The baking soda does work. You cannot pour cold water as you did immediately after, only hot water otherwise it will crystalize. It has worked for millions in emergency cases.
Thanks for your input! I'll do another with hot water to show the effect again
@ThePunggolHandyMan Also, everyone doing videos on this are missing the main step. Immediately after pouring the vinegar, use your hand or something to seal off the drain. During the reaction, it produces gas and the pressure is what pushes the clogs.
@darrend9800 in that case a plunger will do a better job won't it?
Works for millions of AMERICANS IN AMERICA 😂
It seems to me that an alkali on its own or an acid on its own would have some effect. It might be small due to the weakness of either bicarb or vinegar, but putting them in both together and causing neutralisation seems to prevent any possible reactions. The build up of carbon dioxide to clear the drain would only really work if the drain were completely blocked off.
When using baking soda and vinegar always flush with boiling water to prevent solidifying.
I am a professional house cleaner and yes it does work. You heat the vinegar first, then pour it into the soda filled drain. Until it no longer boils. I repeat the procedure twice, if necessary and always finish with heated water to pour down the drain. If it is a bathroom sink, have a small strainer or something else to catch any hair that boils out before it can go back down the drain.
How did you fit a sofa in your drain? LOL
@@firstlast1947 Well, it was a miniature sofa made from baking soda! Just have to stuff it in there a little at a time. LOL
My plumber told me not to do this and taught me a different trick: DAWN dish detergent, the same kind they use (still) on animals that get caught in oil flows. He said to pour Dawn down the drain, let it sit for a few minutes, then flush with hot water. Works like a charm. I do it once a week and it keeps my drains open.
I'll try this, thanks for sharing😊
I just think that is bad for septic tanks. Septic tanks need the bacteria and Dawn will kill it.
I’m impressed that a PLUMBER told you this-they have everything to gain from you calling them! I’m buying some Dawn today-thanks!!!
Yes Dawn will work in greasy kitchen sinks. For bathrooms you need to get the hair out. They sell a long thin pokey thing that works!! Pulls the hair right out. Bad clogs may take several attempts, but works. Grab a beer while you do it. 😁
What if garbage disposal gurgles on left sink & rt and pouring scalding water on right makes it come up on left (and vice versa). Gurgles constantly.
I do the baking soda and vinegar just now and it worked I do it all the time them hot boiling water never fails me
Tried baking soda and vinegar many times already and it always work.
Very hot water afterwards yes
Does it help in the bathtub drain where a lot of hair is involved?
@@sweetbeep Yes
professor Amos is by far the best product I ever used
I had a really tough plugged up sink, and it was plugged deep in the pipe. I used some stuff called liquid lightning, and it is a powerful acid. You need to remove as much water as you can and put a coating of some Vaseline around any chrome fittings, because it will discolor them. With gloves, and safety glasses on pour some down the drain. Wait a couple minutes, then flush water down it, and it has always worked for me. We use to use it to unclog drains on A.C. units to. I used it on an outside drain that my plumbing snake could not reach, and it did the job, but be very careful with it, and use it only if a plunger fails to work on inside drains.
True!!! I poured 250g of baking soda and followed by 500ml vinegar, after a few minutes i poured liters of boiling water, baking soda became like a cement. It finally came out in clumps when i used a drain snake and pressurized pump.
Using a Kinetic Water Ram works wonders! No chemicals just the laws of physics! Worth the money invested to purchase as you’ll use it many times in the future.
Thanks you for your input. I do show how to use other methods in my other videos on the channel. Have a look!
Thanks for the tip
Great product introduced by you!!! A friendly and helpful handyman. Though you were on holiday but still able to help me! A million thanks
Glad I could help! Couldn't be there to help but I try my best!
Hey man, Thanks for your video! I saw videos of many doing the exact same thing with the baking soda and Vinegar, and was gonna do the same, but comments there say otherwise too. Which further led to me finding your video. Thanks for showing how this method may worsen the situation. You did us a great service. Appreciate!
Thanks for watching! Along my line of work I came across many who had their sinks choked with baking soda and vinegar. So I had to make this video!
No. The video is wrong. This guy used cold water when you need to use hot first and after. Rookie mistake.
if you notice, this is NOT a kitchen sink. its a bathroom sink, meaning its probably has a lot of HAIR plugging it, meaning vinegar and baking soda may not help. kitchen sinks have all the grease and fats plugging up the pipes.. therefore using baking soda, vinegar, and hot water should do the trick!
