Clean Isn't Always Clean
Showers are meant to make people clean —but if stagnant water remains in the plumbing, the system itself can reintroduce bacteria and waterborne pathogens.
And when your team's game season is over or your school is closing down for summer vacation or winter break, that water in the column from that last shower isn't going anywhere.
The solution is the Auto-Drain Shower System. It removes stagnant water entirely keeping your showers safe and hygienic between uses — something only Auto-Drain is designed to do.
Auto-Drain® Shower System Options
The Auto-Drain Shower System includes a variety of options. Choose between round and square trim designs, integrated or separate drain valves, and shower head or Auto-Drain hose with hand spray. Click the images below to see some popular Auto-Drain shower configurations.

The Hidden Risk of Stagnant Water in Public Shower Systems
Stagnant water in intermittently used locker room showers can create an overlooked health and maintenance concern in stadiums, arenas, and other public facilities. When water remains trapped in pipes and hoses between uses, it can contribute to biofilm buildup and increase the potential for waterborne pathogens such as Legionella.
