We inevitably associate a modern bathroom with minimalism. One of the elements that perfectly fit into this aesthetic is a linear drain. It is a practical and elegant solution at the same time.

It is installed in the shower cubicle, not using a shower tray, which is decided by an increasing number of investors. A properly selected solution ensures durability and comfort of use. Installation of a linear drain is worth planning already at the stage of starting a renovation. Changing and installing it during the use of the bathroom can cause us a lot more trouble.

Advantages of a linear drain
The task of any drain is to drain water from the shower stall. This happens thanks to the proper slope of the shower tray, or tile floor. With a linear drain, water flows toward a long strip that connects to the drain gutter.
We can install a linear drain in a shower that does not have a shower tray. It gives us a uniform surface, so no architectural barriers. This is a great convenience especially for the elderly and those with mobility limitations.
It is also a very aesthetically pleasing solution that allows us to easily maintain cleanliness. Good quality linear drains have removable fillings, so that, if necessary, we can efficiently clean the trap.
The drains come in different sizes and finishes, so we will match them to individual needs and interior style. The solution can have a grille that will not stand out against the tiles, or one that will provide contrast.
Some drains have an anti-odor system, which effectively protects against unpleasant odor from the sewer when the drain is dry.

In which bathroom will a linear drain work?
Lineardrains will work well in both large bath rooms and small bathrooms, which we want to optically enlarge. They will be a perfect solution both for those who like modern style, the one with a touch of glamour, or classic or Scandinavian-inspired design.
