1. Plumbing Guide: 7 Ways To Unclog A Bathtub Professional & Licensed Plumbers Services
2. 1. Equip with tools required at first To eliminate the blockage that is causing your bathtub to drain, you'll require all of the following equipment: •A bucket or cup (for making nails with water) •A screwdriver •Rubber gloves •Old towels or rags •A cup plunger We also recommend putting one of these things before you begin: •Protective eyewear •Rubber boots •A plastic apron or some other piece of clothing
3. 2. Get rid of stagnant water. • If you find any water standing in your tub, flush it before beginning. • Use cups or a bucket to drain the water, then pour it down the drain next to it.
4. 3. Take out stopper and strainer. • Most bathtub drains come with stoppers or strainers that stop hair and other items from flowing down the drain. • To clear the drains of your bathtub, it is important to get these obstructions from the way. • Remove the stopper yourself; however, most strainers will be anchored to the drainage hole by just one screw. • Remove this screw to take the filter away from the drain.
5. 4. Include hot water in the bath • If the tub isn't draining after you've removed the filter, your drain has probably been blocked. • Before you begin, the process of unblocking your tub will require you to use the faucet to pour some inches of hot water into the tub. • It is crucial to add enough water to completely submerge the plunger's cap when you put it into the drain. • The water will cause the suction and the pressure required to get rid of the blockage of your bathtub.
6. 5. Check for debris expulsion. • After 10 or 15 minutes of pumping, you'll rupture the seal you've created around the drain by removing the plunger. • If you can clear the blockage, you'll see filthy water or debris emerging from the drain when you remove the plunger. • This is because of the force produced by the plunger inside the cup. The plunger is designed to move the blockage inside your tub drain until it reaches the surface and away from your drain. • Instead of pushing it down to break it up into pieces (which is how toilet plungers function).
7. 6. Use a plunger for the drain • These plungers, also known as cup-style plungers, are "conventional" plungers you envision when you think of plungers. • The plunger's head plunger in the cup, then places it over the drain, creating an extended seal. • Make sure the plunger is at an angle of 90 degrees parallel with the drain. • Use the handle to push the plunger's head downwards and then push it inward until it "resets" to its original shape. • Repeat this process swiftly and continuously for around ten pumps or approximately 30 minutes.
8. 7. Repeat the process several times • After you've broken the seal and allowed the debris to fall away, The water in the tub will start draining normally; if it doesn't, then there's a blockage that wasn't cleared to this point. • You can try this method several times until you've noticed some results. If you've tried this method several times and still can't eliminate the blockage, then it's the right time to change methods. • This technique can remove any obstructions to your bathtub. If plungers do not work, it is possible to try baking soda or get into the drain with the plunger's claw or a tool. • It could be more than a simple blockage if you cannot solve the issue.
