bathtub drain

Where water exits

The bathtub drain is the opening and mechanism that allows water to exit a bathtub, typically located at the bottom and fitted with a stopper or plug.

Drains commonly clog with hair and soap residue: I need to snake the bathtub drain.

The phrase sometimes appears in discussions of water conservation or plumbing problems.
