out 170mm diameter hole at required position. Remove cover/trap and clamp from LoLine body and plug internal outlet point with paper bung, to prevent debris from entering drainage system.

Remove cover/trap and clamp from Loline body and plug internal outlet point with paper bung to prevent debris from entering the drainage system.Connect outlet spigot to 40mm (1.5") PVC Compression Fittings waste pipe or, using proprietary adaptors to 50mm (2") pipe.  

2.

Connect outlet spigot to 40mm (1.5") PVC Compression or Push Fit waste pipe or, using proprietary adaptors, to 50mm (2") pipe. Ensure that outlet flange is screw fixed into recess within flooring board so that it is flush with top surface.  

2.

Lay screed to correct falls to finish level with outlet flange. 

3.

Lay and adhere flexible sheet flooring over the whole area and star cut into the mouth of the outlet, as shown. 

3.

Ensure that the tiling waterproofing/tanking system that is being used is dressed into LoLine mouth according to the manufacturers instructions and that the clamping ring is then firmly secured to ensure a perfect seal.

4.

Position and secure clamping ring into mouth of outlet. Ensure that the membrane is firmly trapped between clamp and body. Cut around clamp mouth to remove any sheet flooring that may be protruding. 

4.

Remove the grating from the Tile Set and then position and adhere the square Bezel directly over  the outlet mouth using tile adhesive. You can now work outwards to complete the remaining tiled area. 

5.

Remove paper plug and install cover/trap. 

5.

Once all the tiling and grouting is completed remove the paper plug and insert trap into "D" ring seal. Replace and screw grating back into Bezel. 

6.

Run water into LoLine and, once trap is full, check for foul odours.
