MHt Hygiene Floor Drain
The MHt Hygiene Floor Drain is a high-performance drainage solution designed specifically to address common plumbing issues like foul odors, pest infestations, and structural water damage.
Based on your description, here is a detailed technical breakdown of how this system protects your building and maintains hygiene:
1. Advanced Material & Durability
● SS 201 Upper Grate: The top grate is crafted from Stainless Steel 201, which offers a high-strength, modern aesthetic. While it provides excellent durability for indoor use, the different available finishes (Polished, Matte Black, and Gold) allow it to blend seamlessly with premium bathroom tiles and fixtures.
● 6" x 6" Size: This larger square format is ideal for high-traffic or large-area bathrooms, ensuring faster water clearance compared to standard 4" drains.
2. The "Hygiene" Mechanism (Water Trap)
The core "hygiene" feature is the internal water trap (often called a hydro-lock or anti-cockroach trap).
● Odor Barrier: It maintains a constant water seal that acts as an airtight plug. This prevents "sewer gases" (methane and hydrogen sulfide) from rising into your living space.
● Pest Control: The trap creates a physical barrier that prevents insects, particularly cockroaches and silverfish, from crawling up through the drainage pipes.
3. Leak Prevention & Structural Safety
One of the most critical parts of the MHt design is the PVC Extension Coupling at the bottom:
● Deep Jointing: The extension coupling is designed to create a "deep-socket" joint with your underground sewage pipes. This ensures that water flows directly into the main line without seeping into the concrete slab or surrounding masonry.
● Building Protection: By preventing "silent leaks" at the joint, this drain protects the building’s foundation from dampness (seepage), which can lead to mold growth and the weakening of the floor structure over time.
4. Technical Specifications & Versatility
● Coupling Sizes: The standard bottom outlet is 4 inches, which matches major sewage lines. However, MHt provides 3-inch extension couplings as well, offering the flexibility to adapt to different plumbing layouts without needing bulky external reducers.
● Design Options: Beyond functionality, it is available in various aesthetic designs to match modern interior trends
In addition to the standard grated design, MHT offers the Tile-In (Invisible) Hygiene Drain. This is a premium (2-in-1) solution that provides all the technical hygiene benefits mentioned earlier while allowing the drain to virtually disappear into your bathroom floor.
Here are the specific details of the MHt Tile-In Hygiene Drain:
1. "Invisible" Tile-In Aesthetic
● Reversible Tray: The upper part consists of a deep stainless steel tray. You can either use the flat metal side (for a Polished, Matte Black, or Gold look) or flip it over to insert a cut piece of your actual floor tile.
● Seamless Look: Once the tile is laid inside the tray, only a thin 5mm perimeter slot is visible. This allows your floor pattern to remain uninterrupted, making the bathroom look larger and more modern.
2. Integrated Hygiene & Trap System
Even with the "invisible" top, the drain still includes MHt's core hygiene technology:
● Anti-Odor Water Trap: Located directly beneath the tile tray, it maintains a water seal that prevents sewer gases from entering the room.
● Insect Shield: The trap acts as a permanent barrier against cockroaches and other pests that typically enter through open drains.
● Hair Catcher / Strainer: A secondary stainless steel mesh sits inside to catch debris before it enters the plumbing, preventing clogs.
3. Build & Connectivity
● Material: Entirely constructed from SS 201 (or SS 304 upon request) to handle the weight of the tile and the constant exposure to water without warping.
● PVC Extension Coupling: Just like the grated model, it features the 4" or 3" PVC coupling. This ensures a watertight, deep-joint connection to your underground sewage system, preventing the "hidden leakage" that causes dampness in building foundations.
● Size: Available in the standard 6" x 6" square format, which is perfect for high-flow showers.
