Overview & General Product Description of the wedi Fundo Shower Systems
All wedi Waterproof Shower Systems including point and linear drain models offer reliable, cost-efficient solutions for construct-
ing 100% waterproof and mold proof showers. The product systems are entirely waterproof due to it's XPS extruded polystyrene
foam core. These systems are easy and clean to install due to it's high prefabrication level. They open up a whole new world of
design possibilities for showers, wet areas and baths when customized to fit your jobsite requirements.
wedi Shower Systems blend the traditional values of design flexibility and robustness as previously only enjoyed with mortar bed
installations, while offering added values that come with state-of-the-art material and manufacturing technologies. These added
values come in form of many performance advantages. Especially over traditional mortar bed installations or over other currently
known methods for building showers such as those using sheet – or liquid waterproofing membranes in an attempt to manage
water exposure. The most unique advantage is the complete and natural core waterproofness of the wedi product and it's entire
assembly. Every detail of the assembly is part of the wedi waterproofing approach: even down to the factory integrated drain
parts. The concept of the wedi Fundo Shower System's water management describes a true "water out" performance. Neither
products nor the assembly of the wedi Fundo shower system is subjected to the risks so commonly found in other methods of
shower installation. When installing wedi Fundo Shower Systems in combination with wedi building panels, the proprietary wedi
joint sealant and any of our curbs, niches or seats accessories, you can eliminate the following worries altogether:
No overlapping sheet waterproofing seams with just thinset in between
No risk of forming pinholes as with installation of very thin liquid membranes
No weepholes and clogging as with liner installations
No liner cracks due to aging or exposure to elements
No risky liner seams in larger size showers nor any risky corner liner tapes
No mold or discoloration worries as with absorbing and permanently wet mortar beds
These added values and its detail perfections eliminate the technical concerns in shower installations. But this is not where wedi
shower systems stop offering it's added values: 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, safer. 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. Using any cement based thinset adhesives in installation. The
insulation properties of the extruded foam core of our wedi systems keep the tile warmer on the floor and add to better insulation
of the wall. And all this under one warranty for the entire shower from floor to wall.
The wedi Fundo Riolito neo Linear Drain Shower System
wedi's Fundo Riolito neo linear drain shower base features the only fully sealed and factory integrated waterproof drain assembly
available in the market of customizable shower floor systems with linear drainage. It is available in two design options: The first
option includes models featuring a level shower base perimeter provided by a 4-way slope. These models provide for a perfect
installation when recessing the base into a subfloor where a flush to the floor entry is required. The second option includes a
model featuring a true one way slope towards the linear drain.
The large, tileable and perfectly sloped areas around the linear drain make the tile installation clean and professional. These
unique prefabricated and directly tileable units allow water to drain away through a narrow gap between the cover plate and
adjacent tiling. The Riolito neo shower base is available with three linear drain cover options including finished and tileable
options. The covers can be adjusted in height to match your tile or stone. The system comes with helpful accessories such as spacers
which are temporarily used in the drain channel to allow for a perfect finish of tile edges with drain trench.
Several models with 4 way slope fields provide for a perfect installation when recessing the base into a subfloor where a flush to
the floor entry is required. The second option includes models with a true one way slope towards the linear drain. This latter op-
tion is especially designed to accommodate tub to shower conversions without the need to ever move the floor drain pipe.
