Linear Drain vs Standard Round Center Drain
What is the difference between the linear drain and standard drain types?
Cost? Linear drains can be more expensive. A center drain can be had for a fraction of the price
Maintenance? Both linear and center drains are easy to maintain
Curbless? Go with linear
The latest greatest to impress those that are impressionable? Linear
Although there is a bit of overlap with what can be done with the two types of drains, the "sort of" nutshell opinion-based answer? If you want an easy curbless shower entry, or if you want large format tile with uninterrupted grout lines, go with a linear drain. If your budget is tight, go with a standard square or round center drain.
Regardless which drain type you choose, you can make a standard shower drain extraordinary with a Q-Plus or Premium linear drain grate, or choose from a Pro Grate, a classic Square Drain Cover (available in ten beautiful finishes), or a Unique Series Grate (available in thirteen designs) to finish a center drain.
