What started more than twenty years ago as an innovative drainage solution for showers without thresholds has grown into a full line of architectural linear drains, including a collection for outdoor use. The Site Sizeable Linear Drain Series designed by Australian-based Stormtech offers elegant and efficient drainage for pool surrounds, patios, balconies, and driveways. Infinity Drain, Stormtech's American sister company, offers Stormtech-designed drains for the North American market.
Manufactured in Long Island, Infinity Drain offers the Stormtech designs that are suitable for North America (common installation methods differ from those in Australia). Made of stainless steel, the Site Sizeable Linear Drain Series models include the AG Series (Stormtech's ARG Series) with a linear wedge-wire stainless grate and the DG Series (Stormtech's PH Series) with a circular hole-perforated stainless grate, both available in complete kits or as components. Contact an Infinity Drain Dealer for pricing and ordering information (Australian residents contact a Stormtech Dealer).
