Compliance Statement
Scope of Use
The SPS V100SSA4 vinyl floor waste is designed specifically for sheet vinyl flooring in moisture-prone areas such as bathrooms, laundries, commercial kitchens, healthcare facilities, and public amenities.
It is intended to provide reliable, watertight drainage for foul and surface water in wet environments where durable, hygienic solutions are required. The product is made entirely from polished 304 stainless steel, ensuring corrosion resistance and long-lasting performance.
Restrictions on use include compatibility only with sheet vinyl flooring; it is not suitable for other flooring types like tiles or timber.
Proper installation is required to maintain the watertight seal and meet New Zealand Building Code requirements. The waste fits inside 100mm pipes of PVC, copper, cast iron, or HDPE materials, and is not designed for industrial liquid waste or chemical drainage applications.
New Zealand Building Code (NZBC)
The product will, if employed in accordance with the supplier's installation and maintenance requirements, assist with meeting the following provisions of the building code:
- Clause E1 Surface water: Performance E1.3.1, E1.3.2, E1.3.3, E1.3.3(a), E1.3.3(b), E1.3.3(c), E1.3.3(d), E1.3.3(e), E1.3.3(f)
SPS vinyl floor wastes comply with NZBC Clause E1 (Surface Water) by providing a watertight seal between the floor waste and vinyl flooring or waterproof membranes, preventing surface water ingress into the building.
Their integrated ring and grate clamping system ensures leak-proof installation, which is critical for managing surface water safely and protecting building occupants and property. These wastes efficiently collect and dispose of surface water through gravity drainage, supporting the objectives of E1 to avoid injury or damage caused by surface water pooling or leaks.
Compliance depends on correct product selection, outlet sizing, number of drains, and installation per manufacturer guidelines, ensuring the drainage system meets the required performance standards under E1 - Clause G13 Foul water: Performance G13.3.1, G13.3.1(a), G13.3.1(b), G13.3.1(c), G13.3.1(d), G13.3.2, G13.3.2(a), G13.3.2(b), G13.3.2(c), G13.3.2(d), G13.3.2(e), G13.3.2(f), G13.3.3, G13.3.4, G13.3.4(a), G13.3.4(b), G13.3.4(c), G13.3.4(d), G13.3.4(e), G13.3.4(f), G13.3.4(g), G13.3.4(h), G13.3.4(i), G13.3.4(j), G13.3.4(k)
SPS vinyl floor wastes comply with NZBC Clause G13 (Foul Water) by providing safe, maintainable, and effective drainage solutions that prevent leaks, blockages, and foul odors. Constructed from durable materials like ABS, brass, and stainless steel, they ensure long-term reliability in wet areas.
The integrated ring and grate system provides a watertight seal with vinyl flooring and waterproof membranes, preventing leakage and ingress of foul air. SPS products meet the performance criteria of AS/NZS 3500.2.2 and are designed to be trapped and vented correctly according to G13 requirements.
Compliance depends on correct outlet size selection, number of drains, and proper installation following manufacturer guidelines, ensuring effective foul water management in commercial and industrial settings.

Evidence
The product meets the requirements set out in the following documents, or relevant parts of cited standards within the documents:
The SPS V100SSA4 vinyl floor waste meets NZBC Clause E1 by
ensuring watertight installation integrated with the building’s membrane to
prevent surface water ingress, thereby protecting people and property from
water damage. It fulfills durability, watertightness, and flow capacity
requirements under E1/AS1 when installed according to manufacturer
instructions.
For NZBC Clause G13, the SPS V100SSA4 complies with foul
water management by effectively draining wastewater without leakage, blockage,
or allowing foul air into the building. It meets material, water trap,
ventilation, and installation standards as specified in G13/AS1 for buildings
up to three stories.
Design requirements
The SPS V100SSA4 vinyl floor waste features a 135mm diameter polished 304 stainless steel grate with a heel-friendly 5mm bar x 5mm gap design, providing both durability and safety in wet areas.
The drain body is made entirely from polished 304 stainless steel, ensuring corrosion resistance and longevity.
It is designed specifically for use with sheet vinyl flooring in moisture-prone environments such as bathrooms, laundries, and commercial wet areas.
The product includes two rubber O-ring seals to fit securely inside 100mm pipes made from PVC, copper, cast iron, or HDPE.
Restrictions include its intended use solely with sheet vinyl flooring; it is not designed for other flooring types. Also, proper installation is critical to maintain the watertight seal and achieve code compliance.
Installation requirements
SPS V100SSA4 installation requires a clean, structural concrete substrate with secured reinforcement. The 100mm outlet must match O-ring seals on the waste.
Installers should be experienced in waterproof membranes and plumbing.
Install in dry conditions, avoiding extreme temperatures.
- If available fix the waste to reinforcement to prevent movement during the concrete pour.
- Insert the waste into the pipe ensuring a watertight O-ring seal.
- If waterproofing is present, apply the membrane into the drain body without blocking drainage.
- Clamp vinyl flooring into the grate ring tightly.
- Ensure the grate is flush with the finished floor.
- Test for watertightness pre- and post-installation.
Maintenance requirements
The SPS V100SSA4 vinyl floor waste, made entirely from 304 stainless steel, requires regular cleaning of the grate to prevent debris buildup that can cause blockages or leaks, ensuring ongoing compliance with NZBC durability standards and warranty conditions.
Frequent maintenance is recommended to maintain proper drainage performance and avoid potential issues.
Its robust stainless-steel construction supports long service life and allows for safe disposal and recycling at end-of-life.
Proper upkeep of the grate and drainage area is critical to preserving product reliability and code compliance throughout its lifespan
