I installed two floor drains for sump pumps. They are also stomp grates and a shower drain. The first is a 28-inch cast iron storm drain. I winged tapering the concrete and it came pretty good. The 2nd drain I could not get the concrete to taper toward the drain (to small an area to work) so it tapers toward the first drain 2 feet away.
Ben, Really like your videos great info and always very good tips and tricks! 1 question do you ever install the primer injectors/ primer to prevent possible sewer smell in basement or garages? Especially in heated floor installs?
Why does that PVC floor drain fitting include a passage that slopes downward at a 45 deg angle? It looks like it would bypass the trap and allow sewer gas to come into the room. Is there a check valve inside to prevent that from happening?
Its a clean out. There is a plug you can unscrew from the top (accessible) side so that your snake has a straighter shot, as opposed to having to go through the trap.

What about venting it and back flow prevention?
Is the floor drain vented below the trap weir?
It's a clean-out. That leg is plugged.

@@JimYeats That makes more sense than my speculation. Thanks.
@@JimYeats I get that but what makes it not an "S" trap?
@@jwblount7802it will not have water going through it .....just a snake no water going through it to drain out the trap 😂
@@JimYeatsI send it through traps all the time and half of the time it's right in the traps....clear alot of them with just a toilet agar
Whew, I feel drained... 🙂
Fuking awesome
If you don't have a level, you shouldn't be doing any plumbing.
Haha, true! I almost always do...
