Same as upstairs BUT LESS drainage piping BUT more vent piping.
Yes, a shower drain needs a P-trap for proper drainage. The P-trap prevents sewer gases from entering the shower and also helps to maintain proper water flow by creating a seal that prevents clogs and odors.
Common signs that indicate a need for shower drain repair include slow drainage, water pooling in the shower, foul odors coming from the drain, and gurgling noises when water is draining.
To install a shower in the basement, you will need to first determine the location for the shower and ensure there is proper drainage in place. Next, you will need to install plumbing for hot and cold water supply to the shower area. Then, you will need to construct a shower pan or base, install the shower walls, and connect the showerhead and fixtures. It is recommended to consult with a professional plumber or contractor for assistance with the installation process to ensure it is done correctly and safely.
Using a drain guard in the shower can help prevent clogs by catching hair and debris, allowing water to flow freely. This helps maintain proper drainage, reduces the need for costly plumbing repairs, and promotes a cleaner and more hygienic shower environment.
The drain is plugged somewhat between the upstairs and downstairs. Need to snake the drains.

It's best to have a separate waste and vent line for a shower drain. Introducing a shower drain to a tub drain without a separate line can lead to drainage issues and potentially cause backups or slow draining in the system. It's important for each fixture to have its own dedicated waste and vent line to ensure proper drainage and venting.
I might have to agree with the previous user. Having a vent in the shower is good, because we may leave our hair in there by accident. If two much of that gunk gets there, the water flow will be impaired which may or may not damage the flow system of the entire house... not good.
Using a shower drain filter can help prevent clogs by catching hair and debris, which can lead to better drainage and reduce the need for costly plumbing repairs. Additionally, it can help maintain the cleanliness of your shower by trapping dirt and preventing buildup of soap scum and other residues.
You need to defeat Bowser in the room that has the tap floor, then you will get a key that unlocks the downstairs door.
A shower drain needs a vent to prevent air pressure buildup in the plumbing system, which can cause slow drainage or gurgling noises. The vent allows air to enter the system, equalizing pressure and helping water flow smoothly down the drain.
Any water resistant indoor laqure will do it.
