Has anyone used or installed a trench drain in a tile shower?
Looking to put in a master bath shower.
This looks like it would be the easiest way.
No compound drain.
Best way to go or not.

Thanks

You're kidding...right?

Which/whose trench drain do you have in mind?

You sound like you never heard of trench/linear drains.

Well I never have. They seem pretty nice looking. I'll have to look into these when we go and redo our master shower. Great no dealers here on the Island, typical.

I believe Schluter has one now as well.

Search this forum; there was a guy on here a few months ago who was hyping, installing, or selling them. I can't remember which.

Quite the contrary, been installing them suckers for thirty years but they aren't exactly the easiest drains to use in some circumstances. Even the newer styles coming down the pike today have their issues. Just isn't something I would suggest to a DIY'er for a first-time project.
