I've ripped out an old, ugly yellow fiberglass shower from about 1982, and the first goofy thing is horrible source plumbing. After fixing all that, I now am dealing with the drainage. The shower drain was butted up to an ABS stub, in a concrete mound. I know I need to install a proper trap, and that's going to be cutting concrete, installing the proper stuff, and filing it back in.
Here's the problem I have now. The Jacuzzi jetted tub I'm now looking at the underside of is almost as bad. It's draining straight into the drain line as well. I've already had some sewer gas issues on thankfully rare days. It needs a trap, and I'm debating on how the heck I'm going to do this from this back access I currently have.
I think I'm going to have occasion to buy one of those PVC fitting drill attachments to strip this out and do it right. Thankfully the base of the tub is quite high. Anyway, what do you all think is the best way to get in here and do this?
