Floor drain-Q&A about cleaning the mouth

What is the difference between a cleaning port and a floor drain?
Answer: The cleaning port is installed on the drainage horizontal pipe. It is used to clean the pipe fittings of the drainage pipe. It is usually installed at the end of the horizontal pipe, which is equivalent to a plug; the floor drain is the interface between the drainage pipe system and the indoor floor and serves as the drainage system in the house. Its performance directly affects the quality of indoor air, and it is very important for floor drainage and odor control in kitchens and bathrooms. In general, when the length of the horizontal pipe is not more than 20M, the floor drain at the end of the indoor drainage pipe can replace the cleaning opening, and the cleaning opening should be installed in the middle of the horizontal pipe greater than 20M!
