If more fixtures that receive human waste are installed, the room will need a ______ ______ and a ______ ______.

• A. Floor Drain; Hose Bibb
• B. Floor Pan; Hose Cock
• C. Drainage Trench; Water Heater
• D. Floor Sink; Spigot

Answer: (A)

Adding more fixtures that receive human waste means you must plan for both drainage and a water supply for cleaning and maintenance. A floor drain is essential because it provides a direct path to the sewer for any liquid waste, spills, or overflows that can occur on the floor, helping prevent standing water and sewer gas issues. A hose bibb then gives a convenient water source to rinse down the floor, flush debris, and perform routine cleaning or tests. Together, they address the practical needs of a room with waste-bearing fixtures: effective drainage and an accessible means to apply water for cleaning. Terms like floor pan or floor sink don’t provide the same full-room drainage capability, and a hose cock is just another name for a hose connection that isn’t as standard in code language as a hose bibb.
