    Does PVC drain fittings adhere to asphault

    Proper drain fitting material for hot mop application. Does PVC or ABS work best? What's your recommendation? The fitting I found has a bolt on flange for waterproof membranes. I'm pretty sure that isn't the right one.

    Tiling around Wetroom tray drain
