        "text": "A curbless shower requires careful planning for effective drainage to prevent water from escaping the shower area. This typically involves sloping the shower floor towards a linear drain or a center drain at a specific gradient. The subfloor underneath must be properly prepared and waterproofed, creating a continuous waterproof membrane that extends up the walls. In some cases, a 'zero-threshold' design might still incorporate a subtle, barely visible slope or a slight recess to ensure all water flows directly to the drain.",
