Thanks for posting this information. The room we'll be using for a bedroom was originally meant to be a wash stall - hence the drain - but was never used as such. There has been no problem but it has never been a completely enclosed building before. I'll discuss it with the plumber next week. Not a problem I'd want to have in our bedroom.
Tread carefully and think this through. I managed a business for 20 years, and the building we were in, all that time, was just fine except, it had 6 floor drains. A floor drain has to have a 'trap' filled with water to prevent the sewer gasses from coming back into the building (your house). The first time it happened, it cost us a $50 plumber visit to tell us the stench was coming from the dry traps in the floor drains. Several of which had been covered with rugs.
