To answer a question from many owners today, how do you need to set the bathroom floor drain? It is reasonable to set a few.

First of all, it is impossible to solve the problems of all the owners through a short article, because the shape of the bathroom is different, the functional area of ​​each location is different, and the location of the floor drain is also different. I will find a more conventional bathroom and talk to you about it. The reason is the same, you only need to reserve it according to the actual situation and functions of your home.

The more floor drains in the bathroom, the better, the less the better. The more floor drains, the greater the possibility of the bathroom smelling bad later, and the greater the possibility of water leakage.

Nowadays, many bathrooms are separated from wet and dry. The wet area is either an independent space or in the shower room, which can ensure that the water in the shower can be drained in a direction without involving other floors.

In a layout like this, only two floor drains are needed for a bathroom, the first is in the shower area, and the second is in the dry area.

The floor drain in the shower area is used as the main drain, and the floor drain in the dry area is only a backup. Usually, whether you wash your hands in the wash basin, wash your hair or flush the toilet, the amount of water that flows to the ground is not large. It can also be sucked clean by dragging twice. This floor drain is to prevent the occurrence of a large amount of open water, there is a place to drain.

Another situation is that there is no separation of dry and wet in the bathroom. In this case, one floor drain on the entire bathroom floor is enough, because in this case, in addition to the main drain, the other floor drain must have a particularly small slope, so you don’t need to expect the water to It is difficult to drain water from two floor drains at the same time. This approach can only exist at the theoretical level, and it is difficult and difficult to operate in practice.

The two situations just mentioned are the most common and can meet the needs of 95% of the owners.

The demand of the remaining 5% of the owners is to make the bathroom three-separated or four-separated. In this case, my suggestion is that the floor drain in the wet area must be provided, the floor drain of the washing machine must be provided, and the floor drain of the toilet and wash basin can be omitted.

It is a psychological problem to leave these two spaces as floor drains. If you leave them, you will find that these two floor drains are really useless.
