For the methods we will reveal to you to be much more effective, it is important to first pour a kettle of hot water into your pipes. By doing this, some of the debris will be able to loosen with the heat and be carried away.
You can also use a plunger if the blockage is still persistent. The role of the diver will be to cause pressure changes in the pipe in order to unstick and eliminate blockages.
The sink should be filled with enough water to cover the plunger and create a seal. Now let’s move on to the solutions to use for unblocking.
Using vinegar and baking soda
This first solution consists of pouring the bicarbonate into the siphon and waiting a few minutes before adding the vinegar. You will then have to let the two ingredients act.
You will notice, after another few minutes, that air bubbles will begin to form. This is a sign that the blockage is being resolved. Finally pour boiling water so that the debris that has been dissolved is flushed out.
The combination of vinegar and baking soda produces a chemical reaction that creates carbon dioxide. The reaction caused by these 2 ingredients contributes to the dissolution and evacuation of debris.
The use of coarse salt, bicarbonate and vinegar
For this second method, you will need to mix these 3 ingredients and pour the solution obtained into your pipe. After a few minutes, finally pour boiling water down your drain.
