Hello,

I am currently renovating our basement bathroom, which needs to be completely redone due to water damage.
Right now, I am having a problem with the shower.
I would like to install a walk-in (level-entry) shower, but I am unsure about the dimensions and the waste pipe connection, and I hope someone can help me.

If I remove the screed, I have about 58 to 60 mm (2.3 to 2.4 inches) up to the top edge of the screed.
Is that enough for a level-entry shower?
Additionally, the waste pipe connection is probably too high; is it possible to modify it?
I have attached a few pictures for clarification.

I would be very grateful for any information.

In my opinion, it should work. For the shower drainage channel (check with Kessel), use the Linearis Comfort, which has a height of 66mm (2.6 inches). You can chisel out the floor to make up for the missing approximately 10mm (0.4 inches).
If I look at the drainage situation, the ultra-shallow model from Kessel should work—measure to be sure. If not, do you have a room beneath the shower area? If yes, then use the vertical drain from Kessel, with or without a channel, and connect it to the drain pipe on the floor below.

Please do not forget the fire protection for something like this! A fire collar must be installed around it!

Hello

Where does a fire protection collar need to be installed?
And why?

Hello,

As far as I know, a collar must be installed around the shower drain pipe because it is a combustible plastic pipe and considered a pipe penetration.
