Abstract (en)

Former apparatus for supporting a stiff plastics water resistant floor covering, comprises : a base (12) having a predetermined fall; a sump (16) provided on the base (12) and towards which the fall is directed; a shower water inlet (18) recessed into the surface of the base (12) to provide a step to the sump (16); a waste water outlet (20) in a side of the sump (16); and a pump attached in-line with the outlet (20) of the sump (16). The former apparatus is characterised by a clamp element (30) which is provided on the step to the sump (16) to surround an opening thereto and which is disposed on an upper surface of the base (16). The clamp element (30) has an upturned peripheral edge which lies in parallel or substantially in parallel with a wall of the inlet (18) for clamping the floor covering therebetween and which is mechanically securable to the base (12) by fastening means.
