There is no doubt that whether you are creating a full wet room or a wet shower area, they offer the illusion of more space in the room. As the majority of British bathrooms tend to be small, wet rooms are a great solution. However, the most important part of a wet room is hidden from view, and it is imperative to select a system that is easy to install and that you are confident will provide a waterproof solution for many years.
In Aqua4Ma from Kudos, the unique system doesn’t require tanking prior to installation; the old-style membranes have been replaced with CNC-machined panels of extruded PVC, a material that’s totally waterproof and really quick to install. These panels come in different sizes and thicknesses (to help create structural features like seating and shelving) and with shower decks offering centre or end waste options. They can be cut to size and fitted directly to wooden or solid floors or to a raised plinth as required. With Aqua4Ma Evolution, the joints are solvent-welded together with a solvent paste to provide a one-piece permanent waterproof barrier that’s guaranteed for life. And their decks can be used on their own within a showering area, or they can be coupled with floor, skirting and wall panels to provide totally watertight room protection. They are also suitable to be used with underfloor heating.
One of the key features of the Aqua4Ma Evolution wet-room system is that it is suitable for immediate finishing with tiles, vinyl or micro-cement. The closed cell extruded PVC panels with solvent welding joints allow fitting and tiling within the day. The robust panels also allow tiles to be removed and replaced without compromising the waterproof integrity of the system. It negates the need for a membrane, and that really speeds up the installation process.
