Oh MAN!! ... DO NOT - DO NOT Use Lye on ANY piping in a house. First - do ou have any idea what type of pipes Your drains are made of ? ... Cast iron (Hub and gaskets), (threaded) galvanized steel, or PVC (Glued together plastic)?. Second - Are you POSITIVE the clog is hair, hair, and only hair?. Hair usually creates the main catch, which holds onto toothpaste, shampoo / conditioners, excessive perfumes and deodorants like body wash, hair mousse or gel, bath pellets/crystals create a buildup, lathering cleaning chemicals leave residues (scrubbing bubbles anyaone?), and a million other things can cause clogs. Last - ANY "drain opener" will be damaging to pipes, no matter how many times or what wording it uses to say it won't. The pipes that connect the drain to the tub are actually VERY thin brass, possibly with a chrome coating. You should ALWAYS use drain chemicals sparingly, and repeat if necessary - and never let them stand in the tub for more than a 6-hour period. You should also NEVER use a cot-hanger on a tub drain. The pipes just arenb;t made to handle it. "Drain augers" are made to bend on their own and follow a pipe bend, hangers aren't - PERIOD. Especially be aware of any fumes that may build up from keeping this stuff sitting in Your tub water, especially if a kid(s) is involved in the house. There's only one thing You SHOULD do to repair a clogged tub drain, There's a handle between the drain and the tub spout that fills it with water. There are 2 screws in it, cover the tub drain with a rag so the sacrews don't fall into the drain, take the screws out, pull the "linkage" for the drain out, and cover the hole tightly enough to be air/waterproof. Run some hot(!!) water into the tub, and plunge the drain 10 - 15 times while the hot water is in it. Repeat as necessary but make sure the water can be baled out when it gets too high. If this doesn't solve the problem after 5 - 10 times, wait an hour and try again, the You need to go on to the next option. Take either a genuine drain ager (snake) and feed it into the lever-opening, and attempt to unclog the stoppage, Once that's been done, and the sanke feeds through about 6-12 feet into the pipe, take the "drain cover" off of the drain in the tub bottom, and use the snake there. If the piping from the lever-opening is cleared first, there will be less stoppage holdng back whatever's in the "trap" under the tub itself. If you don't have / cant get an actual drain auger, a piece of strip plastic with some jagged notches will work pretty well, They make something called "The Zipper" that does just this, but You could easily make one Yourself. The plastic bends, and won't scratch the pipes or break through a rotted pipe wall. Good Luck!.

Answer 3

Sink Unclogging Products

Answer 4

The best product is muratic acid, but it's known to cause problems with metal pipes as well as PVC pipes because the heat build up can cause an eruption on severe clogs and people have been known to get burned looking over the sink as they pour it.

If your pouring liquid plumber lets say into your sink already full with water it is normally safer than muratic acid.

This is what I do.

When I purchased my first house I took muratic acid and cleaned out all my drains in the house and never had a problem with clogged drains bathrooms as well.
Every six-months you need to pour muratic acid into your sink drain and let it clear out any oils and immediately flush when you pour with water because muratic acid eats away on contact and has a horrible fume that you do not want to breathe at all.

I'm an experienced maintenance plumber and using strong chemicals can either get the job done and hurt you at the same time.
CAUTION should always be used when pouring chemicals to unclog drains.

Answer 5

In my professional opinion, NONE of them work! I have gone to countless homes where they have tried all kinds of agents to unclogg the drain. I have to wear protective clothing in some cases to unclogg the drain. (when acids are used)

AFTER the drains are cleared with a cable machine, you can buy an enzyme which will eat anything organic and that will keep the drains clear and the drain man out of your home.

If you use the enzyme before drains are cleared, it will create a clogg. Because it eats everything on the sides of the pipe then it will fall down upon itself creating a clogg. But after the clogg is cleared, the enzyme will keep the line very clear. giving a treament once every three months will do very well. In most cases, twice a year is all that is needed to keep your pipes clean.

Answer 6

Use an enzyme drain cleaner such as Draincare by Zep. Caustic cleaners just eat a hole in the clog and go down the pipes. Enzyme cleaners cling to and "eat" organic clogs (no tree roots). Most take overnight to work completely but it's worth it. Also safe for septic systems. Follow the directions on the container.

Answer 7

Spend the money and hire a plumber to snake the drain. All the drain cleaners I've seen will be just temporary fixes, and you'll eventually spend more money on drain cleaners then a plumber.

Answer 8

A snake. The different liquid products only work if the clog is right near the trap.

Answer 9
