What do you put underneath it to protect it and how do you drain it???

I had a dirt area that I put two inches of pea gravel on and then plywood. It is best to put some kind of foam under it for insulation. It comes with a hose adapter for draining it. There is a drain plug and receptor for the hose adapter. Just drained mine and all the water came out but an inch or so. I turned it over to drain the remaining water which also allowed me to wash it out.

I used a taoe under my hot tub and I use my pond pump to pump the water out as well as the drain plug.

It has a mat. I put underneath two layers of outdoor rug/carpet foam that is treated against mold and mildew. I can feel the cushion effect in the spa. I am not sure how long the foam will last but it does a good job cushioning it.

It comes with a floor mat. It is equipped with a drainage apparatus (tubes) that connect to a plug on the spa floor. You can also purchase a siphon hose available at auto supply stores.

We have ours set up on our concrete patio. It comes with a mat that has straps attached that you attach to cover when not in use. In addition, we bought interlocking foam mats (shop mats) for added protection and cusioning from the hard surface. As already commented by Stevi Belle, it has the drain plug, etc... We also have a short garden hose and start a syphon to reduce the drain time in half.

There is a drain stop inside of it. You just pull the stopper out and it drains.

I use it under the drain cover. We have a beveled area, 3 inches in diameter, which connects to the drain pipe. This fits in with a little room to spare, and the nicer drain cover screws down over it. Still have to pull it out every couple weeks to clean off, but better than the really fine mesh baskets which clog up too easily.

There is a washer that is goes underneath the sink. It has to be "threaded with all thd hoses, slid up against the unerneat side of the sink and secured. I don't remember just how. Your instructions should show this. It's been some time since it was installed and my memory fades a little quicker these days. Lot's of luck. Joe

Anytime! Hope that was helpful. Also, I used thompsons water sealer on it to help protect it more from the elements. Contacted manufacturer n they said that was fine.

Put in a layer of coarse gravel on the bottom so soil won't plug drain holes and water can move from soil through the gravel to drain holes. Tom

It always drains, so when I have mine on the countertop, I make sure the little holes (at opposite end of silverware trays) are positioned over the lip/edge of the sink. I guess you could cover those holes with something-??tape??-and then UNcover when you put it back in the sink.

The flat lower area behind the plant holders will over fill . That is where the drain holes are that flow down to the bottom . I drilled a hole in mine on the back side to the level I wanted and ran a clear poly tube next to the wall to drain off the patio just in case .

Make sure you put enough water in it. Don't worry about too much water, it holds it well. Fill that sucker up :)

Per manuf. instructions .....do not use wrap -on cables under ground . Move drain pipe above ground & use wrap-on or insulate pipe underground , or put drain below frost fine in ground

There are overflow outlets at the top of the barrel that will drain the excess. These are probably closed over when you get them so you can just punch or drill a drain hole the size that you want

Use a plastic pail, big enough for the pump to fit into, and drill holes around the base of the pail. Place the pump in the pail and set the pail onto the cover. The water will flow into the pail, keeping most of the debris out of the pump's inlet.

I put a small bead of caulk where the sink and counter top met. After installing everything I put another small bead of caulk along the parimeter where the 2 meet to prevent water from getting under the sink.

You should have instructions that came along with them. I'm not near my drain but you basically put it in the drain hole and tighten the nut from the bottom, make sure the rubber seal goes against the sink bottom. Don't forget the plumbers putty...see what EadtCoastPete said...

It has a drain built in. The last few inches at the feet you'll have to bail out though because the drain doesn't quite go all the way to the bottom.
