Zurn Z609 – 9" Square Heavy-Duty Drain

A compact, heavy-duty square-top area drain built around a Dura-Coated cast-iron body, with bottom outlet, seepage pan, and an anti-tilt slotted grate—ideal for plazas, decks, garage levels, and light-industrial floors.

The Zurn Z609 is engineered for surface drainage at hardscape low points. In technical terms, it features a cast-iron body with bottom outlet, combination membrane flashing clamp & frame, seepage pan, and a heavy-duty anti-tilt slotted grate. In plain language: it ties cleanly into waterproofing, stays put under traffic, and keeps water moving off the surface.

Key Features

  • 9" square top with heavy-duty anti-tilt slotted grate for traffic-resistant inflow.
  • Dura-Coated cast-iron body with bottom outlet—durable and straightforward to tie in.
  • Seepage pan + combination flashing clamp & frame to integrate with membranes.
  • Outlet options: IC, IG, IP, NH, NL; pipe sizes: 2", 3", 4" (verify submittal).
  • Top finishes by prefix: cast iron (Z), polished bronze (ZB), polished nickel-bronze (ZN).

Applications & Benefits

Choose Z609 for plazas, parking decks, garage levels, ramps, and processing bays where a compact, serviceable drain is needed. The square top aligns neatly with joint grids and pavers, while the anti-tilt grate resists shifting under foot and light vehicle traffic. Optional sediment bucket (-Y) and trap-primer connection (-P) help tailor maintenance and code needs.

Case Study: Retail Plaza Low-Point Retrofit

A neighborhood retail plaza experienced nuisance ponding at slab joints near storefronts. The retrofit standardized on Zurn Z609 drains (3" No-Hub) with -Y sediment buckets and secured tops. After the first rainy season, facility logs recorded faster runoff capture, fewer joint failures, and shorter maintenance windows.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is Z609 appropriate for vehicle areas?
Yes—Z609 is heavy-duty and supplied with an anti-tilt slotted grate. For extreme loading, consider Duresist grate option (-DG) or larger/heavier models in the Z66x/Z67x families.
Which outlet connection should I specify?
Match the connection to your piping: No-Hub (NH) for cast-iron, Threaded (IP) for steel, or Inside Caulk (IC), Inside Gasket (IG), and Neo-Loc (NL) as detailing requires—typically available in 2", 3", or 4" sizes.
Does Z609 include a sediment bucket?
The sediment bucket is an optional accessory (-Y) for Z609; add it when debris capture between service intervals is important.
