  • Watch part 2 of the Balkan "Unclog Sinks With Baking Soda and Vinegar Challenge". In this challenge we'll form 3 different sink clogs using coffee grounds, hair, and grease (we use butter, which is essentially grease). Then we'll give baking soda and vinegar a fair chance to unclog what is a typical sink drain clog. Hopefully this helps folks out there understand if baking soda and vinegar works to unclog sinks, and to see how it actually works as well. It should become clear that the effective nature of combining baking soda and vinegar is the gas that is formed. This gas creates pressure, and in many instances will force the clog down the drain. However, as best as we can tell, baking soda and vinegar do not dissolve clogs, hair, or grease.

    I had the surprise of my life this afternoon when I pour equal parts of vinegar and bicarbonate of soda with equal parts of lime juice down my kitchen drain , one pot of boiling water then plunge. Within minutes the drain was unclogged

    You need to mix the baking soda with water so it gets around the clog. Plus add salt so you have some scrubbing action. Then heat the vinegar to boiling that we’ll help with the grease and pour away. I,have used it several; times and it works. But there are clogs where only the industrial store bought will work

    Yeah thanks a ton for that, I would like to see a hard clog and see if it eats away at a hard clog, the clear pipes made things interesting to see, thanks.

      The baking soda and vinegar obviously form a gas. That pushes out soft clogs. On a hard clog they sell what we call blow bags. They pressurize water and could work on harder clogs. They’re also called drain bladders.

    Did you watch the video before posting? The text banners covered the results.

      If that’s true, sorry about that. I think that depends on what device you watch it on.

    Thanks for this vid. It looked like gas pressure moved the coffee grounds. Not the gunk-disolver I'd hoped for bu still important to know.

      You’re welcome. IMO and via our experiment, the gas pressure is the key component to moving the clog. But of course so many folks have their own opinion. I have no idea why there are such devotees to baking soda and vinegar. It’s much easier to just remove a sink trap and physically clean it out. Takes about 10 or 15 minutes. Most clogs are in the trap or sink pop up.

    The drains weren't even clogged!! The blockage was just placed there!! What a joke

  • @Flathead_Nirvana

    The compression of air is what moves the clog this works very effectively if u block the sink waste inlet after pouring in the vinegar, otherwise u won’t move ur clog!!

    • @balkanplumbing
      @balkanplumbing  5 месяцев назад

      It’s the compression of the water by the gas formed. Here’s a better 2nd try: ruclips.net/video/LwShcF1eKtk/видео.htmlsi=9X01-3EkvCpx3RWJ

    Stupid idea, baking soda will form hard like a rock and will clog the pipes later.

      No it won't been using baking soda for 30 years, you need to put boiling water after the blockage has been removed.

    • @Godsforever1

      how can it become a rock if there's always water in the pipes
