How To Plumb A Shower Drain
Plumbing a shower drain for your new {home|house|residence|property} is a {short|brief|quick} and {simple|easy|straightforward|basic} {process|procedure|method|approach}. {Though|Although|Even though} it {requires|demands|calls for|needs} {attention|interest|focus|consideration} to detail, you can {install|set up} a shower drain like a {professional|expert|skilled|specialist} with a bit of {planning|preparing|organizing} and some {common|typical|widespread|prevalent} {construction|building|development} {tools|instruments|equipment|resources}.
Map your drain hole. To {determine|figure out|decide|establish} the {location|place|area|site}, set the {floor|ground} pan for your shower into the frame you have {built|constructed|created|developed}. Make {sure|certain|positive|confident} you have the shower pan {facing|dealing with|going through} the {right|correct|proper|appropriate} way, then use a pencil to mark the {location|place|area|site} of the drain on the frame beneath.
{Take|Get} the shower pan out of the frame and {cut|reduce} a drain hole in it with your saber or reciprocating {saw|noticed}. The hole {should|ought to|really should|must} be a bit wider than the drain opening in your shower pan, about {6|six} inches in diameter. If you are setting a shower {directly|straight|right|immediately} onto a concrete {floor|ground}, you will {need|require|want|will need} to run the plumbing for the drain {through|via|by means of|by way of} a gap in the concrete and into the {ground|floor} {using|utilizing|making use of|employing} a PVC {ground|floor} joint adapter.
With the shower pan {still|nonetheless|nevertheless|even now} out, insert the drain spud, the {part|component|portion|aspect} of the drain that screws into the pan. {Using|Utilizing|Making use of|Employing} the spud nut, thread the drain spud into the shower pan. A spud wrench is the {best|greatest|very best|finest} {tool|device|instrument} for threading spud nuts. Be gentle with the drain spud. Thread it {until|till|until eventually|until finally} it feels snugly {attached|connected}; do not overtighten it.
Set the drain pan. To {complete|total|full|comprehensive} {installation|set up} of your drain, you will {need|require|want|will need} to have {already|currently|previously|by now} plumbed a P-trap, a {type|kind|sort|variety} of plumbing fixture {frequently|often|regularly} {used|utilized|employed|utilised} in sink, bathtub and shower drains. Depending on the {length|duration}, you will {probably|most likely|possibly|almost certainly} also {need|require|want|will need} a PVC riser {2|two} inches in diameter to {bring|deliver|provide} the height up to {reach|attain|achieve} your shower drain. {According|In accordance} to Rick Peters in the "{Home|House|Residence|Property} How-to Handbook: Plumbing," most shower {manufacturers|producers|suppliers|makers} {recommend|suggest|advise|advocate} that the drain pan be set {level|degree|stage} on {wet|moist} plaster, mortar or non-expanding foam.
{After|Following|Right after|Soon after} your shower pan is set and leveled, use a rubber gasket to firmly seal the {space|room|area} {between|in between|involving|among} your PVC riser and the shower spud. The {best|greatest|very best|finest} way to tamp a gasket into {place|location|spot|put} is to gently hammer it {using|utilizing|making use of|employing} a packing iron or flat piece of metal. You {should|ought to|really should|must} not use lubrication to get the gasket into {place|location|spot|put}. If you are {using|utilizing|making use of|employing} a plastic shower, you {might|may|could|may well} {need|require|want|will need} to cement your riser pipe {right|correct|proper|appropriate} into the shower {instead|rather|as an alternative|as a substitute} of inserting a gasket.
Set the shower drain guard in {place|location|spot|put} {over|more than|about|around} the shower drain. Some shower drains {require|need|call for|demand} that you screw or pop them in, {while|although|whilst|even though} {others|other people|other folks|other individuals} {simply|merely|just|basically} {rest|relaxation} {over|more than|about|around} the drain hole.
If you {cannot|can't|can not|are not able to} {access|entry|accessibility} the plumbing beneath the shower drain to {form|type|kind} a tight seal, you {may|might|may possibly|may well} {need|require|want|will need} to use a compression-{type|kind|sort|variety} connector.If you {cannot|can't|can not|are not able to} {access|entry|accessibility} the plumbing beneath the shower to {form|type|kind} a tight seal, you {may|might|may possibly|may well} {need|require|want|will need} to use a compression-{type|kind|sort|variety} connector.
