- Page 2 Above are some of the trench drain components typical to an installation. Double check your order to ensure that you have all components particular to your job before be- ginning your installation. Contact Zurn ‘Flo-Thru’ at 716-665-1132 should additional material be required.
- Page 3 EXCAVATION Trench excavation must be 4 inches greater than the trench depth and a minimum width of 14 inches. Soft and/or shifting soil sub- strates may cause cracking of the concrete and consequent move- ment of the trench. It is critical that the concrete be poured on an adequate foundation.

Page 4: Overall Layout
OVERALL LAYOUT Upon completion of the trench excavation, the channels should be placed in order alongside the excavation and according to the job layout. Grates are not installed at this time. - Page 5 SETTING THE TRENCH Typically, a trench system is assembled from the outlet on back. Starting with the last section or catch basin, set the first channel utilizing Flo-Thru’s unique integral Rebar Clip anchoring system. Rebar clips are used on both sides of the length of each trench drain for easy attachment to 3/8”...

Page 6: Suspended Installation
SUSPENDED INSTALLATION An alternative means of installation is to suspend the trench drain as shown. Wooden braces to hang the trench run can be attached to the drain body through the grate lock down bars as illustrated above. Note: unless Grate Lockdown option is specified, the suspended installation method can not be utilized. - Page 7 JOINT CONNECTION Assembling the trench run is easy using ‘Flo-thru’s’ mechanical interlocking joints. Simply align the two mating ends of the trench sections and fasten with the hardware fasteners provided. A silicone caulk, or a construction adhesive, such as Liquid Nails, is recommended to be used at each joint as a sealer.
- Page 8 OUTLETS & ACCESSORIES To attach an end outlet or end cap, cut trench to de- sired length if necessary and attach with provided screws and a silicone caulk or a construction adhe- sive if desired. A bottom outlet is attached to the bottom side of the trench drain with provided screws and a silicone caulk or a con- struction adhesive if desired as shown below.
- Page 9 POURING THE CONCRETE Pour the concrete around the three sides of the trench drain. Be certain to ad- equately VIBRATE the concrete as it is being placed. Proper vibration will eliminate any unwanted voids within the concrete pour. Finish troweling should be done to set the top edge of the trench drain about 1/16” below the floor grade.
- Page 10 AFTER After the concrete has been poured, vibrated, and given sufficient time to dry, both the grates and grate lock down bolts must be installed. The center of the grate should straddle the toggle-in lockdown bar. The exception is when the channel is cut. To place these grates, line up the lock down hole in the grate with the lock down hole in the bar.
