        Weep holes in this connector will spill water into the floor cavity when connected to the ALFI linear floor drains
        This ALFI connector appears to be made for tile floor drains even though it is also specified as "required" for use for installation with ALFI linear floor drain pans. The instructions also say that this connector must be installed underneath the linear floor drain pan to collect drain water. The trouble with the ABDB55 part is that it has weep holes. This means that, if it is installed underneath the drain pan, the weep holes open into the floor cavity. It also means that if the drain pipe ever gets clogged, the only place the water can go is up through the weep holes and into the floor cavity! I spoke to an ALFI rep who insists that this is not a design flaw and that they have never had any problems with the pan in a linear floor drain. In a tile floor, the weep holes for this part appear to be above the shower floor, which makes sense. But the ALFI design team or engineers apparently didn't think it through when also specifying that this ABDB55 connecter also be used with their linear floor drain pans. The ALFI rep disagreed vehemently that any leakage into the floor cavity could possible occur. But then they just said, despite the use of the word "required" in the written instructions requiring that the ALFI base drain must be used, that I could buy a different brand of base drain connector, or just plug the weep holes with caulk. Either one of those options would be contrary to ALFI's written instructions. So, something doesn't seem right and I am worried about voiding warrantees and of course getting leaks. Cannot recommend this part because of the lack of clarity from ALFI, and instructions for a part which would seem to guarantee a leak if a clog in the pipes ever occurred.

        Hi Holz!

        The ABDB55 drain base has weep holes, and it is designed to work as part of a full waterproofed system. When installed with proper slope, sealing, and drainage, it works exactly as intended.

        Please note that we have sold thousands of these drain bases which go with our linear drain for a bit over a decade and am pleased to say that I have not received a single report of leaking as you mention in your theoretical example.