What do u do for hair?
@@Notturnoirdrain snake
Didn’t work for me
Let vinegar baking soda sit a while before running hot water down drain
@@theKansasboy97what's drain snake?
Thank you, I have been struggling to get my shower drain to unclog. I think I finally made some progress tonight but it's been slow going. I tried the baking soda and vinegar trick but while it's working well, like I said, it's been slow going. Thank you for introducing this product. I'm going to try to see if I can find it. I would like to be able to take a shower without a half inch of water pooling around my feet. The worst part about it is I think that the tenant before me caused this.
Yes it's likely hair n stuff that's choking
I know the feeling. The shower now drains - slowly but it still drains meaning the shower can be used - but the bathroom sink still doesn't. Interesting part is, if I pour drain cleaner down it gobbles it up like candy but use water and it just sits there for hours. Like you, pretty certain it was the previous tenant who caused the issues.
Pour hot water down first then do the baking soda and vinegar. Then follow with more very hot water. It fixed my problem which was just like yours.
Probably hair clog. Get long thin drain unglogger for hair, Amazon? Some local stores may have it too. Use as directed. Works great. I've been a professional house cleaner for 35 years.
Keep running boiling water as hair problems take longer
Baking soda and vinegar worked for me. I put hot water after 30 minutes it wasn't ready yet but the next day was pretty good
You did the baking soda and vinegar, then waited 30 minutes to do the hot water?
next time, try covering the drain hole right after adding the vinegar.. it'll work much better :)
@@Aeoxmusic you mean cuz the gas pushes stuff down?
You have to use very hot water after the baking soda and vinegar. It does work!
I saw advert s for a foaming toilet cleaner powder you stick the measured amount into the loo,it goals up cleaning the inside of the bowl without you having to use gloves hands etc to c k e an it,I'm wondering if this might work on drains too? Our bathroom has always had slow sluggish drainage it's a pain in the proverbial and I use baking soda and not water whenever it begins to slow the flow out of the drain so it kinda keeps on top of it a bit . Hmmm I would love something like that for the shower
Wow! I’m glad I watched this. It explains why the Baking soda and vinegar made my sink clog much worse!!! I’ll have to head to the store for some strong drain unclogging chemical solution tomorrow. I sure hope I didn’t do any major damage to the pipes!
Yup! Well I've unclothed waaay too many sinks filled with baking soda crystals to know that it's not the best idea!
I'm sure you poured cold water instead of hot water afterwards
He left out the HOT water step, which hardened the bacon soda. Can't fudge the process. he did and that was the results.
Baking soda and vinegar works for normal clogging, you're supposed to pour boiling water at the end to dissolve everything.
Because it's a bathroom sink hair and gunked up soap may be the culprit and it'll come back time and again.... there's a plastic tool at most home depots or Lowes that are about 5 bucks. It's a couple feet long, usually yellow with plastic teeth. You put it down the hole and push back and forth. The gross mass of hair that pulls out is both amazing and satisfying!! I do this every 6 months or so now, in the shower drain as well. You can sanitize the plastic tool to use again instead of throwing it away if you're not too grossed out and just keep using it - bonus! :)
You have to use baking soda & Vinegar with a cup , hot water after 15 minutes is called a big pot of boiling HOT WATER! Drain running free……
Hi thanks for your engagement! Your method work For clogs cost by Fat. Bathroom sinks are normally blocked by hair which does not dissolve in vinegar or baking soda or hot water. It requires A strong chemical to break down v hair so that you can wash it down the sink
@@ThePunggolHandyMan The block was in the laundry line where black soap scum was a mess… Sir the blockage was Not Hair! It backs up in Shower and Kitchen sink…. I treated all of these… and ran a cleaning hot scalding water through the clean cycle
Ahhhh that's another video but I'm glad your problem is solved!
Didn’t work for me. And it truly seemed like it just made it worse. Maybe I had some cold water in my p-trap from running the water earlier. Who knows?
Once a month before going to sleep . I pour a 4 pound box of baking soda down each drain followed with a few minutes of HOT water . Then to pour a gallon of white vinegar [ household ] down each drain . This as to deodorize the drains , though said to keep them clear . Never to pour grease , oils , etc down any drain , ever .
