What to do if the floor drain is blocked
The smell of floor drains appears:
The floor drain is an important interface connecting the drainage pipe system and the indoor floor. As an important component of the drainage system in a residential building, its performance directly affects the quality of indoor air and is very important for the control of odor in the bathroom. The reason for the smell of the floor drain may be that the water sealing height of the floor drain is insufficient, and the water content of the water quickly drys up, causing the odor in the drain pipe to overflow. At this time, you can add a reflux bend to the floor drain, or replace it with a floor drain of the same specification. If no one is at home for a long time, it is best to seal the floor drain with a lid.
Floor leakage seepage occurs:
Floor drain leakage problem is generally only one possibility, mainly because the waterproofing at the junction between the sewer pipe passing through the floor slab and the floor slab is not done well. There are generally no problems with the floor drain. If water seepage occurs in the floor drain, open the floor tiles around the floor drain, dig out 3cm deep, and then seal it with "blocking leakage" and conduct a water closure test after one to two hours. If water seepage does not occur, it means that the problem is solved.
Soda with vinegar and clearing method:
First pour half a cup of cooked soda into the sewer, and then half a cup of vinegar. After the soda reacts with the acid in the vinegar, the grease substances adhered to the pipe can be removed.
Block clearance method:
First insert a log with a diameter close to the drain into the water pipe, and put a certain amount of water into the pool, and thrust the log up and down rapidly continuously. Under the action of suction and pressure, the dirt in the pipeline will be washed away.
Tips for clearing the floor drain
1. Cut a small piece with thin stockings (the thinner the better, the thicker it will affect the water), stretch as much as possible, and fix it on the floor drain. In this way, the hair will gather on the stockings. When cleaning, throw away the stockings and hair, so that the hair will not enter the floor drain.
2. Use a brush to wipe the stains on the cover and drain outlet. Wipe as long as the brush can reach, and then clean with water. If the pipe is blocked inside, you can use pipe dredging agent to clean it up, which will be effective for kitchen waste such as grease, hair, vegetable leaves, and toilet paper, and blockages such as toilet paper. Fill the floor drain with water, use a sanitary pump to force a few pieces up and down.
3. Close the corner raft to connect a hose that is sufficient to reach the bottleneck point, put the hose into the floor drain until it cannot be plugged in, and then use a towel to block the floor drain port as much as possible. Then, turn on the corner raft water, and press the floor drain port towel hard to prevent the water from returning. If you repeat it one to two times, it will be clear, and if it doesn’t work, it will stop.
4. No matter what falls into it, it will get stuck at the elbow together. You can use an iron broom handle to knock it into a spoon shape with a hammer, and then slowly dig it out. When I feel fast, I just pour some water into it. Combined with the above methods, this will be done.
Reasons for blockage of floor drain
1. If the floor drain cover is not lost and is usually covered on the floor drain opening, it may be that when building materials were built in the past, the construction materials fell into the pipes and were not cleaned in time, resulting in blockage.
2. Usually, more debris fall into the pipe, causing blockage.
3. The main drainage pipe connected to the exterior wall of the floor drain is blocked, causing the water in your home to be unable to be discharged. You need to ask your neighbors upstairs and downstairs if there is any similar situation of blocking the floor drain. If so, it is a problem with the main stewardship outside.
