How to eliminate clogging in the bath and sink at home, improvised and chemical agents

Sewage clogging( the most common is clogging in the bathroom) is accompanied by water draining and, as a consequence, flooding.

Slow drainage of water through the holes indicates that a blockage has occurred. It is necessary to quickly eliminate this trouble, since the use of such a bath is not hygienic. Also, you do not need to wait for the clogging to disappear by itself in the course of time.

In principle, not only the specialist can cope with the blockage, it can be eliminated on their own. You need to know that cleaning the clogging in the bathroom is more difficult than removing the clog in the sink, since the bathroom has an additional drainage hatch.

Generally, the formation of clog is the result of improper operation of the sewage system, although it is very difficult to monitor everything that gets into the drain.

The sources of blockages are most often:

• spools with garments,
• hair,
• pet hair,
• small debris.

These elements form a clogging in the pipe, which does not allow water to easily flow through it.

Bantuz is the simplest tool that can eliminate blockage. You can use the plunger not only to eliminate blockages, but also for prevention. It has been proved that the periodic use of the plunger guarantees less frequent blockage.

Procedure for removing the blockage:

1. It is necessary to put the plunger in such a way that the rubber base closes the drain hole.
2. Pre-bath should be filled with water, as a jet of water will help push through the dirt, in this case, water will be more effective than air.
3. Moving the handle up and down, do a couple of strokes with the tool so that the air can pass into the drain and push the lump much further. Then you need to wash off the water with water.

As there is an additional water drainage hatch in the bathroom, in case of water overflow, air will leak into the opening. Then the plunger will be useless, since for its work a vacuum is needed. To simplify the case, you can overlap the second flange of a smaller size with a second drain hole. A rag in this case will not help, since it perfectly passes air.

The use of various chemicals is another way to eliminate clogging. This method is used for quite a long time, and today there are improved compositions that are easy to buy. If you choose household chemicals for a bath, the best choice will be a remedy that has the ability to dissolve the hair. For the kitchen, a remedy that should dissolve fat is suitable.

How to remove household chemical waste:

1. You need to choose the right product, it does not matter whether it is powdered or liquid.
2. It is imperative to read the instructions for use and determine if the product for the pipes installed by you is suitable.
3. Follow the instructions on the packaging to pour or fill the product into the drain. When using the powder, it is necessary to pour the drainage with boiling water.
4. For the best action of the tool, you must wait for the specified amount of time according to the instructions.
5. Next you need to turn on the hot water and thus rinse the pipes, removing the debris.

It is usually necessary to clean the siphon before removing blockages. It will also eliminate the unpleasant odor that arises from the precipitation on the walls of the siphon. Such cleaning is also suitable for the prevention of pipes.

If you spend it once a month, you do not have to worry about blockages.

Stages of siphon cleaning:

• it is necessary to place a material absorbing moisture under the siphon;
• on the material to install a basin that will not allow spilled water on the floor;
• further it is necessary to unscrew the bolt nut and remove the flask;
• fluid that creates a septum will flow into the pelvis;
• siphon must be washed, remove all litter that had time to linger, remove plaque present on the walls;
• assemble the structure, the siphon flask should not rest on the drain pipe, for the safety of the hydraulic seal;
• open the tap and fill the water seal with water - this is a check for tightness of all connections.

Cable is also used to remove blockages. The plumbing cable looks like a dense twisted wire, which is curled into a spiral. To ensure the torsion of the cable at the end of the device is a handle with a plastic or wooden nozzle. This tool is suitable for the elimination of blockages in the bathroom, or rather in metal pipes.

Regulations for the removal of cable lint:

• install the end of the cable in the drain or in the pipe outlet;
• to carry out this action is better not alone, the first person twists the handle and the cable twists around the axis, and his assistant, directing the cable, pushes him forward;
• spinning cable can easily overcome all the pipe turns. Also during this action, the cable is screwed into the clog, thereby destroying it;
• after the clogging is eliminated, the voltage will decrease, therefore it is necessary to perform several movements of the cable back and forth;
• further need to get the cable and wash it;
• if the positive result is not observed, then the procedure is repeated first.

From all of the above, we can conclude that the clogging in the bathroom can be removed by hand. But it will be much more effective to carry out preventive measures against blockages. Performing simple preventive measures will prevent clogging, and the bath will remain clean and usable.

1. Grids that are installed in the drain and do not let it get into the sore( hair, wool, dirt) into it.
2. Household products used for pipe cleaning.
3. Vantuz as a tool for prevention.

The causes of clogging may be different. First you need to make sure, in fact, the trouble that arose in the bathroom, like blockage.

If the day before the problem, the water withdrawal was normal, and after some actions, for example, washing animals or washing the rug, the water stopped running away quickly, then you can be sure that this is really clog.

If, however, the flow of water has been slow before, it is necessary to call a specialist and ask him to first check the height of the sink. The owner of the bath is responsible for the cleanliness of the pipes.

If you are not confident in your abilities or if your attempts to remove the blockage have been unsuccessful, you need to take the help of a specialist to avoid exacerbating the problem. In addition, it is unlikely that you have all the necessary tools for removing blockage. Experts will easily perform the required work to remove the blockage, taking into account all the features of the pipes.