Is the music too loud? I can make it softer... thanks for the feedback. But I can't remove it for this video as it has been published
Yes do not play music no l e limes it
You didn't do all the steps and that's why it caused a different chemical reaction. The hot water and the Dawn dish soap.
I don’t like to use strong chemicals in my drains if I can help it; I live in a mobile home, and the pipes underneath can keep strong chemicals trapped behind a clog or discontinuity within the drainage pipe. I have used baking soda and vinegar with success many times. As one commenter here stated, you have to use warm/hot water, not hot water, to rinse the mixture down the drain.
Much safer for maintenance workers who need to get directly into the drainage pipes!
I can't say about mobile homes but if baking soda and vinegar works the alls good. However in my line of work, I have met guys who would reccomended the baking soda hack over the phone so they can charge more because it will make the clog worse
I hope we have that kind of chemical you bought in the store in our country 😭 cause I have a problem right now in our shower drain
Oh no! Remember you want a declogger not a cleaner!there is a difference
I also live in a mobile and we have one sink that won't unblock. Tried the bicarb and vinegar with hot water and it did nothing. Water still won't drain.
@@ABC1701A I tried it last day and it really worked! But I need to buy lots of it just in case it will clogged again
I think the vinegar and baking soda is for regular maintenance (with boiling water) NOT clogged drains??
You may notice that the active ingredient is SODIUM HYDROXIDE. It's a lot cheaper to just buy a can of sodium hydroxide crystals for about $5, add 5-10gm to the sink and flush it down with a little bit of water and give it an hour or two to work. If the pipes are plastic, dissolve the sodium hydroxide in a little bit of water in a cup first. let it cool down before pouring it to avoid melting the pipe. If the blockage is a few feet from the sink, you may have to repeat with the chemical a second time to push it onto the blockage. Flush with water after a few hours.
One can is good for 50 times or so, cost for each time = $0.10.
Thank you so much! I am definitely going to try this 👍
For the record sodium hydroxide isn't the safest thing to use. I certainly wouldn't want that on my skin. Yes lye works great but 100 percent lye is dangerous as the amount of people that will try and wash it off afterwards is silly. Also if the drain doesn't clear now you have lye in the pipes ... Not fun for anyone
@@evancurtis5458 It's not as dangerous as you make it out to be, unless you get it in your eyes. It all depends on the concentration and the amount. If you get it on your hands, rinse it off within 10 sec and it would do no harm. I do that all the time. People that make the bamboo leaves wrapped glutinous rice packages for the dragon boat festival have their hands in contact with lye for hours on end, and can feel the burning sensation on their hands.
If u put a bottle of Drano down the drain and it does not clear, u basically have a similar but a lot more expensive situation. Just give it more time. As long as the blockage is due to something organic, it'll dissolve. It's good for dissolving a whole dead body.
@@evancurtis5458 It's not as dangerous as you make it out to be. It all depends on the amount and concentration. I would rather dip my whole hand in a bucket of lye than in a bucket of boiling water, as long as there is water available for me to rinse it off right away.
A short skin contact does not do any harm, as long as you can rinse it off within 10 sec or so. People that make bamboo leaves wrapped glutinous rice dumpling for the dragon boat festival have their hands come into contact with lye for hours on end, and can feel the burn on their hands.
Pouring a bottle of Drano down the drain creates a similar but far more expensive situation if it doesn't clear. If the blockage is due to something organic, give it more time and it'll dissolve, as lye can dissolve a whole dead body. Or dilute it with more water and scoop it out to be disposed of in another drain.
@@tkjho I am sure you have been safe with it and are handling it properly.
PH scale is 13-14
FPA diamond is 3-0-1.
It's extremely corrosive if not one of the most corrosive bases. It reacts with water moisture in the air.
Yes other drain cleaners use these chemicals and may cause similar irritation, but not in the same exposure rates. I didn't want someone to try to save $3 and end up having to seek medical attention.
Under the sink should be a removeable trap. Put a small container of some kind under the drain and remove the trap. That’s where your problem might be. Shine a flashlight down and see if you can see the problem area. Clean out. Put trap back on. If it’s further down than that then you’ll have to try something else.
That's too advanced for millennials
Does it work on toliets for cooking grease was poured down it?
Yes 😊 I've tried on a really bad second bathroom toilet. Used Dawn dish detergent baking soda vinegar and hot h20 sit for hour add boiling h20 again then flush. Definitely works ☺️
baking soda and vinegar works for my drain, he had old baking soda. run hot water after baking soda and vinegar then let it sit for few minutes then run hot water or boiling water again.
