drain line

Sewage exit pipe

A drain line is a pipe that carries wastewater or other liquids away from a fixture or system by gravity.

In plumbing, drain lines connect sinks, toilets, and appliances to the main sewer or septic system: The plumber snaked the clogged drain line.

In HVAC systems, a drain line removes condensation from air conditioners.
