Providing the flush plates are mounted using the correct bracket, Tece flush plates simply just clip in and out of location. The flush plates are held firmly in situ and are not likely to fall out unless the mounting bracket is damaged or faulty. This makes the products very easy to remove, clean and refit, [...]
Yes, Tece cisterns are compatible with rimless toilets.
The Tece cisterns are manufactured to EN14055 which is an international standard, and Tece units fulfil this standard. If water is splashing out of the pan, this is most likely a manufacturing problem with the pan.
Yes, Tece have developed a set of throttle controls that can be fitted into the water outlet locator cage in the bottom of the cistern. There is also a water volume outlet controller switch on the rear of the water outlet module.
It is very important to use waterproof tanking. Waterproofing is critical to ensuring a leak free waterproof wetroom enclosure. In order to ensure a waterproof wetroom, tanking must be fitted prior to tiling.
There are many different adhesives that could be used, but we would advise (based on the information supplied by the manufacturer), a cementitious powder adhesive (not Pre Mixed), such as flexible tile adhesive. This can be used on all Waterproofing membranes that we supply.
When fitting Aquaguard, fit the drain in its required location. Butt the eforms up to the drain leaving a 5mm gap between the flange of the drain and the beginning of the eform. Make sure that the waterproof membrane is laid on top of the eform rather than underneath. Lay down a thin but consistant [...]
All the way to the ceiling ideally. This would offer the best protection against water in all forms including steam, as this can get between tiles and stonework. As soon as steam hits any cool surface it will condense, and this could be on the back end of tiles of stonework.
Ideally yes. While not critical, we would suggest that waterproofing should be fitted to the entire bathroom area, as steam will most likely cover every wall. The rest of the bathroom area will not be subject to the same volume of water as the shower area, but over time, water seepage may become an issue.
Firstly, how much of the wetroom area do you want to waterproof? Just the shower area or the entire bathroom? To work out how much waterproofing you will need, work out the square meterage of the floor area and each wall that you wish to waterproof, and add them together allowing 10% extra for wastage. [...]
