Drain (plumbing)

A drain is the primary vessel or conduit for unwanted water or waste liquids to flow away, either to a more useful area, funnelled into a receptacle, or run into sewers or stormwater mains as waste discharge to be released or processed. In some countries a distinction is made between foul water drainage and surface water drainage.
