The Green Drain ensures that water flows down, whilst insects, odours and sewage gases stay out
Available in 6 sizes – from just £39
Plumbing installations including a drain traps can be expensive to install and often need lots of maintenance due to failure such as the trap drying out. When a drain trap fails, sewer gas, insects and unpleasant odours can enter the building through the drain.
Green Drain’s patented, easy-to-install design solves these common issues. The Green Drain enables water to freely pass through a one way seal. However, sewage gases, insects and odours are blocked from being able to re-enter the building.
The Green Drain is an eco-friendly solution to the expense and hassle generally associated with drain traps and requires no water or chemicals to ensure an effective seal.
In residential applications Green Drain should last many years if regularly maintained in accordance with manufacturer`s guidelines. For commercial buildings we would recommend that Green Drain installations are inspected as part of the preventative planned maintenance (PPM) regime and replaced if there are any signs of wear due to chemical use or rodent damage.

We have replaced the traditional water trap seals with GREEN DRAINs membrane trap seal, and this installation has eliminated all problems with odours coming from the floor drains.
Being the largest airport in the Nordic Countries, hosting approximately 100,000 travellers daily, it is very important that our drains remain maintenance free, in order to always ensure a satisfactory customer experience.
GREEN DRAIN has really shown its worth in especially two places. Firstly, in the toilet facilities, where drain traps quickly evaporated due to the low amounts of water used in the new eco-friendly way of floor cleaning, compared to earlier methods.
Secondly, in the ventilation rooms where vacuum also caused unpleasant smells from the sewer system. Both places GREEN DRAIN solved the problems easily.

How you’ll benefit from installing the Green Drain
- Sewer odours often produce a foul smell in buildings from floor drains. The Green Drain’s one-way valve eliminates those odours and prevents the spread of dangerous bacteria that can cause potential health hazards, whilst keeping the drain fully functional.
- Traditional floor drains can quickly become a doorway for pests such as flies, cockroaches and rodents. However the Green Drain has a silicon skirt attached which prevents pests from getting in.
- Traditional drain trap seals need to be replaced often and are a pain to replace. The Green Drain takes mere seconds to install and also acts as a barrier trap protection device.
- Traditional drains require consistent chemical treatments as part of their maintenance. In contrast, the Green Drain eliminates the need for chemical applications, making it better on the environment.
