Most shower drains require subfloor access for installation. This one doesn't. The SD1000 installs entirely from the top — the drain body drops into the shower base opening, the strainer locks into place from above, and the installation is complete without cutting access panels or working from below.
It's the drain specified for fiberglass and acrylic shower base replacements where the subfloor is inaccessible, and for new construction where the plumber wants a drain that can be installed after the shower base is set. The 10-year warranty and Made in USA manufacturing are the reasons it's been the professional specification for decades.
- Top-install design — installs entirely from above; no subfloor access required; the right choice for fiberglass and acrylic shower base replacements.
- Made in USA — manufactured to the quality standard that professional plumbers have specified for decades.
- 10-year warranty — backed by the manufacturer for a decade; the confidence that comes from a product built to outlast the installation.
- Chrome OEM finish — standard chrome finish compatible with most shower hardware; the professional specification finish.
- Compatible with fiberglass and acrylic bases — designed specifically for the shower base types where top-install access is the only option.
