“At Oatey, we know that quality products both behind and in front of the wall come together to create the bathroom experiences that contractors, designers and homeowners are looking for,” says Katherine Lehtinen, Oatey’s Senior Vice President of Marketing. “KBIS was an excellent opportunity for us to showcase our range of industry-leading products that make those bathrooms a reality, from the first pipe to the final design.”
Oatey’s lineup drew significant attention at the show. Some of its noteworthy bathroom products and systems on display included:
- The new QuickDrain BenchDrain: BenchDrain is an innovative, sleek linear drain built right into a shower bench. For years, designers, contractors and homeowners alike have sought out QuickDrain’s sophisticated WallDrain – built directly into the shower wall – for its unique modern aesthetic. With the introduction of BenchDrain, installers can achieve the same barely-there drain experience without furring out the wall; instead, BenchDrain comes with everything you need to build a tiled bench seat and install the linear drain directly into it. Nearly any solid surface tile can be installed in the drain’s magnetic tile-in cover, completing BenchDrain’s elegant, concealed look.
- QuickDrain linear and square drain shower systems: These drains provide unlimited styling options and superior engineering. QuickDrain linear drains offer wall-to-wall coverage that promotes effective and efficient water drainage. With curbed and curbless options for residential, hospitality and healthcare applications, QuickDrain stands out by providing the perfect job site-ready solution for homeowners, designers and installers.
- Oatey Freestanding Tub Drain: The Oatey® Freestanding Tub Drain Kit removes the guesswork and complexity of installing a freestanding/island center or offset tub. Simply connect the drain to the drain, waste, and vent (DWV) system from above the floor at rough-in — only a 4-inch subfloor hole is needed. The compact, universally compatible drain works with brass or Schedule 40 tailpieces and easily connects to any plumbing configuration. The kit includes a pre-installed, tool-free, quarter-turn leak test plug and an easy-to-grab protective cap to prevent drain tile-over.
- Oatey 130 Series Drains: An excellent choice for tile and pre-formed shower bases, 130 Series Drains offer durability, functionality, and style, making them a preferred option for modern bathroom designs. Configurations come in square or round, snap-in or screw-in, and polished stainless steel, brushed nickel, oil-rubbed bronze or matte black finishes.
- Dearborn TrueBlue Bathwastes with Designer Finishes: Combining practicality and aesthetics in one package, True Blue Bathwaste helps installers overcome multiple frustrations when putting in bathtub waste and overflows. The True Blue Bathwaste includes an integrated locking bath shoe gasket that keeps it from moving or falling off at odd or difficult angles while installing the drain spud. Overflow and drain test plugs are installed with a simple quarter turn, making testing quick and reliable. If the homeowner or designer changes their minds on which finish to use, this system allows the contractor to quickly change the trim without removing the spud while requiring no additional sealants. Available finishes include Champagne Bronze, Matte Black, Chrome, White, Brushed Nickel, Oil Rubbed Bronze, and Brushed Gold.
- Oatey MODA Supply Boxes: These supply boxes provide a reliable solution for managing water supply lines behind walls, ensuring convenience and ease of use for homeowners and installers alike. The MODA Supply Box System is designed to meet the needs of plumbing contractors for washing machines, ice makers, lavatories, toilets, dishwashers, and SureVent® Air Admittance Valve applications. A universal single-box platform provides maximum versatility, installation simplicity, and rugged reliability. The MODA Supply Box System is the ultimate solution for speed and flexibility.
