Clogged drains are an annoying and common problem, but with the right tools, they can be quickly fixed. We've gathered the 10 most important tools and remedies to keep at home to avoid more serious problems or specialist challenge.
1. Pump (toilet and sink pump)
The classic tool that is a must-have in every household. The pump creates a vacuum that helps loosen blockages. There is a separate toilet pump and a smaller version for sinks and bathtubs.
2. Drain cleaning spiral
This flexible, metal spiral penetrates deeper than a pump and helps remove even the most stubborn clogs. It's especially effective against hair and dirt that accumulates in sink and bathtub drains.
3. Siphon wrench
If the siphon under the sink or washbasin becomes clogged, you can easily unscrew and clean it with the siphon wrench. It is a simple but useful tool that is worth keeping in every household.
4. Baking soda and vinegar
This natural cleaning combination can effectively help with minor blockages Pour half a cup of baking soda down the drain, then pour a cup of vinegar over it. Let it sit for 10-15 minutes, then rinse with hot water.
5. Hot water
A simple but often effective solution, especially against grease deposits. Pour hot water down the drain to dissolve the greasy dirt.
6. Drain cleaning granules or gel
Chemical drain cleaners are a quick and effective solution to stubborn clogs. However, they should be used with caution as they can be corrosive and can damage pipes in the long term.
7. Plug rubber bell
A useful tool that helps to seal adjacent drains while pumping, allowing the vacuum to work more efficiently. Especially useful when multiple drain are also connected to each other.
8. Flexible drain cleaning brush
This long, flexible brush helps remove dirt stuck to the walls of drains, especially in showers and bathtubs, where hair and soap scum easily accumulate.
9. Rubber gloves
When clearing drains, it's important to protect your hands from dirt and chemicals. A pair of good quality rubber gloves is an essential item in every household.
10. Drain filter
One of the best ways to prevent this is to use a drain filter. It helps to catch hair, food debris, and other debris before they get into the pipes.
