Before Slot Drain®
, grating, trench drains and four-sloped floors were the standards. Slot Drain®
changed
surface drainage forever by providing the first pre-sloped, prefabricated drain system.
The linear slot eliminates traditional grates that can be weak, trap bacteria and are difficult to clean,
making Slot Drain®
the most durable, sanitary and cost-effective drainage system available. It’s applicable
wherever floor or ground surfaces are subject to fluids, or have frequent cleaning requirements.
Most Slot Drain®
applications are slab on grade, but it can also work in structural slabs and hollow core
slabs. Slot Drain®
replaces grated trench drains, with a self-cleaning system at a significantly reduced cost.
Slot Drain®
was patented in 1988 and was the first floor drain on the market in North America to utilize
the innovative prefabricated, pre-sloped and slotted concept, reducing construction labour costs. Since then,
it has been installed successfully in hundreds of applications, satisfying customers and construction
professionals alike.
Four-sloped floors, or contoured floors, are replaced with effective, low maintenance and low cost,
two-sloped floors. Gone are the metal gratings and metal covers that are a nuisance to remove and clean.
Slot Drain®
s available in stainless steel, fiberglass and galvanized steel, with T-Sections, 90° and 45°
elbows to go around corners and other obstacles.
Without grating, Slot Drain®
is perfect for high traffic and heavy traffic areas and processing facilities
with frequent cleaning and inspection requirements.
Slot Drain®
is made to suit your special requirements. Adaptations have been made to Slot Drain®
to
accommodate specific depth or flow requirements, drain lengths and handling of process water.
Slot Drain®
is available to be shipped worldwide and arrives fully assembled, ready to be installed.
Slot Drain®
is a one-piece, built-in, sloped,
open floor drain/surface drain system that is
comparable in price yet superior in many ways.

Section 03

NEW CONSTRUCTION
03.1 System Installation
It is a one-piece, built-in, sloped drainage system with a linear slot in the floor surface at a constant elevation. The drain
itself is mounted in the floor assembly and integrated with the floor during the concrete pour. Forming, framing, welding
and edging are all eliminated and screeding is reduced to two slopes instead of four.
Drain sections arrive fully assembled and ready to install — no grating to screw on, no anchors or drains to weld,
simply bolt the drain ends together, then pour your floor.
It takes two people approximately 20 to 30 minutes to install one 15 foot section.
Slot Drain®
is pre-sloped and fully assembled.
It is easy to install, reducing labour costs and
minimizing chances of error.
1)	Excavate a trench allowing for room underneath
and on both sides of Slot Drain®
. There should be
a minimum of 6 of concrete surrounding the drain.
2)	It is recommended to pre-pour a concrete pad
underneath the Slot Drain pit so it can be properly
secured. If no pad is poured, peg the sump pit down
(using the flat bar mounting brackets bolted to the
sides of the sump and wooden stakes) before
Slot Drain®
is connected.
3)	Install all Slot Drain pits and piping, making sure
that the Slot Drain pit walls are reinforced to prevent
sidewall bowing.
4)	Bolt the last (deepest) section of Slot Drain®
to the
Slot Drain®
pit. If a Slot Drain®
pit is not being used,
start at the deepest section. Bolt all remaining sections
of Slot Drain®
together using the numbered flanges as
a guide. For example, if you have a section 102,
a section 203, a section 304 and a Slot Drain®
pit.
First, bolt flange 4 of section 304 to the Slot Drain®
pit side marked 4. Next, bolt flange 3 of section 304
to flange 3 of section 203. Finally, bolt flange 2
of section 203 to flange 2 of section 102. Use a
continuous bead of silicone sealant between
all bolted sections.
5)	Use wooden stakes to set the desired elevation of drain
sections. Secure drain sections to the stakes with the
mounting holes provided on the leveling brackets.
6)	Once Slot Drain®
is secured and the appropriate
elevation is achieved, for structural support, tie the
rebar from the floor grid into the rebar/leveling bars
on the drain assembly. Cover the opening with the
duct tape, or insert Styrofoam if needed.
7)	To ensure that Slot drain will not float, it is
recommended that the concrete be poured in two
stages. Once adequate time for the first concrete pour
to set has elapsed, the floor slab can be completed.
The use of a pencil vibrator is strongly recommended
to make sure that the concrete has completely
surrounded Slot Drain®
, leaving no bubbles or voids.
8)	Once the concrete slab is firm, first remove the tape
or Styrofoam from the slot and then break out all metal
tabs to ensure a continuous open slot.
Using the paddle, clean out the Slot Drain®
.
INSTALLATION | PRODUCT CATALOGUE 35
Slot Drain Systems arrives at the site in fully assembled
sections and is ready to be installed.
1)	 Layout and mark drain location on existing slab.
2)	 Cut 24 wide trench in existing slab.
3)	Excavate the trench allowing for room underneath
and on both sides of Slot Drain®
. There should be
a minimum of 6 of concrete surrounding the drain.
4)	Drill and dowel into the sides of the existing cut slab.
Approximately 16– 24 on both sides.
5)	It is recommended to pre-pour a concrete pad
underneath the Slot Drain pit so it can be properly
secured. If no pad is poured, peg the sump pit down
(using the flat bar mounting brackets bolted to the
sides of the sump and wooden stakes) before
Slot Drain®
is connected.
6)	Install all Slot Drain®
pits and piping, making sure
that the Slot Drain pit walls are reinforced to
prevent sidewall bowing.
7)	Bolt the last (deepest) section of Slot Drain®

