1. A drain system for fluidly connecting a surface to downstream plumbing, the drain system comprising:
a base having an open top end and an open bottom end spaced apart in a vertical direction, and at least one sidewall between the open top end and the open bottom end forming an inner channel adapted to provide a fluid flow path from the open top end to the open bottom end, the sidewall having at least a portion angled relative to the vertical direction;
a drain support member comprising opposed beveled ends angled to mate in a complementary manner and couple with angled portions of the sidewall of the base, disposed across the inner channel; and
a strainer, secured to the drain support member, for retaining debris and preventing the debris from entering into the open top end of the base.
