FunkyBass Posted July 14, 2006 Share Posted July 14, 2006 Hi, Since I'm not native english, I'm having trouble with some parameters. Could anybody explain me what the 'cleanout' in the piping object means? thanks, Quote Link to comment
jan15 Posted July 14, 2006 Share Posted July 14, 2006 An opening, covered with a plug, to allow a repairman to put a "plumber's snake" (metal tape) into the waste pipe system, to break through solids that are blocking it. Quote Link to comment
G_Hannigan Posted July 14, 2006 Share Posted July 14, 2006 I cleanout is usually connector with a removeable plug that allows clogs to be removed from a section of the system. It is similar to the plug at the bottom of the trap in a sink drain. George Quote Link to comment
