Nordeast Spirits Posted June 13, 2014 Share Posted June 13, 2014 So I'm looking at a space for a distillery and it needs drainage added. I have been asked what kind of drain I need! just a regular sink drain or something bigger? This leads me to the questions; 1) what kind of floor drains are there? 2) what kind of floor drain would I need to operate a 150 gallon electric still? Any answers would be appreciated. Cheers, Austin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
guppy_wi Posted June 13, 2014 Share Posted June 13, 2014 If you are able, find a place with trench drains and sloped floors or have them installed. Your life will be much easier. I needed to replace portions of the slab in my building (too thin and unreinforced for my tank sizes), so I had drains installed. Best money I've spent. Also, if you ever make your way to central Wisconsin, I'd love to show you around my joint! Brian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
