What should I do if the bathroom floor drain has an odor?

1, the floor drain is unqualified.

3. Defects of self-sealing floor drain

Both of the above are water-sealed floor drains, so will the self-sealing floor drain have an odor? The answer is yes. At present, most self-sealing floor drains on the market are mechanical self-sealing floor drains. Due to the limitation of the current technology, this product is prone to various failures, which will inevitably lead to poor sealing and odor of the floor drain.

4, caused by the spread of germs

Due to environmental pollution and bacterial spread, the floor drain stinks. The sewer pipe is dark and humid for a long time, and it is a pipe for discharging sewage. Naturally, it is easy to breed a large number of germs. Over time, the water seal could not be sealed, and finally spread indoors, posing a great threat to the health of family members.

How to deal with the odor of floor drain?

There are two ways to deodorize floor drain in the market, one is the traditional water seal deodorization, and the other is the new self-sealing deodorization. The national standard stipulates that the height of water seal is 50mm, but the water seal height of floor drain produced by many manufacturers is only 10-20 mm, which is only 20-40 mm of the national standard, and it can't play the role of deodorization at all. So it is not surprising that the floor drain has an odor.

2. Defects of traditional water-sealed floor drain

The water-sealed floor drain itself has some defects. Even if the height of the water seal reaches more than 50mm, the floor drain will still smell. After a few days or even ten days, the water seal will still smell, and because the water channel is long and narrow, curved and the attached area of stolen goods increases, a large number of bacteria and pests will breed after a long time.

1, replace the floor drain

Although self-sealing floor drain is the inevitable trend of future floor drain development, its deodorization effect is not as stable as water-sealed floor drain, so try to choose water-sealed floor drain.

2. Keep the water in the floor drain changed in time.

Fill the floor drain with water in time, keep the water seal in the floor drain and replace it frequently.

Step 3 cover the floor drain

You can cover the floor drain with a wet towel or waste gas plastic bag to prevent the odor and bacteria of the floor drain from spreading indoors. Or you can find a better plastic bag, fill it with water, fasten it, put it on the floor drain, take it away when you use it, and plug it when you don't use it. You can also buy a rubber plug from the hardware store and plug it in when not in use.

4, often clean the floor drain and deodorizer.

Cleaning the floor drain regularly and putting some tea bags, incense and bamboo charcoal in the bathroom can also effectively remove the odor.
