We are all accustomed to seeing in our showers and sinks the classic circular drain with stopper or grid. The function of this element is to collect water and lead it towards a discharge duct.

This widespread problem then leads to the use of acid and corrosive substances which have the function to clear the tube from the obstruction, but in the long run this pipe tends to deteriorate, bringing much more serious damage than a simple obstruction of the sewer and which need the intervention of a plumber.

We need to specify then, that especially in the shower the presence of a circular sewer inevitably involves the presence of a shower plate, more or less broad and of variable shapes, that means without a doubt architectural barriers for people with disabilities and also delimits the shower as an isolated element compared with other elements of the bathroom.
