Hygienic drainage design principles
A floor gully and drainage channel guide wastewater from floors into the drainage pipe, safely for people and without damage to structures. It is the installation location, for example, a large catering kitchen, which primarily determines which variant of a gully or channel for the drainage has to be selected.
The most important factors in the design include:
- Wastewater quantity
- Traffic load and load capacity of the grating
- Slip resistance
- Waterproofing/seals
- Fire protection requirements
- Hygienic properties
