Although shower or tub drains serve the same function to dispose of wastewater into your buildings drain system. There are some drain differences; a shower uses a floor drain, which directly removes wastewater from the shower as you use it. A tub drain, on the other hand, needs to be manually closed or opened with a lift-and-turn or push pull mechanism or a lever.
Shower or tub drains have different drain connection sizes to accommodate the pipe sizes of your buildings drain system. A shower tub drain has a 2” drain connection, while a tub drain often has a 1-1/2” drain connection.
