As bathrooms break away from boring, comfort and beauty have become must-haves, instead of nice-to-haves. Bathrooms are now areas of retreat an oasis, really, in the comfort of home. Design freedom Schluter -KERDI-LINE is an elegant, low profile linear floor drain specifically designed for bonded waterproofing assemblies in showers, steam rooms, wet rooms, and other applications that require waterproofing and drainage. Shower bases must be sloped from all directions to point drains, therefore limiting tile selection to mosaics or other relatively small-format tiles. However, shower bases can be sloped on a single plane to the KERDI-LINE linear drain, which enables the use of attractive large-format tiles. KERDI-LINE can be installed adjacent to walls or at intermediate locations, further increasing design options. KERDI-LINE is also suitable for use in barrier-free applications, including areas subject to wheelchair traffic, which offer unique benefits in both utility and aesthetics. For some, limited mobility due to disability or age makes barrier-free showers a necessity for access. Other homeowners want to plan for the future, ensuring they have an accessible bathroom that allows them to age in their home with security and independence. In barrierfree applications using KERDI-LINE, the large-format tiles on the bathroom floor can be continued onto the shower base, creating a seamless transition and furthering the open-concept design. 3

Build it. Tile it. Love it. With KERDI-BOARD, you can build your bathroom any way you want it. Construct customized elements such as shower benches, partitions, and vanities. Seal joints and corners with KERDI-BAND waterproofing strips and KERDI-KERECK preformed corners for a completely sealed assembly. 7
