Key Features

  • Dura-Coated cast iron body for long-lasting performance in wet, soil-filled environments.
  • Invertible membrane clamp for watertight integration with waterproofing layers.
  • Vertically adjustable nickel-bronze head to match finished soil or paving levels.
  • Perforated standpipe with dome to regulate water levels and prevent blockages.
  • Multiple outlet types (Inside Caulk, No-Hub, Neo-Loc, etc.) for piping flexibility.

Applications

The Zurn Z349 is built for terraces, promenade decks, green roofs, and planters where proper water control is vital. By maintaining consistent soil moisture and diverting excess water, it ensures both healthy plant growth and structural protection.

Why It Matters

Without proper drainage, water can pool at the surface, suffocate roots, or leak into the building envelope. The Z349 solves these issues with engineered components that are simple to specify and service.

Case Study: Rooftop Terrace Upgrade

In a downtown office tower renovation, designers faced drainage issues with 12 rooftop terrace planters. Standing water was damaging vegetation and threatening waterproofing integrity. The solution: install Zurn Z349 drains with 3" No-Hub outlets. The perforated standpipes allowed excess water to drain while maintaining consistent moisture for plant health. Over a year of use, the system reduced maintenance calls and improved plant survival by 30%.

Frequently Asked Questions

What’s the difference between Z349 and Z350?
The Z349 is designed for terrace applications with planters, while the Z350 is generally used for standard planter and atrium areas. Both share similar components but serve slightly different project needs.
Can I adjust the head height after installation?
Yes. The nickel-bronze head is vertically adjustable, allowing you to match grade or soil levels even after installation.
Do I need gravel around the standpipe?
It’s highly recommended. Surrounding the standpipe with clean gravel promotes percolation, keeps fines out, and improves drainage efficiency.
