I forgot to put the standard screw together drain on my shower base before installing it. Fortunately I looked around for a solution and found this, and it worked perfectly! Definitely saved my butt. The installation was a little tricky because I had to cut out a little more of my sub floor to allow the flanges to go where they needed to, but that was my fault for not having a large enough hole around my drain pipe. Overall, it worked great. I also put silicone inside of the drain to seal it to the pipe. If that silicone ever fails, then the O ring inside should also stop water from leaking.
While installation was a "snap" - removing the old Oatey drain wasn't quite as simple as shown in the video and instruction sheet. I ended up having to make an opening in the old drain so I could cut the retaining nut off the drain assembly and get the old drain out. Be prepared for a bit of frustration in doing this if you have the Oatey drain like I had (their standard plastic model.)
Installation of the new drain assembly was very simple, once I broke the "ears" free from the threads on the screws. It appears the manufacturer used a locking compound on the threads to make certain the ears would extend. Unfortunately I'm guessing they ran out of Blue (medium strength - #242) Loctite, and found they had some Red (permanent locking strength) laying around so they used that instead. It was quite difficult to break the thread free enough to actually allow tightening it, and I'm glad I did this before trying to install it. Hint to Lasco: You may want to check the thread locker you're using.. it's MUCH too strong.
Other then that, and some noise now when I move around in the shower (I suspect caused by the O ring sliding/moving a bit on the PVC drain pipe), it works fine and looks fine. Sure beat pulling a ceiling down to get at the bottom of the shower pan.
Reviewed in the United States on February 17, 2024
SIMPLIFIED INSTRUCTIONS: It is much easier to install than the previous drains I've used. There is just a few steps: First, apply silicone gel around the drain hole of the shower pan, and set this drain down into the hole of the shower pan. Then, tighten down the (4) adjustable STEEL (not plastic) "wings" on the side of the drain using a phillips head screwdriver. Lastly, the chrome plate fits directly on top to leave an aesthetically pleasing appearance (and cover the hole of course). The chrome plate doesn't need to be glued down and you probably shouldn't glue this down in the event you decide to replace the shower in the future.
I hope this helps.
