1. Flooding odour Analysis of the cause: It is possible that the water seal of the floor drain is not high enough, and it is very easy to dry out, resulting in the odour in the drainage pipe flooding into the room. Solution: First, the floor drain does not necessarily have a water return bend, add one into it; second, replace the floor drain with one of the same brand and specifications. However, during construction, be careful not to damage the waterproof layer. In addition, it should be reminded that, in use, the water seal should be prevented from drying out and must be regularly filled with water. If left for a long time, it is best to seal the floor drain with a cover.
2. Water overflow Analysis of the cause: It may be that the overflow section of the floor drain is not smooth enough and the sewage cannot pass quickly, or that the internal structure of the floor drain is convex and concave and hangs on hair, fibres and other dirt. Solution: The height of the floor drain is determined by the way the drainage system is laid. Therefore, it is best to choose a floor drain with a height of 200mm or less and 120mm or less respectively, and it must drain sideways. Commonly used concealed installation practice for the bathroom structure floor partial sinking pipe and bathroom do bedding pipe two. In order to meet the net height and ergonomic requirements of the bathroom, the former has a sunken headroom of 300mm and the latter has a maximum bedding height of 170mm. 3. Water seepage Solution: Open the floor tiles around the floor drain, dig out the cement around it to a depth of 3cm, then seal it with "plugging spirit" and do a closed water test after 1 hour to observe whether it is still seeping, if it does not seep, that means it is restored to its original state.
