plastics. weight?
well i am pissed.
i dropped the coin (many hundreds of USD, really... these things cost a shirt load, close to a whole weeks pay, -tub, shower wall-) to replace my bath tub and shower, the plastic around the drain broke shattered is more like it.
but now that the "new" is in .. guess what the new tub broke before i could use it, had some weight in it while going down the rd to camp.
no the drain was not pushing up on the bottom of the tub. plenty of clearance under it. the piping has a rubber hose so there is some flex.
but the cheap plastic broke in the same area. got a bunch of glue now, looks ugly. need to check, been letting the epoxy cure good first.
only have found plastic tubs online or in catalogs. is there a better unit. (NOT PLASTIC) cast alu, with a painted liner? cast iron?? sure will be heaver. but do not care if it holds up to being used.
going to look under the flooring to see if maybe a different run for the drain.
