converting a toilet/sink to a shower

hi,

i have a bathroom that consists of only a toilet and a sink. i wish to add some kind of shower stall (doesn't have to be a separate compartment) to this bathroom.

i can easily add a showerhead to the sink faucet, but my main concern is water drainage. maybe i would shower in a large tub, but having to dump out the water everytime after i shower could be a pain.

there is no drain in the floor, and i was thinking if there was some easy solution to drain water from the tub to the toilet or sink. i don't want to remodel the bathroom or destroy anything to create a drain.

would a machine pump work? or is there some other drainage device?

thank you very much!

Hey Max,

With the possible exception of a few boat or travel trailer showers that come with a 50 gallon holding tank but no pump there are no home showers on the market that would fill your bill. This leaves you with two options. Sponge baths or stand in a wash tub. Sorry Tom
