Floor drain in new house wasn't draining.

So I dug out a full cup of gravel and silt, along with a small foam ball, a penny, and a nail.

After flushing it with water to make sure it was good and clean, it flows great.

It had a threaded plug to block the cleanout, but it wasn't the right size, and besides the threads in the cast iron are all rusted away. So I filled it with a compression plug. Seems to be working well.

Before:

You show us the before, but not the after?

Is it not loading? The video of it flowing properly shows up in the main post for me

Here's the link

Ah, yeah I don't see that. Unclear if it's my phone browser, or Verizon blocking random shit.

I'll check on my pc when I get home.

But I see the imgur link you just put. That there is a fine draining drain. Yep.

Penny

How did the Penny get in there?
