Overview

A 36-inch linear drain is a long channel drain that collects water along one edge of a shower floor. It allows a single-direction slope, so it works well with large tiles and curbless entries, and spans the width of many standard showers.

Sizing & placement

It is 36 inches long, 3 inches wide, and sits nearly flush at 0.25 inches tall. Its length matches a 36-inch-wide shower, so it can run wall to wall along the back or across the entry of a curbless shower.

Where it works

Bathroom showers, especially curbless, walk-in, and accessible builds; suits modern tile designs.
