Posted: Wed Oct 06, 2010 2:23 pm Post subject: Drains clogged |
|
|
Some of you know that I've got a bathtub. Long last time there was a neighbour's mother who just came in and "visited" my unit, and mentioned that its not good coz need to scrub always + drainage sure clogged with hair in no time (which is true). Scrub is sure thing - I mean if anybody has found a definite solution to skip scrubbing the tiles, wash basins in the toilet, glass shower screens as well, pls call me.
Anyway true enough, after 6 months the drainage of the tub clogged. Quite a bit of hair. With a regular shower screen plastic trap, the hairs would be visibly trapped hence you just remove it. With the tub, the hair are all trapped "inside", but before the built-in drain hole area.
Pls don't call a plumber to clear, nor use those black plastic sucker to sponge out and push in....not much use for hair.
Use this....

This works even with a very near complete clog with standing water. The gel sinks to the bottom and acts at the hair, grime, sleaze whatever..... After that just whack 1 litre of 80 deg C water, and there you go.....
Its magical, you pour in the hot water and it fills up quick, suddenly the whole thing just clears and everything empties like nobody's business.
Job done. |

Sodium hydroxide, sodium sulfate and some stuff.... look alkaline.
The bottle itself is plastic, so PVC piping absolutely no issue. |

The local version of the Mr Muscle should look like this...
Other alternatives:
LIQUID PLUMBER FOAM
Or KIWI Kleen solution.
For cleaning of bathroom Mr Muscle, Kiwi Kleen or MagiClean offering are all ok  _________________

I think main cause probably alot of hairs cause the clog.
For I open up the trap and clean manually
