Just looking at ordering a couple of shower trays for the renovation and was wondering if anyone has any experience of low-profile trays.
I haven't used them before and was wondering what, if any, problems there are in installing/using them.
They seem to come 45mm deep.
I am planning on putting them on plinths.
Cheers

Often they leave very little space for a standard waste so a low profile hi-flo waste is adviseable.
They are becoming more and more popular for both style slaves and less-able people alike.
Why use a low profile shower tray and then put it on a plinth?
Seems to defeat the object.
I installed a 40 mm low profile tray a few months back. I put it on top of two layers of 18 mm ply as it was on a concrete floor. The waste was pumped and only needed 15 mm pipe. The pump was a bit noisy but the user was deaf so who cares?
Cost, mainly. They seem to be cheaper than the standard trays.
Understood, thanks.
If floor is not concrete, do the job properly and run the waste under the floor
To save on this and reduce the height of plinth needed, also to avoid siphonage etc., have a look at the HepVO dry trap:
