Available in five lengths and two grate configurations: offset oval in brushed stainless steel and a tile in tray. The LATICRETE Hydro Ban Linear Drains are available in 24″(61 cm), 32″(81 cm), 36″(91 cm), 48″(122 cm) and 60″(152 cm) lengths.

Limitations

 Adhesives/mastics, mortars and grouts for ceramic tile, pavers, brick and stone are not replacements for waterproofing membranes.  When a waterproofing membrane is required, use a LATICRETE Hydro Ban (see Section 10 FILING SYSTEMS).

 Note: Surfaces must be structurally sound, stable and rigid enough to support ceramic/stone tile, thin brick and similar finishes.  Substrate deflection under all live, dead and impact loads, including concentrated loads, must not exceed L/360 for thin bed ceramic tile/brick installations or L/480 for thin bed stone installations where L=span length.

Cautions

Consult MSDS for more safety information.

 During cold weather, protect finished work from traffic until fully cured. 

 All stainless steel surfaces must be clean and free of any dirt, oil, grease and fingerprints prior to coating with LATICRETE Hydro Ban.

Working Properties

The LATICRETE Hydro Ban Linear Drain series installs per IAPMO IGC 195-2010. Waterproof using LATICRETE Hydro Ban per TCNA B422.

INSTALLATION

Surface Preparation

All surfaces should be between 40°F (4°C) and 90°F (32°C) and structurally sound, clean and free of all dirt, oil, grease, laitance, paint, concrete sealers or curing compounds. Dry dusty concrete slabs or masonry should be dampened and excess water swept off. Installation may be made on a damp surface. Expansion joints shall be provided through the tile work from all construction or expansion joints in the substrate. Follow ANSI specification A108.01-3.7: Requirements for Movement Joints: Preparations by Other Trades” or TCNA detail EJ-171 “Movement joints-Vertical & Horizontal”. Do not cover expansion joints with mortar. Typically Linear Drains should run from sill plate to sill plate (the width of the shower) against a wall (see ES-B415LD Bonded Corner Placement). Alternatively they can also be placed in medial locations (see ES-B415LD  Unbonded  Medial Placement) or at the shower entrance. In all locations the waste line for standard size LATICRETE® Hydro Ban Linear Drains are in the center of the linear drain. When installed against a wall the center of the waste line should be located  far enough away from the sill plate to accommodate wall sheathing and finished tile surface. For 1/2″ (12 mm) wall board and 3/8″ (9 mm) tile the center of the waste line should be located  far enough away from the sill plate to accommodate wall sheathing and finished tile surface.  For 1/2” (12mm) wall board and 3/8” (9 mm) tile the center of the waste line should be located 2 1/4” (57mm) out from the sill plate. Mortar Bed—Installation Over Concrete (see ES-B415LD Bonded Corner Placement and ES-B415LD Unbonded Medial) For a Bonded mortar bed over concrete installation, before placing mortar, apply a slurry bond coat made from LATICRETE 254 Platinum or LATICRETE 4237 Latex Additive mixed with LATICRETE 211 Powder. While the slurry bond coat is wet, spread LATICRETE 3701 Fortified Mortar Bed and compact well.  Bonded mortar beds over concrete shall be 3/4″(19 mm) minimum to 2″(50 mm) maximum. For an unbonded installation over concrete (see ES-415LD Unbonded Medial) a cleavage membrane as specified in ANSI A108.02-3.8 should be used in place of the slurry bond coat.  The LATICRETE 3701 Fortified Mortar Bed should be reinforced with 2″ x 2″ (50 x 50 mm) reinforcing mesh. Unbonded Mortar beds over concrete shall be 1-1/4″(32 mm) minimum to 2″(50 mm) maximum. In both bonded and unbonded mortar Bed installations place enough LATICRETE 3701 Fortified Mortar Bed where the linear drain will be set to support the bottom and under the flanges of the drain trough. Minimum height from the flange to the substrate should be 1-1/2″ (38 mm). Make the connection to the waste line when the drain is set into place using a no hub connection (not supplied), see installation instructions below. Next place a ribbon of LATICRETE 3701 Fortified Mortar Bed along the opposite wall to create a 1/4″ (6 mm) per foot slope to the LATICRETE Linear Drain. Fill the area between the drain and the walls with LATICRETE 3701 Fortified Mortar Bed; screed and compact well. Mortar beds in excess of 2″(50 mm) thick shall be detailed by the architect per TCNA F112.

Mortar Bed – Installation Over Exterior Glue Plywood (EGP) (see ES-415LD EGP Bonded Corner Placement and ES-415LD EGP Unbonded Medial Placement) For a bonded mortar bed over EGP installation, before placing mortar, install a cleavage membrane as specified in ANSI A108.02- 3.8. Expanded metal lath (minimum 2.5 pounds (1.1 kg)/square yard (0.8 square meters) and complying with ANSI A108.02 3.6) is then nailed or stapled to the subfloor over the cleavage membrane. 

