With market growth in the wetrooms sector reaching an all time high and the associated new business opportunities that this affords installers, understanding how to design and fit a wetroom is fast becoming an essential skill.
In response to increased demand, Impey has identified the need for more informative hands on wetroom training and has decided to take its industry leading training programme on the road.
Impey’s ‘We are Wetrooms’ tour, which commences at the end of January, will incorporate extensive training on all of Impey’s products, including the AquaDec EasyFit floor former – a patented floor former, designed with the installer in mind – plus, the Waterguard tanking solution and the AquaGrade screed template for concrete floors.
The programme for the day will include:
- Wetroom installation and floor formers
- Wetroom installation into a wooden or concrete floor
- How to achieve the correct wetroom gradient
- Effective drainage
- Leak-free water proofing
- Underfloor heating best practice
- How to correctly tile on a floor former or wetroom tray
With a maximum of 30 attendees on each day, there will plenty of opportunity for interaction, ‘hands on’ demonstrations and one-to-one Q&As with the Impey training team, led by Technical Manager Shaun Hunt.
The ‘We are Wetrooms’ tour, which has its own social media hashtag – #wearewetrooms – is visiting eleven different easy access sporting venues, giving installers across the UK the opportunity to learn essential wetroom fitting skills in or near their hometowns.
