Tricks to un-clog tub/sink
Anybody got any??!!??!! Our tub takes FOREVER to drain. DH took it apart the other night and tried to fix it. Well it didnt help. Ive tried drano before but maybe should try that again. Can anyone help, Im starting to get aggrivated. TIA!
Re: Tricks to un-clog tub/sink
Use the foaming pipe snake from Drano or Liquid Plumber. If it starts to foam up out of the drain, stop pouring and go back 5-10 minutes later, pour some more, and repeat until you get the whole bottle down (the foaming stuff is meant to be used the entire bottle at once, but I've never been able to get the whole bottle to pour down the drain without overflowing into the tub).
Once it's all in there, leave it in about thirty minutes (after the last of it goes in, not from the beginning when you start pouring it). Then rinse it down with a lot of hot water (leave it running for like 5 minutes).

I don't know if this is the right thing to do, but I've used bleach.
I throw a few cups down the drain and do nothing overnight. The water goes down much easier in the shower the next morning.
snaking it would probably be best - we've done baking soda and vinegar plus a few drops of dish soap. this is what i use to clean and it really breaks down the build up from soaps and conditioner.
Doing the snake is best. Pouring stuff down, despite what the bottle says isn't best and the stuff that really does work usually needs a license to buy. (Of course so you still pay money)
I think you can rent or buy a snake tool from Home Depot.
