A clogged drain usually occurs when there is an accumulation of water and debris, as well as the lack of water flow in the drains.
A few techniques to clear a clogged drain include pouring a significant amount of boiling hot water down the drain to breakdown the accumulation of debris and chemical components. It is important to consider the type of pipes are laid in your home, as boiling water can cause porcelain sink bowls to disintegrate and PVC pipes that could loosen.
The combination of baking soda and vinegar is also a viable alternative to clearing a clogged drain. Once the vinegar and soda is poured down the drain, metal stoppers or rags should be used to cover up the sink to prevent a chemical reaction from occurring.
Plungers can also be utilised in order for the accumulation of water and sewerage waste to be disintegrated. Plungers are a cost-effective alternative which would be required for unclogging a drain. The correct type of plunger is important according to the shape and size of the drain. An example includes a cup-shaped plunger for a clogged bathroom drain.
