Plastic shower pan installation drain connection
speedball1 - I need some advice. I have a plastic shower pan with a 3" I.D. drain cast in. The problem is that when the contractor installed it 5 years ago, he just used silicone to glue the 2" pvc into the 3" ID drain. This pre case drain will not accommodate a normal 2" shower drain kit - how do I connect my 2" pvc line to this precase drain.
Thanks in advance, Matt |