Following the lath spread LATICRETE 3701 Fortified Mortar Bed and compact well. Bonded mortar beds over EGP shall be 3/4″(19 mm) minimum to 1 1/2″(38 mm) maximum. For an unbonded installation over EGP (see ES-415LD EGP Unbonded Medial Placement) install a cleavage membrane as specified in ANSI A108.02-3.8 and then spread the LATICRETE 3701 Fortified Mortar Bed. In both bonded and unbonded mortar bed installations place enough LATICRETE 3701 Fortified Mortar Bed where the linear drain will be set to support the bottom and under the flanges of the drain trough. Minimum height from the flange to the substrate should be 1-1/2″ (38 mm). Make the connection to the waste line when the drain is set into place using a no hub connection (not supplied). Next place a ribbon of LATICRETE 3701 Fortified Mortar Bed along the opposite wall to create a 1/4″ (6 mm) per foot slope to the LATICRETE Linear Drain. Fill the area between the drain and the walls with LATICRETE 3701 Fortified Mortar Bed; screed and compact well. Mortar beds in excess of 2″(50 mm) thick shall be detailed by the architect per TCNA F112. Installation Instructions (Fig. 1) 1. Connect outlet (D) to waste pipe (F) via 2″(50 mm) no hub connection using a rubber coupling (E) (not provided). Note: outlet section (D) is 3″(76 mm) long and can be modified for height adjustment. Grate A has adjustable feet for finer adjustment (Minimum tile height with thin-set is 3/8″(10 mm), maximum tile height is 3/4″(19 mm). 2. Using  LATICRETE 3701 Fortified Mortar Bed,  set and level channel (C). 3. Spread LATICRETE 3701 Fortified Mortar Bed, slope 1/4″ per foot (19mm per m) to the drain in a single plane. Note: tile height should finish 1/16″(1.5 mm) higher than the grate height or the tile in the Tile in Drain Grate. 4. When the mortar is dry install backer board per manufacturer’s instructions. The backer board will sit on the drain flange and mortar (see ES-B415LD Bonded  Corner Placement or ESB415LD EGP Bonded Corner Placement). 5. After the backer board has been installed waterproof the installation using LATICRETE Hydro Ban per instructions in DS663.0 and  DS663.5. The stainless steel needs to be clean and free of any grease, dirt or fingerprints prior to coating with Hydro Ban. The LATICRETE Hydro Ban should cover the metal flange on the linear drain trough to the top of the first radius and extend up the walls and over the entire mortar bed. If the gap between the linear drain flange and the wall board is larger than 1/8″ (3 mm) it should be filled with a LATICRETE Polymer Modified Thin-Set  (e.g. LATICRETE 254 Platinum). An alternative would be to use 6″ (150 mm) wide LATICRETE Waterproofing/Anti-Fracture Fabric imbedded into the LATICRETE Hydro Ban around four sides of the linear drain overlapping the flange and the LATICRETE 3701 Fortified Mortar Bed. Lap LATICRETE Waterproofing/Anti-Fracture Fabric and LATICRETE Hydro Ban liquid up the wall when adjacent to  shower wall and over wall board.  When using LATICRETE Waterproofing/Anti-Fracture Fabric with LATICRETE Hydro Ban to bridge a gap larger than 1/8″ (3 mm) the gap should  be filled with a LATICRETE Polymer Modified Thin-Set (e.g. LATICRETE 254 Platinum) prior to waterproofing.  DO NOT waterproof the inside walls and bottom of the linear drain channels. 6. Take measures to protect grate (A) prior to tiling. Keeping the grate (A) in the channel (C), thin-set and tile on the waterproof membrane. Ensure tile allows for easy removal of the grate (A). The height should finish 1/16” (1.5 mm) higher than the grate height or tile in the tile-in drain grate. 7. If the grate has adjustable feet then adjust grate (A) height with adjustable feet (B) as needed. 8. When installing the LATICRETE Hydro Ban Linear Tile-In Drain Grate (A) will need to be primed with two coats of LATICRETE Hydro Ban prior to thin-setting the tile into the top grate.  The stainless steel from the linear drains needs to be clean and free of any grease, dirt or fingerprints prior to coating with Hydro Ban. 9. When the second coat of LATICRETE Hydro Ban is dry the installation can be tiled using a LATICRETE polymer fortified thin-set and grouted with LATICRETE PermaColor™  Grout  or LATICRETE SpectraLOCK® PRO Premium Grout.
