Abstract
A drain coupler includes a drain coupler body having a lower opening and an upper opening. A pliable seal is carried by or adjacent the upper opening, the pliable seal operable to form a water-tight seal about an exterior of a metallic throat section of a drain. Coupler engagement structure is carried by the drain coupler adjacent the upper opening of the drain coupler body. Cap engagement structure is carried by a cap. The cap engagement structure and the coupler engagement structure cooperatively enable removable engagement of the cap over the upper opening of the drain coupler body to temporarily cover the upper opening of the drain coupler. The cap is removable to allow insertion of the metallic throat section in the pliable seal.
