Why must the bathroom be equipped with a floor drain?

Toilets are usually wet. Installing a floor drain can prevent water from accumulating in the bathroom. Floor drains are generally embedded in the ground, which is both beautiful and conducive to drainage.

Several common installation methods of toilet floor drain 1. The oblique cutting is basically that the floor drain is located in the middle of the tile, so the slope design is not good. You can cut it into four pieces diagonally, and set the slope when paving. The floor drain is at the lowest point, and the drainage is smoother.

2. The cruciform floor drain is located at the intersection of four tiles, centered on the floor drain, and the four corners of the floor drain are aligned with the edges of the tiles. This floor drain is only suitable for square floor drain, which is beautiful and generous, and the design slope is natural.

3. Dislocation, which is also only applicable to square floor drains, just makes use of the space where tiles are dislocated, and it is the most labor-saving way without cutting tiles.

4, half diagonal If the floor drain is located against the wall, you can use this half diagonal way to cut, pay attention to the slope when paving, and the drainage is smooth.

Precautions for installation of toilet floor drain 1. Before the floor drain is installed, the floor drain core must be taken out to avoid debris falling into the floor drain core and causing damage.

2. In order to ensure that the overall decoration effect will not be destroyed, the floor drain should not be installed too far from the ground. Therefore, if the drainage pipe is too far from the ground, it should be filled with cement mortar, so as to achieve the purpose of heightening the drainage pipe. Only after the floor drain is installed can the most perfect decoration effect be guaranteed.

3. The purpose of installing the floor drain is to drain water, so the floor drain should be installed slightly below the ground to facilitate drainage. Before the floor drain is installed, if the drain pipe is too close to the ground, it should be properly cut short to ensure that the installed floor drain panel is slightly lower than the ground.

4. The installation of floor drain should consider the convenience of future maintenance. Therefore, when filling cement mortar, the floor drain cannot be used directly. Instead, kraft paper or other solid materials are rolled into a cylinder that matches the sewer pipe, butted with the sewer pipe and above the ground, and then filled with cement mortar.

5. When installing the floor drain, in order to prevent tools and other items from falling into the drain pipe and causing blockage, the drain pipe should be blocked with cloth or other soft items in advance, and only when installing the floor drain core can it be taken out.

6. If the washing machine uses a floor drain, you can choose a special floor drain or connector for the washing machine. Of course, ordinary floor drains can also be used directly. It is only necessary to insert the drain pipe sleeve into the fixing pin on the upper part of the floor drain, but the practicability and convenience are not as good as the former two.

7. The floor drain is connected to the sewer pipe, which is higher than the ground. Fill the mixed cement mortar (1: 1) into the surrounding gaps, adjust the height of the floor drain panel to a proper position, and put the floor drain into the molding pipe after the cement mortar solidifies, so as to make it closely fit with the pipe wall.
