Zip Tie Floor Drain

[Sid.Santo]

This is a brain teaser. The zip tie for the condensate line snapped.

How do plumbers thread them through there?

unistrut and clamps is a good way

Basically I want to thread a zip tie through the drain. What's the technique? Lol.

I'm not looking to change that pipe or use a clamp

Just leave it as is unless the lines do stay put near the drain.

There is no good way. Stick the zip tie down into the grate and feed it around the sides of the "bowl" until it hits the right spot and makes it's way through. Either that or take the grate off.

If your first zip tie is still in place attach the new zip tie to it and feed it through.

Buy a new strainer. Zip it, then install.

Usually you can lift the grill out.
