Drainage details decide whether a bathroom reads as designed or as installed. AERLO supports architects and designers with the technical documentation needed to detail the drain properly at design stage.
Design Support
Tile-insert and invisible options
For floors where the drain should disappear, we supply tile-insert Linear drains where the grate accepts the project tile or stone.
Finish matching
Brushed stainless steel, polished, matte black and PVD finishes — specified to sit with the project’s metal scheme.
Technical documentation
Dimensioned drawings, installation details and specification sheets, available on request.
Custom lengths
Where the module does not fit the design, custom lengths are available so the grate runs wall to wall.
Details That Decide the Design
| Design decision | Impact on drainage |
|---|---|
| Single-plane fall vs four-way | Determines drain position and floor slope |
| Tile or stone thickness | Determines frame height and adjustment range |
| Level access or stepped entry | Determines flow rate requirement |
| Grate finish and length | Determines visual weight of the drain line |
| Natural stone floor | Tile-insert grate is typically required for continuity |
