WetBase Linear Drain Wetroom Shower Trays
WetBase® Linear Wet Room Trays — Linear Channel Drain Former with Installer-Positioned Outlet · 20-Year Guarantee
The installer-positioned outlet —
the installer's problem-solver.
Installers know the problem. You cut the floor opening, set the tray, then find the waste pipe position puts the drain outlet directly over a joist. With a fixed-outlet tray, that is a structural problem. With the WetBase Linear, the installer drills the waste outlet hole at any chosen point along the length of the channel trough — positioning it exactly where the waste pipe needs to go. No hacking, no compromise, no callbacks. On timber-joisted floors where joist positions are fixed and immovable, this turns what would be a day-long problem into a five-minute decision.
Beyond the outlet, the WetBase Linear delivers everything you expect: XPS foam core, pre-formed falls built into the former, cementitious top coat ready to tile over directly, and a 20-year manufacturer's guarantee. The linear channel drain gives a sleeker, more minimal drainage line across the tray than a point drain — and the reversible channel cover provides further orientation flexibility during fit-out.

A wet room former — also called a wetroom shower tray — is not the same as a conventional shower tray. A conventional tray sits on top of the floor in acrylic, stone resin or ceramic, and by definition creates a step or raised edge into the shower. A wet room former is recessed into the floor, tiled over flush with the surrounding surface — no step, no visible edge, no trip hazard. The WetBase Linear is a precision-engineered linear wet room former: set into the sub-floor, pre-formed drainage fall built in, cementitious top coat ready to tile over directly — the result is a level, fully tiled wet room floor with no raised threshold.
What distinguishes the WetBase Linear from the WetBase Standard is the drainage system. In place of a point drain, the Linear features a linear channel drain running across the tray — a sleek, minimal drainage line that gives a cleaner look to the finished installation. Most significantly, the drain outlet position is chosen by the installer during fit-out: the waste outlet hole is drilled at any chosen point along the length of the channel trough, allowing the waste pipe connection to be positioned exactly where it needs to go. On timber-joisted floors where joist positions are fixed and immovable, this transforms what can be a serious structural problem into a five-minute decision. The reversible channel cover adds further flexibility for tiling, allowing the orientation of the drain grating to be adapted to suit the installation.
On timber floors, underboarding is a vital installation step that must not be omitted. Without a rigid, stable sub-base, flex in the floor structure will cause stress on the former and risk long-term damage to the installation. The drain body must also be independently supported to prevent it dropping as the waste pipe settles — this is a critical detail on all tray types fitted to timber sub-floors and should be addressed during the rough-in stage before the former is set.
