Blocked Laundry Drains

Over time, your gunk and buildup can cause the drain behind the washing machine to get clogged. For this purpose, you need to have your machine out of the way to have the access to the drain pipe. There are many methods to clear the drainpipe of debris and get the water to pass through.

Blocked Urinal Drains

Blocked urinal drains are caused due to the high level of concentrations of uric salt crystals, calcium, and uric acids that are caused by urine or minerals in the water. With time, these uric acids get to build up inside the p-trap, causing a uric scale and choking the pipes. To get rid of the clog, it is always best to remove the uric scale.

Use a Plunger

If you have a slow running or a clogged drain/sink that you feel is minor, you can use a plunger. With a plunger, the pressure is created that breaks the clog and allows water to move. But when we use a plunger, there is every chance the pipes can get damaged.

Drain Snake

If you think the plunger is not working, you can use a drain snake, but go for the right size. You can use it by removing the sink trap and a pipe wrench. Insert the drain snake inside the pipe, though you might find it difficult, as there could be some resistance. In this case, crank the snake a little backward and move in the clockwise direction. Now take the snake out and allow water to run through the drain.

Use chemical or a cleaning agent.

If with a snake also your purpose is not met, add a cleaning agent inside the drain. Add it in a little quantity and allow it to sit for ten minutes, and then flush it down with normal water. The chemical can get straight into the build-up and muck and breaks it down to clear the drain. It can also clean the internal rusting of the pipes.
