A-S Lifetime Drain install
I am installing an American Standard Lifetime tub. This forum has been tremendously helpful as I've worked through all the unknowns I've encountered. The Lifetime drain that is required for A-S tubs comes with a short tailpiece (about 1" diameter) that threads into the bottom of the drain/vent tee. This tee also has the normal 1-1/4" compression type connection. Am I to connect to the smaller diameter tailpiece or "swallow" the tailpiece with a 1-1/4" compression fitting to the trap? And if that is the case, what is the purpose of the smaller tailpiece?