start at the deepest section. Bolt all remaining sections
of Slot Drain®
together using the numbered flanges as

a section 203, a section 304 and a Slot Drain pit.
RETROFIT
03.2 System Installation
First, bolt flange 4 of section 304 to the Slot Drain®
pit side marked 4. Next, bolt flange 3 of section 304 to
flange 3 of section 203. Finally, bolt flange 2 of section
203 to flange 2 of section 102. Use a continuous
bead of silicone sealant between all bolted sections.
8)	Use wooden stakes to set the desired elevation of
drain sections. Secure drain sections to the stakes with
the mounting holes provided on the leveling brackets.
9)	Once Slot Drain®
is secured and the appropriate
elevation is achieved, for structural support, tie the
rebar from the dowels and floor grid into the rebar/
leveling bars on the drain assembly. Cover the opening
with the duct tape, or insert Styrofoam if needed.
10)	To ensure that Slot Drain®
will not float, it is
recommended that the concrete be poured in two

  • 5. PRODUCT CATALOGUE 3 Before Slot Drain® , grating, trench drains and four-sloped floors were the standards. Slot Drain® changed surface drainage forever by providing the first pre-sloped, prefabricated drain system. The linear slot eliminates traditional grates that can be weak, trap bacteria and are difficult to clean, making Slot Drain® the most durable, sanitary and cost-effective drainage system available. It’s applicable wherever floor or ground surfaces are subject to fluids, or have frequent cleaning requirements. Most Slot Drain® applications are slab on grade, but it can also work in structural slabs and hollow core slabs. Slot Drain® replaces grated trench drains, with a self-cleaning system at a significantly reduced cost. Slot Drain® was patented in 1988 and was the first floor drain on the market in North America to utilize the innovative prefabricated, pre-sloped and slotted concept, reducing construction labour costs. Since then, it has been installed successfully in hundreds of applications, satisfying customers and construction professionals alike. Four-sloped floors, or contoured floors, are replaced with effective, low maintenance and low cost, two-sloped floors. Gone are the metal gratings and metal covers that are a nuisance to remove and clean. Slot Drain® s available in stainless steel, fiberglass and galvanized steel, with T-Sections, 90° and 45° elbows to go around corners and other obstacles. Without grating, Slot Drain® is perfect for high traffic and heavy traffic areas and processing facilities with frequent cleaning and inspection requirements. Slot Drain® is made to suit your special requirements. Adaptations have been made to Slot Drain® to accommodate specific depth or flow requirements, drain lengths and handling of process water. Slot Drain® is available to be shipped worldwide and arrives fully assembled, ready to be installed. Slot Drain® is a one-piece, built-in, sloped, open floor drain/surface drain system that is comparable in price yet superior in many ways. II The Company ABOUT SLOT DRAIN®

