Overview & General Product Description of the wedi Fundo Shower Systems
The wedi Fundo Riolito Modular Shower System offers full warranty coverage like all wedi Shower Systems, thanks to its consistent and inherently waterproof core, and
its range of specially engineered components. Fundo Riolito is internally waterproof due to its wedi XPS foam‘s closed cell structure, and naturally protects against mold or
mildew like every wedi XPS foam based product. It is fast and clean to cut and fit custom designs while prefabrication reduces installation time significantly. The base features
a strong and pre-sloped surface, allowing for tiling immediately whether you choose mosaic tile or large format tile. The wedi Fundo Riolito Modular is designed with two
elements: a line module with integrated drain, and a sloped extension panel to provide the shower base. The single and one-directional slope allows for drain positioning close
to a wall and is ideal for the use of large format tile without the need for miter cuts. Fundo Riolito Modular is commonly installed with a curb but can be placed in curbless
designs where a recessed floor is available and accommodates the increased depth due to the one sided built up of the shower base thickness due to the one-directional
slope. Pre-sloped extension panels are available so that no limit exists for creating any size or shape for custom shower designs. Fundo Riolito Modular is insulating, creating
a thermal barrier that can prevent cold from transferring through the tiled surface, and make floor heating systems more efficient. It also has outstanding moisture and water
exposure control compared to traditional mortar bed installations or other currently known methods for building showers, including the use of sheet or liquid waterproofing
membranes which can be very thin and vulnerable, or they may offer water absorption into thin-set bonded seam areas. The wedi Fundo Riolito Modular comes equipped
with a wedi drain unit „Click and Seal“, designed for safe performance and to ensure a perfect tiling experience. Key features of wedi’s Fundo Click and Seal™ drain are:
A safe compression fit seal to the entire range of 2 in. floor waste pipes whether made of PVC, ABS, or Cast Iron. Special sealing gaskets are available for connections
to Copper waste pipe.
All drain parts function in a mechanical, simple and controlled process – with no glues or sealants needed
“Click and Seal” mechanism for simple and safe assembly.
wedi Fundo Click and Seal™ drain allows for a connection to a floor waste pipe that is cut flush or 1/8 inch above the subfloor’s surface, and it can connect safely to
slightly angled pipes (up to 5 Degree angle). Please always test the seal of a drain to waste pipe connection.
wedi drain covers can be adjusted during tiling to meet all tile designs perfectly: vertical adjustment from as low as 3/16 inch to 1 inch above shower base surface to
accommodate thinner and thicker tile or stone fishes.
Provided that the waste pipe plumbing is open, wedi Fundo Riolito Modular drain ond drain cover flow rates exceed 14 gallons/minute.
These added values and perfection in details eliminate the technical concerns in shower installations. But this is not where wedi shower systems stop offering added value.
The wedi Fundo shower system adds to your productivity and enables you to provide real value to your customers: Our wedi Fundo Shower systems reduce the installation
time for just the shower floor from a 2 – 3 day process (includes drying times) to only 30 minutes when compared to traditional methods built with pre slope, vinyl liner and
final mortar bed. wedi helps you to turn showers into service quicker, cleaner, and safer. Especially for our contractors, Fundo Riolito helps to get to setting tile faster and on
a much more consistent and tile friendly surface. Customers will appreciate the “no noise and no dirt and dust” installation. The wedi products do not contain harmful ingredients
providing peace of mind to contractors and end users. The exact and consistently shaped slope fields support perfection in tile setting and design. The cement based resin
surface coatings on our products provide a great bond surface for any tile, stone and many other materials. All good quality tile adhesives recommended for use in wet
area applications, and made of cement – or epoxy based, work great on wedi Fundo Riolito Modular. All this under one warranty for the entire shower from floor to wall.
