Don’t resort to chemical solutions that corrode your pipes! Don’t waste spending twice as much money on buying them first and having a plumber intervene to repair the damage later!
Even improvising like a handyman, reaching under the sink with spanners, screwdrivers and pliers, cannot be considered a winning solution – there is no need to dismantle or open the pipes! And don’t worry, you won’t need suction cups. In short, we will reveal to you a truly foolproof method to overcome the problem, without getting involved, without even having to face the horrifying spectacle of dirt coming to the surface…
A natural chemical solution that, by reacting gently but effectively , will ensure that your clogs are clear and clean in no time … Curious? Let’s get started!
6 things you should NEVER throw down the sink!
First of all, it is worth remembering what you should NEVER pour down the sink drain, not even accidentally:
- Coffee grounds: Although there is a common belief that they can clean pipes, they actually cause serious problems because they compact together, forming a solid plug.
- Eggshells : Fragments end up stuck to other fragments, forming tangles that are difficult to remove with running water.
- Apple core: Fruit stems and plant filaments, even though they are biodegradable, do not slide down the drains, but accumulate in terrible clumps.
- Animal and vegetable fats: leftover chicken, pork, rabbit meat, fat and nerves solidify, preventing water from passing through. Cheese, frying oils and leftover fats are major pollutants and harmful to the health of fish and the waters in which they end up at the end of the race.
- Flour : does not dissolve in liquids, on the contrary, it thickens inexorably forming stubborn obstructions.
- Hair and fur : Even shaving your hair, not just your hair, is dangerous because it gets tangled in ever more cumbersome tangles.
Unclogging the sink: the foolproof solution.
Here’s what to do if, despite your best efforts, your sink is blocked.
Get it:
- coarse salt, 150 g
- baking soda , 100 g
- white vinegar, 100ml
- boiling water, 500 ml.
All ingredients must be added one at a time, you will not have to mix them.
In a saucepan, heat the water and bring it to the boil, then turn off the gas and set aside. Remove the pop-up and fill the well completely with coarse salt. Wait for it to settle along the pipes, then add all the bicarbonate.
Use a spoon to check that it is evenly distributed over the salt . Both should still be visible and sticking out of the well. Now pour in the white vinegar , a powerful chemical reaction will take place , producing an effervescent foam . Let it evaporate completely, then add the water which will now be only hot, not boiling to avoid thermal shock in the joints. Wait for it to penetrate the pipes, dissolving the salt, which in turn will capture the dirt and remove it permanently. If the first attempt does not completely clean the sink, repeat the operation until it is completely free… And breathe a long sigh of relief! It ALWAYS works! Guaranteed!
