Success
 The economic alternative to cast iron drains.
Ecoguss the new material, is becoming more and more accepted. Drains made from Eco-
guss combine all the advantages of polymer drains, such as low weight and no corrosion,
with the advantages of cast iron drains such as sound insulation and heat resistance but wit-
hout having to accept their specific disadvantages.
For this reason, more designers and architects are deciding to use this material of the future.
In addition to the sought-after Ecoguss deck drains, KESSEL now also offers the parking
deck drain.
Ecoguss the property drain
for hospitals, sanatoriums,
nursing homes, car parks,
swimming pools
and many other applications!

 General-Fellgiebel barracks in Pcking 70 Ecoguss -
Reference properties

New generation
of drains for pro-
perty constructi-
on
When dealing with the renovation or new construction of sani-
tary rooms, many designers still specify drains made in cast
iron. The example set by the General-Fellgiebel barracks in
Bavaria shows that it can be done otherwise. The new Eco-
guss floor drain produced by drainage specialist KESSEL
which was used there is an inexpensive alternative which
shows a whole series of benefits in both installation and
maintenance.

Light weight, rapid installation

The General-Fellgiebel barracks in Pcking near the Starnberger
See is a place for studying as well as exercising. The Neubiberg
Army University is affiliated to the barracks. In order to offer the
students more space and comfort, the existing residences were
extensively renovated. This also included complete renovation of
the sanitary rooms. Amongst other things, 60 showers needed to
be reconditioned and 70 floor drains needed to be replaced. The
reason for this was that the old cast-iron drains had corroded and
become leaky after decades of extensive use. This allowed the
odour traps to run empty. A typical result was that unappealing
odours were rife, germs and bacteria formed on the floor drain
surfaces.
Optimum fire and smoke protection
Traditionally, cast iron is specified in property building for reasons
of preventive fire protection. Originally, cast-iron drains were also
intended for the Fellgiebel barracks. The new Ecoguss floor drain
produced by the think-tank from Lenting near Ingolstadt was,
however, able to convince the client to make the decision for the
material of the same name. This is because Ecoguss fulfils all cur-
rent fire prevention regulations, but is corrosion-free and conside-
rably lighter than cast-iron. A crucial factor in the decision was
that Ecoguss shows the same benefits in fire protection as cast
iron, but has a considerably longer service life. The "Fire-Kit" fire
protection insert which was also installed in Pcking protects Eco-
guss optimally from fire and smoke gas because the drain fulfils
the requirements of Fire Resistance Class F 120.
The first benefit during installation was the low material weight.
"This allowed us to transport several drains simultaneously to the
installation locations" said Christian Melzl of Melzl Heizungsbau
GmbH, who was responsible for the installation. "That wouldn't
have been possible with heavy cast iron drains. This saved us a lot
of time during installation. And, of course, low weight made instal-
lation easier. Thanks to Ecoguss, we have found a high-quality
drain which is cheaper than cast iron."
Lower processing costs due to compact
outlet shape
The compact shape of the outlet results in lower installation costs.
With a diameter of 160 mm, Ecoguss is around two thirds more
slender than a comparable cast iron drain. "This means that the
core drilling size is reduced, and the corresponding costs are con-
siderably lower than those for comparable cast-iron drains"
explains Mr Melzl. Thanks to the newly, developed "Quick-Fit" all-
round seal, the gap between core drilling and drain no longer
needs to be sealed off with mortar. This seal ensures that the con-
nections are smoke gas-proof as required, which means that mor-
tar filling is no longer needed. Ecoguss is completely compatible
with all cast-iron piping systems and has been installed in Pcking
at outer diameters of 58 and 110.

- drains in renovation use

Inexpensive cleaning thanks to
Lock & Lift system
The drain helps to save costs during daily operation. The time
required for weekly cleaning is considerably reduced. Thanks to
the integrated Lock & Lift locking system, the personnel can open,
remove and reclose the cover with one twist. This means a reduc-
tion in cleaning times of around two-thirds in comparison with
covers which are closed using two screws. "Time-consuming uns-
crewing and screwing up again is no longer necessary - that
makes cleaning easier and reduces costs considerably. In addition,
the cleaners no longer run the risk of cutting themselves on sharp-
edged fixing screws" explains Mr Melzl.
Reference properties
Can be combined with all upper sections
Thanks to the modular system used by KESSEL, Ecoguss can be
combined with all upper sections used by the KESSEL bathroom
collection. For the barracks in Bavaria, this means that the drains
were fitted with upper sections in slotted cover design. Even if the
students aren't aware of the technical innovations underneath
their feet when they're showering, at least they can enjoy the opti-
cally appealing covers.

High-tech material combines advantages

of polymer and cast iron
The new material is the result of years of research and develop-
ment work at KESSEL. The company designed the high-tech mate-
rial in intensive cooperation with its raw material suppliers. For the
designers, the most important thing was to find a material which
solved the corrosion problems suffered by cast iron. "After we had
carried out numerous tests, we were able in the end to develop a
composite material based on metals. Ecoguss combines the bene-
fits of polymer and cast iron, but reduces construction costs. This
helps, because low construction costs are becoming more and
more important for investors in large buildings" according to pro-
duct manager Mark Jung.
