Horizontal outlets exist for slab-on-grade construction (basement showers, ground floor slabs with no access below), renovations where the vertical drain stack can't be repositioned, and shower conversions where the existing drain line runs horizontally through the slab.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eWhat's included\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eKERDI-DRAIN PVC body with 2\" horizontal outlet\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePre-formed KERDI corner seals for floor-wall waterproof transitions\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe corner seals save you from cutting and folding KERDI at inside corners — critical areas where leaks start if the waterproofing isn't perfect\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eWhy the PVC body\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePVC connects to standard PVC drain lines with solvent cement — the same connection plumbers have used for decades. The large fleece-covered bonding flange on the drain body bonds directly into thin-set mortar, and your KERDI waterproofing membrane overlaps onto this flange to create the watertight seal. No caulk, no sealants at the tile level — water never has a path to the substrate.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eHorizontal vs. vertical outlet — which do you need?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVertical outlet:\u003c\/strong\u003e Standard for most showers — drain exits straight down through floor joists or slab to drain stack below\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHorizontal outlet:\u003c\/strong\u003e Required when plumbing must exit the side of the drain body rather than the bottom — slab-on-grade without below-slab access, or when drain line runs parallel to floor instead of below it\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eGrate sold separately\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is the drain body only.
