    Default weird roof drain

    I've never seen a roof drain like this. Any comments?

    Maybe they borrowed it from the neighbor's pool.

    That's not a drain, it's a sieve waiting to be clogged!

    Nah, a sieve has more holes in it.

    Just tell them that is not an approved roof drain and it needs to be replaced with a proper roof drain, or it can be left CAPPED OFF LIKE IT IS ( ) and a real roof drain installed.

    It is effectively (almost) "capped off".
