Does anyone know the type of drain that can be used? I prefer the kind that you manually push or pull - not the kind that has the chain type attached

There was one attached to my faucet that I would consider the chain type, but I don't use that. I bought a separate one that I think is a push/pull type at Home Depot. No attachments. It's easily removed. As long as it fits the standard hole size then it will work.

I'm not sure I understand the question. There is a device that you push down to close the drain and pull up to open it.

I'm using this sink right now with Price Pfister that came with a push style pop up drain. There's no pulling with this one, just push down and it goes to closed if it was open, or to open if it was closed. The sink would also work with the faucets with the rod that comes up through the back of the faucet, in which case you do push or pull on the rod to open and close the drain.

It's been a while since I installed this, and we've since moved. I do believe that the broken one I replaced was the contractor model. I used the old drain, which worked fine. I believe there was something funky about the wiring, but it couldn't have been too bad, as I am not a mechanic...(See the idea about using a auto jack to hold the disposal in place while working with it.) My advice, if the price is good, would be to get it, take it our of the box and look at it. Amazon has been great with returns for me, when things don't work.

I agree with the other two responses. The drain goes in like any other drain. I am on about my third installation, though, because the first two had the support that holds the popup rot off after a couple years use each. I almost gave up on the pop-up and just went with an open drain, but the third one seems to be holding up so far.

Jeff, good thing you asked before buying. I am facing this problem now. It was too big for my retrofit. In Lowes, they sell it with a removable adapter for larger drains. This one is the larger fit and is all one piece. The threads were too big for mine. I needed 1 1/2 and this one was more like 1 3/4 or thereabouts. Hope this helps.

What do you mean? I dump mine into a nearby sink. If you mean continuous drain, you'd attach a hose to the back of the unit, and that could go into a drain.

If you mean one of those that you lift and twist to put in the open position, then lift, twist and push down to close, no. You could probably get out more if you did, but I never have. Personally, I like the plastic disposable ones better. These didn't get out as much. But, I also bought some drain covers, and those catch all the hair, so I haven't needed to clean the drain since I bought them.

This is a drain cleaning system, but I guess you can use it with that if you are careful. Attach one side to the pressure washer and insert one feet into where you wanna. Turn on the pressure washer and let the system do her job. It's self driven.

the one that i got is a push/press seal at the drain. I wasn't sure what to expect when I got it because the picture looks like it has a pop up lever. I was replacing one that had a pop up lever and this changed out fine. maybe the company offers both...not sure. sorry I couldn't be of more help.

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

GE GTWN 4250 is the one I got, it was on sale at Sears over the Holiday weekend. Just make sure it will work with your drain set up. We have old house with a higher stand pipe and I don't think it quite drains all the way. Other than that it is a FANTASTIC washing machine! My clothes are actually CLEAN and it doesn't take two hours to wash a single sheet!!!

I ordered the drain that was recommended with the tub..it fit perfectly with no modifications, sometimes you can spend a lot more $$ trying to beat the system and make your own. It just ends up costing time , money, and further down the road something unusual that is impossible to find parts for.

I have the same thing. I believe that the product you need is: OXO Good Grips Silicone Drain Protector for Pop-Up & Regular Drains, Amazon sells it here: OXO Good Grips Silicone Drain Protector for Pop-Up & Regular Drains . Enjoy :)

We couldn't find exact fit either. We found one that fits side to side but has a 2 Inch gap at top and bottom. It works for the money while we look for another. $45 @ Amazon. Make sure to get an off-center hole for the drain. It is all stainless and well made. Good luck!

I just wiggle it and move it and pull hard. So far that has worked for me just fine. Twist it around. In my drain it can feel stuck but with some wiggling and moving it comes out. Good luck!

You can use the drain plug however you will have to manually empty the water after use.

The hose is too long for us and therefore the pump runs instead of using gravity. If we cut the hose so it runs directly into the drain, will it keep the pump from running? Has anyone tried this??
