4-Way Fall

Our Square formers are available as a 4-way fall option only. Integrated falls come from each corner of the former, and work well with larger bathroom areas.

Suitable For

SECTORS

Suitable for all settings, including residential new builds or renovations, hotels, hostels, gyms, spas, care homes, prisons and student accommodation.

FLOOR TYPES

The Square former can be used on any floor build up, be it timber joists, concrete or beam and block.

FLOOR FINISHES

The 4-way fall is perfect for use with mosaic tiles, however it is also compatible with large format tiles (mitre cuts required).

UNDERFLOOR HEATING

Compatible with wet or electric underfloor heating.

Electric mats sit on top of our former (not laid within 300mm of waste) and wet systems (pipes with water running through them, connected to main central heating system) should be laid underneath the former.

 

Installation

OTL wet room floors are easy to install. We have to hand PDF instructions, an installation video, and help at the end of the phone from our friendly team.

The 4-way fall former will butt up against the floor on all sides, providing complete level access.

Cleaning & Maintenance

It is recommended that regular routine maintenance should be carried out at least every 3 months (this may need to be done more frequently depending on usage).

OTL provide you with all the tools you need to make regular cleaning quick and easy.

Our maintenance guide can be found in our downloads section.
