All - need advice on how best to remove flange (believe they are attached to CI) from shower pan and sunken roman tub. Not sure how to best go about it. Ultimately, I want to remove/demo existing shower pan and install a new prefab acrylic shower base in its place. I know through other threads there is a strong recommendation to go ahead and break into concrete and remove drain and ptrap while I'm at it; however this is not an option for me at the present time...and I'm okay with risk/possibility that I may have to address this later and do some rework/cost. For now, I'm looking for easiest options to remove the flanges from both shower and tub with the least amount of chipping into concrete. I've been told I can use a Renco donut to convert from CI pipe to new PVC installation for the acrylic shower pan once the flange is off. CI Drain inside diameter appears to be approx 2" and assume a 2" to 2" Renco donut would be what is called for.


So, help and advice is much appreciated!
