Typical installations ( See also page 18 )
Access Covers with Linear DrainageSolid access covers may be fitted in channels where required, e.g. areas where a channel runs beneath equipment or walls. Coversmay be secured or non-secured, manufactured of materials to match our grating range and may be recessed to accept flooringmaterial where depth is sufficient. Please contact our Technical Services Dept. for details.
With optional tile upstand(SVFT profile shown).
Threshold DrainageLinear drainage channels provide an ideal solution to the problem of protecting building thresholds from the ingress of surface water.All of the channel profiles shown within this catalogue can be manufactured to suit specific requirements, with slots or gratings atsurface level; Wade ‘Streamline’ gratings are particularly suited to this application.
Design ConsiderationsWhen positioning channel adjacent to wall, ensure adequate allowance is made between channel and wall to cater for flooringmanufacturer’s edging detail. Channels can be manufactured with a level invert or in-built falls to suit requirements.

A. DRAINAGE CHANNEL
1. Remove any gratings andclamping frames from channel.
2. Taking care not to twist, turn thechannel upside down (baseuppermost).
3. If there is more than one sectionto the channel, apply siliconesealant to jointing flange facesor fit rubber gaskets if supplied,and securely bolt sectionstogether.
4. If connecting to a Wade gully,follow the instructions supplied.
5. Taking care not to twist, turn thechannel the correct way up andlower it into the trench and intoany installed gullies: ensure topedge of channel is flush withfinished floor level, use theadjustment legs when supplied.
6. Bend the build-in ties asnecessary.
7. Make the pipework joints belowthe channel.
Note: After positioning the channel itis recommended that a watertest be undertaken to check thatheight is correct, that, whereapplicable, the fall in thechannel works effectively, thatthere are no leakages from thechannel system and that thereare no signs of deformation orof damage to the channel whichmay have occurred duringinstallation. At this stage it maystill be possible for anynecessary rectification work totake place. Please consult ourTechnical Services Dept. if thissituation arises.
8. lf not supplied, provide and insertspacer bars across channel atapprox. 500mm centres. Spacerbars prevent channel beingsqueezed while backfill is beingcompacted and must not beremoved until backfill is set.
9. Fix the channel into position byfirst grouting build-in ties and anyadjustment legs firmly in place.

4. Thoroughly clean the gap betweenthe channel and angle frame,degrease and fill with apermanently elastic expansion jointsealant. If corrosive chemicals arelikely to be present, consult sealantmanufacturer on suitability.
D. SUPASLOT CHANNELS
The following additional notes/procedures apply.
1. The slot is covered with anadhesive tape to prevent debrisfalling into the channel duringinstallation. Do not remove thetape until installation is complete.

10. Taking care not to damageshow surfaces, place heavyweights on top of the channelprior to pouring backfill toprevent any lift or movement.
11. Backfill around the channelensuring that backfill materialflows evenly under and aroundthe channel such that no voidsare formed.
12. Remove immediately anymaterial which falls into thechannel.
13. When backfill is set, removespacer bars.

QUALITY AND CARE
23
Materials and finish of Wade gratings and channel, described below, are selected to provide lasting performance and to blendwith surroundings. The products require the minimum of maintenance, but periodic inspection should be carried out to ensureabsence of matter which could impede drainage. Measures set out below will sustain appearance and prolong service life.
STAINLESS STEEL - AUSTENITIC GRADE 304
Used for channels, gratings, gullies, filter buckets and funnels.A corrosion-resistant metal containing significant amounts of nickel and chromium. Clean with soap and warm water rinse andwipe dry. Gratings may also be cleaned in certain dishwashers. Under no circumstances treat with metal scouring pads, metalscrapers or wire wool as these will contaminate surfaces leaving rust spots.
NICKEL BRONZE - BS EN 1982 Satin finish
Used for gratings.A cast alloy with a fine grain effect which blends well with most floor finishes. The satin finish is generally maintained by theslight abrasive action of passing traffic. In unused areas the material will gradually tarnish. To restore lustre, apply a plain nylonscouring pad (not soap-filled) in the direction of the grain.
POLISHED BRONZE - BS EN 1982
Used for gratings.A cast alloy suited for finished floors where the rich, bronze colour complements the decor. The "mirror" finish is produced bypolishing. If left alone polished bronze will gradually tarnish. To restore lustre, use metal polish and buff with a cloth. The mirrorfinish must not be treated with any abrasive cleaning material otherwise the surface will be permanently scratched.
DUCTILE IRON - BS EN 1563 + 1564Used for gratings.
A casting with the ductility of steel, yet with more than twice the tensile strength of cast iron. A zinc anti-corrosion coating isapplied by galvanising or sherardizing.
CAST IRON - BS EN 1561Used for gratings and gullies.
A widely used metal in the drainage industry, its resistance to corrosion permits extended use under extreme conditions.Castings are coated with a high grade lacquer paint, applied by full immersion dip, to provide internal and external surfacecoverage. Paint will gradually wear off and is replaceable; oxidisation (surface rusting) is a natural process which does not weaken thematerial. A zinc anti-corrosion coating is applied to certain castings by galvanising or sherardizing.
CAST ALUMINIUM - LM6Used for gratings
An alloy chosen for its chemical resistance and durability
