Quick answer
A ShowerLine system has three parts: a PVC drain body and cover, a ShowerLine pan (sloping) kit and a waterproofing kit. Measure the finished opening where the drain will run, decide whether the shower is curbed or curbless, then pick the three parts from the matching row below.
| Curbed shower | Curbless shower | |
|---|---|---|
| Drain placement | Anywhere | At the entry, parallel to the shower entry |
| Standard slope run | Systems up to 64" sloping down to the drain | Systems up to 48" sloping down to the drain |
| Custom sizes | Available | Available |
In a curbless shower, a drain on the left or right side creates a trip hazard and doesn't allow a curbless entry. The shower entry is typically the best location.

Every drain has a maximum flow rate. Add up the fixtures before you order:
| Fixture | Typical flow |
|---|---|
| Showerhead | ~2.5 GPM |
| Rain head | ~3 GPM |
| Body spray | ~1 GPM |
ShowerLine is rated about 10 GPM in a curbed layout and about 5 GPM at a curbless entry. Need more flow? Custom drain bodies are available.
See the ShowerLine installation videos before you start. The written instructions cover many layouts and are easier to follow after watching one.
