How to Install Watco Waste and Overflow Drain

Watco is a name known for innovative, high-quality bathtub drain, waste, lavatory drain and overflow products. Watco waste and overflow is the name preferred by professional plumbers that recognize durable and long-lasting bathtub drain products.

What Is Bathtub Waste and Overflow?

The bathtub waste and overflow is usually overlooked and not noticed when we look at the bathtub. The bathtub waste describes the drain at the bottom of the tub that disperses bathtub water. The overflow is the hole in the tub that allows excess water to drain out of an overflowing bathtub. 

How Does a Bath Waste and Overflow Work?

The overflow hole is covered with an overflow plate, although it does not contain any mechanism to stop the flow of water. This means that water will continuously drain out of the overflow hole once the water reaches that level. The overflow drain effectively disperses water out of the bathtub to protect your floors and home from water damage from an accidentally overflowing tub. 

As long as the overflow drain is not clogged, it will effectively drain water to keep the water level several inches below the top of the tub. Over time, these components can become corroded or clogged and not allow water to drain out as well as it should.
