SoundDown EnduraBase Pre-formed Shower Base
Description

Endurabase is Build Anatomy's versatile, level-entry shower solution designed for all sizes and applications — including aceessible and wet areas. It works seamlessly with SoundDown acoustic flooring systems and its custom-sized, pre-formed slope and simultaneous installation ensure no performance gaps. It can be finished with tiles or vinyls, and works with heated flooring systems.

Key Features
  • Custom size pre-formed shower base, customisable in length, width and height
  • Customisable drain location
  • Integration of wet areas into acoustic flooring system
  • Level-entry, seamless transition to wet areas. Practical substrate for clean transitions across areas.
  • Pre-formed code compliant fall guarantees drainage
  • Sits underneath floor finish of choice
  • Compatible with heated flooring systems
  • Fully adaptable, can be trimmed onsite if necessary, allowing for building discrepancies
  • Fully integrates with SoundDown acoustic flooring systems.
Scope of Use

EnduraBase is intended for use as a water-proof ready shower sub-base, that sits on a flooring substrate and is to be covered with a waterproofing system and floor finish of choice. It is not intended to be left exposed.

Intended scope of use includes:

  • Tiled showers
  • Vinyl-finish wet areas
  • Accessible wet area applications
Limitations on Use

To meet the stringent requirements of E3/AS1, the designer must specify a suitable waterproofing system to be installed on top of this sub base. The surface element must be continuous, impervious and be either covered or have the joints sealed. An integrally waterproof sheet material such as polyvinylchloride will meet the acceptable solutions (E3/AS1).

SoundDown recommends using the Tecknokolla waterproofing system; this system not only meets the requirements of E3/AS1 but provides a warranted solution for wet areas.

Where specifying an alternate waterproofing system, consult the waterproofing manufacturer to confirm suitability of products and warranty terms and conditions.

Statement of Building Code Compliance
  • E3 Internal Moisture: Meets E3/AS1
  • B2 Durability
In-Service History

Endurabase has been specified in a number of retirement villages, multi-unit residential projects, and commercial offices with accessible bathrooms in New Zealand. 

Other Performance Attributes
  • Peace of mind, backed by SoundDown warranty
  • Pre-formed code compliant fall guarantees drainage
