Water plays huge part in multiple tasks which we perform on daily basis. We drink it, swim in it, and yes YOU GUESSED IT we shower with it. Water that enters the shower gets washed down the drain to prevent our bathrooms from becoming excessively wet and slippery. But have you ever thought about the mechanism by which all that water then goes into the drain? Enter the world of undermount bath sinks! Now, let's take a closer look at what these linear drains are and how they can add beauty and functionality to your bathroom.
Regular drain for showers or floors can be found in most bathrooms. These are generally round or square drains which usually cover the area in the center. Arrangements like these are not true with undermount lavatory sinks. They are thin and stretched out like a ruler. This specific form enables the water to run toward the drain more readily and much faster. This design allows the water to channel through more swiftly, which is particularly useful in flood events. It also keeps your bathroom free from safety hazards and prevents the wet floor which is sometimes slippery.
That leads me to the next really great thing about linear drains: how they can elevate your bathroom appearance. Ordinary drains can be quite dull in appearance and they will spoil the beauty of your bathroom. In contrast, linear drains can disappear among the rest of your floor or shower design. What this means, is that you can have a clean and sleek looking floor or shower without an ugly drain breaking it up in the middle. Additionally, since they are created to help with smooth water flow, they can also prevent any backs up and you would have a cleaner looking bathroom as well as feeling more sanitary.
Linear drains are a lifeline, especially if you have an unusual or unconventional shower or flooring design in your bathroom. So, if for example you have a spacious walk-in shower then water may spill outside and just a simple-round/square drain cannot catch it all up. That is where linear drain can come in, it is a wonderful option because it spans a greater space and ensures that all water drains properly. Likewise with unique appearance flooring types like a ceramic tile or rock, even one of these days provided by grout, A regularly drain will seem critical. While still making a major contribution by draining water, a linear drain can actually blend into your design.
Probably the easiest part of linear drains is their installation and maintenance. If you are working with less space in installing the drain, traditional drains can sometimes be difficult to fit. This makes linear drains significantly easier to install as they can be positioned along the wall – or even in a corner, which gives you much more flexible placement options. They are also much easier for cleaning purposes. Most of the linear drains already have an easy removable and washable cover. It makes it significantly easier to keep your bathroom clean and keeps the clog or grime that may take place over a longer period of time.