  • 36. 34 SLOTDRAINSYSTEMS.COM NEW CONSTRUCTION 03.1 System Installation It is a one-piece, built-in, sloped drainage system with a linear slot in the floor surface at a constant elevation. The drain itself is mounted in the floor assembly and integrated with the floor during the concrete pour. Forming, framing, welding and edging are all eliminated and screeding is reduced to two slopes instead of four. Drain sections arrive fully assembled and ready to install — no grating to screw on, no anchors or drains to weld, simply bolt the drain ends together, then pour your floor. It takes two people approximately 20 to 30 minutes to install one 15 foot section. Slot Drain® is pre-sloped and fully assembled. It is easy to install, reducing labour costs and minimizing chances of error. 1) Excavate a trench allowing for room underneath and on both sides of Slot Drain® . There should be a minimum of 6 of concrete surrounding the drain. 2) It is recommended to pre-pour a concrete pad underneath the Slot Drain pit so it can be properly secured. If no pad is poured, peg the sump pit down (using the flat bar mounting brackets bolted to the sides of the sump and wooden stakes) before Slot Drain® is connected. 3) Install all Slot Drain pits and piping, making sure that the Slot Drain pit walls are reinforced to prevent sidewall bowing. 4) Bolt the last (deepest) section of Slot Drain® to the Slot Drain® pit. If a Slot Drain® pit is not being used, start at the deepest section. Bolt all remaining sections of Slot Drain® together using the numbered flanges as a guide. For example, if you have a section 102, a section 203, a section 304 and a Slot Drain® pit. First, bolt flange 4 of section 304 to the Slot Drain® pit side marked 4. Next, bolt flange 3 of section 304 to flange 3 of section 203. Finally, bolt flange 2 of section 203 to flange 2 of section 102. Use a continuous bead of silicone sealant between all bolted sections. 5) Use wooden stakes to set the desired elevation of drain sections. Secure drain sections to the stakes with the mounting holes provided on the leveling brackets. 6) Once Slot Drain® is secured and the appropriate elevation is achieved, for structural support, tie the rebar from the floor grid into the rebar/leveling bars on the drain assembly. Cover the opening with the duct tape, or insert Styrofoam if needed. 7) To ensure that Slot drain will not float, it is recommended that the concrete be poured in two stages. Once adequate time for the first concrete pour to set has elapsed, the floor slab can be completed. The use of a pencil vibrator is strongly recommended to make sure that the concrete has completely surrounded Slot Drain® , leaving no bubbles or voids. 8) Once the concrete slab is firm, first remove the tape or Styrofoam from the slot and then break out all metal tabs to ensure a continuous open slot. Using the paddle, clean out the Slot Drain® .
  • 37. INSTALLATION | PRODUCT CATALOGUE 35 Slot Drain Systems arrives at the site in fully assembled sections and is ready to be installed. 1) Layout and mark drain location on existing slab. 2) Cut 24 wide trench in existing slab. 3) Excavate the trench allowing for room underneath and on both sides of Slot Drain® . There should be a minimum of 6 of concrete surrounding the drain. 4) Drill and dowel into the sides of the existing cut slab. Approximately 16– 24 on both sides. 5) It is recommended to pre-pour a concrete pad underneath the Slot Drain pit so it can be properly secured. If no pad is poured, peg the sump pit down (using the flat bar mounting brackets bolted to the sides of the sump and wooden stakes) before Slot Drain® is connected. 6) Install all Slot Drain® pits and piping, making sure that the Slot Drain pit walls are reinforced to prevent sidewall bowing. 7) Bolt the last (deepest) section of Slot Drain® to the Slot Drain® pit. If a Slot Drain® pit is not being used, start at the deepest section. Bolt all remaining sections of Slot Drain® together using the numbered flanges as a guide. For example, if you have a section 102, a section 203, a section 304 and a Slot Drain pit. RETROFIT 03.2 System Installation First, bolt flange 4 of section 304 to the Slot Drain® pit side marked 4. Next, bolt flange 3 of section 304 to flange 3 of section 203. Finally, bolt flange 2 of section 203 to flange 2 of section 102. Use a continuous bead of silicone sealant between all bolted sections. 8) Use wooden stakes to set the desired elevation of drain sections. Secure drain sections to the stakes with the mounting holes provided on the leveling brackets. 9) Once Slot Drain® is secured and the appropriate elevation is achieved, for structural support, tie the rebar from the dowels and floor grid into the rebar/ leveling bars on the drain assembly. Cover the opening with the duct tape, or insert Styrofoam if needed. 10) To ensure that Slot Drain® will not float, it is recommended that the concrete be poured in two stages. Once adequate time for the first concrete pour to set has elapsed, the floor slab can be completed. The use of a pencil vibrator is strongly recommended to make sure that the concrete has completely surrounded Slot Drain® , leaving no bubbles or voids. 11) Once the concrete slab is firm, first remove the tape or Styrofoam from the slot and then break out all metal tabs to ensure a continuous open slot. Using the paddle, clean out the Slot Drain® .
