floor drain is an inseparable thing in the family. Although it is not noticeable, the difficulty caused to everyone when the floor drain is blocked is very annoying. Then, how to dredge it when the floor drain is blocked? Let's teach you some tricks to clear the floor drain!
1. Sundries: the blockage of the household floor drain is mainly to block the hollowing with some residues and garbage, resulting in the sewage unable to be discharged. The kitchen floor drain is blocked because the kitchen sink residue is not clear when washing dishes. Toilet floor drain is blocked by hair in most cases, so in our daily life, we must remove the sundries on the floor drain surface.
2. Main pipe: the main pipe of the external wall drainage connected with the floor drain is blocked, which makes the water in your house unable to drain out. You need to ask the neighbors upstairs and downstairs if there is a similar floor drain situation. If there is any blockage, it means that it is the main pipe outside.
3. Building materials: if the floor drain cover is not lost and is usually covered on the floor drain, it may be that building materials fell into the pipe when building the house in the past and were not cleaned in time, resulting in the blockage.
How to clear the floor drain?
1. Leakage of floor drain: generally, there is only one possibility for leakage of floor drain. The main reason is that the joint between the water pipe passing through the floor slab and the floor slab is not well waterproofed. Floor drains generally do not have problems. In case of water seepage, the floor tiles around the floor drain can be opened, the cement at the place can be dug out to 3cm deep, and then sealed with "plugging agent". After one to two hours, the water closing test can be carried out. If there is no water seepage, the problem is solved.
2. Floor drain odor: floor drain is an important interface between the drainage pipe system and the indoor ground. As an important part of the drainage system in the house, its performance directly affects the indoor air quality, and is very important for the odor control in the bathroom. The reason of floor drain odor may be that the height of water seal of floor drain is not enough, the water in the trap dries up quickly, and the odor in the drain pipe overflows. At this time, you can add a return bend to the floor drain, or change a floor drain of the same specification. If no one is at home for a long time, it is better to seal the floor drain with a cover.
3. Log dredging method: first, insert a log close to the drain into the water pipe, and put a certain amount of water into the pool, and quickly pump the log up and down without interruption, under the action of suction and pressure, the dirt in the pipe will be washed away.
4. Soda plus vinegar dredging method: pour half a cup of baking soda into the sewer first, then half a cup of vinegar. After the reaction between soda and the acid in vinegar, the grease in the pipeline can be removed.
5. Biological dredging: put a small yellow water chestnut into the water pipe, then add some irritant things such as washing powder or salt, cover the cover, and dredge the pipe through its biological characteristics.
6. Air pump dredging: when the floor drain and sewer are blocked, the rubber pipe of the air pump can be plugged into the sewer, and then a small amount of clear water can be put in, and the pipeline can be dredged by continuously pumping air in.
To clear the floor drain:
1. Wipe the stains on the cover and the drain with a brush. Wipe the parts that the brush can reach, and then clean with water. If it is blocked inside the pipeline, it can be cleaned with pipeline dredger, which has effect on grease, hair, vegetable leaves and other kitchen garbage, toilet paper, toilet block and other blockage. Fill the floor drain with water, and use the sanitary pump to force up and down several pieces.
2. Cut a small piece of thin stockings (the thinner the better, the thicker it will affect the water), stretch it as far as possible and fix it on the floor drain. In this way, the hair will be gathered on the stockings. When cleaning, the stockings and the hair will be thrown away together, so that the hair will not enter the floor drain.
3、 No matter what falls into it, it will be stuck at the elbow together. You can use the handle of an iron broom to hammer it into the shape of a spoon, and then slowly pull it out. When you feel like it's going to pass quickly, pour some water down. Combined with the above methods, it will work.
4、 Connect a hose close to the corner raft to get to the blocking point, put the hose into the floor drain until it can not be plugged in, then use a towel to block the floor drain as much as possible, and then open the corner raft to finish the water volume, at the same time, press the towel at the floor drain as hard as possible to prevent the water from returning. Repeated one or two times can make the general rule pass, and fail to reach the end.
