ACO MonoDrain® is a simple yet versatile channel drainage system for surface water conveyance which has been specifically developed to meet the demands of contractors and clients alike. Designed to maintain the long term performance and appearance of the installation, its robust one-piece construction removes the risks associated with dislodged or stolen gratings – providing a highly effective alternative to traditional two-part channel and grate systems.

Sizes

The ACO MonoDrain® system is available in 100mm wide constant depth channels and five depths, 30.0, 20.0, 10.0, 0.0 and shallow. The new 150mm channels are available in three constant depths of 20.0, 10.0, and 0.0.

Contractor savings

ACO MonoDrain® offers good savings for contractors, the channels' high strength means less haunching is needed. Up to £5.07** per metre is saved on concrete installation costs; which over a large project adds up to significant savings. This is achieved by reduced haunch requirements from 150mm down to 100mm, making ACO MonoDrain®'s installation details superior to other monocast drainage channels available from competitors.

Maintenance ease

ACO MonoDrain® channels are designed with accessibility in mind and can be maintained in the same way as grated systems with pressure jetting. New access units for the range are made from composite material and offer a superior resistance to corrosion, as well as snap-fit insertion, for improved security.
