Application

Suitable for balcony and terrace areas. Balconies that protrude less than 2.5 m from the wall can be edge drained by sloping away from the wall, without the requirement for any other water collection areas. Aqua-Channel was designed exactly for this, allowing the lowering of cost of the overall balcony by removing the need for a soffit to achieve drainage. The drainage slope can be generated either by the fabricator, or EnviroBuild can provide bespoke “steel drainage supports” designed to your exact requirements. We can also provide shims of varying thicknesses, which sit below joists and provide a slope.

150 Aqua-Channel Threshold Drainage Channel.

Guidance for specification option:

150 Aqua-Channel boards create a continuous surface, with patented interlocking attachments and drainage channels which are designed to mitigate the capillary effect. Bespoke steel slopes, or a system using joist-hangers and shims of varying sizes can be used to create a slope. Threshold and side drainage components are used to collect water. 150 Aqua-Channel also has the ability to use screws suitable for thick steel beams.


With patented interlocking attachments, the 150 Aqua-Channel

can have either a continuous appearance or a gapped appearance

(aesthetic gaps at every 150 mm). This, coupled with in-built drainage pieces, makes this deck an incredibly versatile option.


Properties:

  • 3600 x 54 x 21 mm (length x width x height).
  • Bespoke sizes available with orders over 1000 kg.
  • Manufactured from aluminium 6063-T6.
