Clogged Pipeline in Bathroom

Drainage channels are prone to clogging hair, toothpaste and personal products residues. You can avoid a plumbing bill face or use of harsh chemicals when using home remedies to unclog the sink. These types of remedy work to dissolve or remove obstructions so the sink drain freely again with some bathroom gadgets.

A plunger can loosen small obstructions in the top of the tube. Use a plunger before trying other solutions, otherwise cleaning agents can be ejected to the outside of the drain once the blockage is cleared. Uses a slightly larger than the drain opening piston. Place the cup plunger or the pressure pipeline dredge device on top of the drain, completely covering him for a tight seal. Push down the plunger handle several times can dislodge the obstruction. Another option is to use a drain snake. Insert the snake into the drain and turn the handle. The metal snake strikes inside the drain, breaking through the obstruction and unclogging the pipes.


Obstructions sometimes occur when residues personal products, hair or objects are housed in the pipe below the drain. Drainage channels have a P trap of a few centimeters under the sink. The name refers to the place where the pipes are bent, forming a "P". The purpose of the trap is to avoid the accumulation of waste further down the pipe where they are more difficult to access. Place a bucket under the trap to collect water spillage. Loosen the clamps that hold the pipe P trap in place and remove the trap. Clean any blockage in the trap before replacing it and tighten the clamps.
