Haven't run into this before. How does one install a tub in a basement? This is new construction. The builders poured a basement slab and provided access for a tub drain in the concrete. I am having trouble with the drain plumbing and lining up the tub drain. I tried a P trap and am trying a barrel trap. I have removed part of the partition to access the the end of the tub but I do nort have the necessary room to manipulate the plumbing. Any help is appreciated. Jerry

I just went through the same thing. If the house is recent (not sure how new is "recent"), it should have a trap already in the slab. The line is probable 2", that's code. I ended up building a floor up 6" on my slab to move the plumbing, not an ideal solution. E-mail me with more info/questions and I'll try to help you avoid the same fate. funkmd@navair.navy.mil
