Wave Decorative Grate

The Wave grate features elongated offset slots that form a flowing wave pattern across the drain surface. This elegant design complements a wide variety of tile styles, from porcelain and ceramic to natural stone and large-format tile, creating a sophisticated focal point without overwhelming the shower floor.

Black Nickel Finish

The Black Nickel finish delivers a rich, reflective appearance that adds depth and sophistication to modern bathrooms. Its contemporary dark tone coordinates beautifully with black stainless fixtures, titanium finishes, matte black hardware, and other modern bathroom accents while providing outstanding durability.

Advantages of a Linear Shower Drain

Unlike traditional center drains, a linear shower drain allows greater flexibility in shower layout and floor design. It can be positioned along a wall, at the shower entrance, or in the center of the shower floor, making it ideal for curbless showers and barrier-free bathroom designs. The linear configuration simplifies floor sloping while reducing complicated tile cuts, creating a cleaner and more professional installation.

Manufactured from premium stainless steel, Quartz by ACO linear shower drains combine European-inspired engineering with dependable drainage performance. Designed for both residential and commercial applications, they provide a durable, low-maintenance drainage solution that delivers years of reliable service when installed according to the manufacturer's instructions.
