Does a Floor Drain Need a Trap? A trap (a special U-shaped pipe) is required for all plumbing fixtures, including floor drains. It is used to prevent sewer gases and foul odours from escaping into the building. However, for this trap to function properly, it needs to be regularly filled with water. The so-called liquid seal is what stops the emission of sewer gas.

Attempting this on your own could risk hitting the main sewer line and causing significant trouble to the piping system.