This is a bathroom sink. Bathroom sinks have hair, and sometimes shaving products from shavers etc etc.. which require a strong chemical or mechanical unclog. I do believe baking soda and vinegar works on old food and grease, in kitchen sinks.
THANK YOU!
Purchase "Liquid Fire" gross smell but does the job!
A half cup of salt down the drain followed by a half cup of soda, next a cup or vinegar. I leave 4-5 hours or overnight then pour boiling or very hot water down the drain and flush with hot water for 5-10 minutes.
The cheapest way is to fill the sink with just water to maximum level and release it to see if the weight of water can push all the gunk forward into the drain. If not, use a plunger to help clear the drain, along with the weight of water. If the water level goes down a little, turn on the tap for continuous water flow to maximize the weight of the water. It works every time for me. It is a waste of money buying chemicals or foams to unclog your drains. Just simple physics will do!
Does this work for bathtubs where a lot of hair is involved?
Bro you did it wrong you have to pour boiling hot water down the drain first (or at the very least the hottest temperature water from your sink for 15 minutes straight) then wait 15 minutes, thennn you put the baking soda followed by the white vinegar, then you pour more hot water down the drain, then follow up with warm water, then cold water if you’re afraid of boiling your pipes
Also, if you know hair is what’s causing the clog, remove that first with a hair plyer
And what if the hot water sits in the sink until it's gone cold - like it does in mine. I've tried the bicarb and vinegar and all that happened was the water went cold and it still doesn't drain. Might work with some drains but didn't for me.
@@ABC1701A Did you get the hair out first with the long pokey thing they sell just for hair?
As stated below: Finish with boiled hot water and it works! I am a landlord and the baking soda, vinegar and boiling water always works.
I find that a plastic drain snake works wonders. It's just a 36 inch piece of plastic with a bunch of whiskers that catch hair when you pull it back out of the sink. Just ram it all the way down the sink, lift it up, clear the hair, repeat about 5x, and your sink is totally clear! The cost per treatment of your sink is $0, and the cost of the drain snake is $5 at a local hardware store (Cobra TOOLS Drain Cleaning Tool - Ace Hardware - $3.99).
brother you have to cover the drain hole after putting in the vinegar so it creates pressure and blows through
Add some dawn dishwashing liquid too
If you pour hot water straight after the soda and vinegar it works..
Not really. Got water does not dissolve hair
Didn't work for me. The bakeing soda and vinager and hot water didn't work
First of all before you judge if something works or not follow the instructions; you use a cup of baking soda and a cup of vinegar, let set for at least a half hour and pour hot water, not cold down the drain; and it does work on kitchen sinks, you talking about like and subscribe, get it right first💯
Thanks for the info! Ten minutes left to go until the hot water.
Using boiling or even very hot water before or after the bicarb doesn't work either, it just sits in the basin until it's cold - very very slow draining sink. Tried this several times and it was a monumental failure, if anything the sink now drains even more slowly.
Just maybe you did it wrong.... it works for others. Go figure! He left out the hot water.....
Baking soda and vinegar does work. I use it when I need to and works every time.
Why did you add clumps of baking powder ? For any chemical reaction to happen efficiently it is suggested to use powder (the more the surface area , the more vigorous the chemical reaction) ..... If you add clumps of Baking powder then you will get clumps later also.
Baking SODA
From my experience, this is what I found that actually works. 1. For soft clogs, use the baking soda and vinegar mix. When you do it, make sure to close the drain opening with something to allow the gases to push the grime and gunk out the other end. That's essentially what it does. Then rinse with hot (not boiling water), do this with a large pot or two pots of water. Repeat until the clog is fixed. Do this every week to prevent. Also, don't put food or hair in drain. If you need to shave, get a safety razor (the one with single blade razors made of metal, they are way more affordable in the long run and give you a better shave without ingrown hairs and razor burn), they don't clog like cartridge razors. Rinse in bowl instead of sink and throw in toilet or outside, garbage, etc. Buy drain catches or strainers if you can to reduce clog. 2. For hard clogs, use enzyme cleaners. Green gobbler is one of them. They are safer, and better for environment, and actually work. Let it do it's job over night. It takes a while. But it will get almost everything. 3. Use a plastic drain snake, or regular drain snake to finish the job if needed. 4. If worse comes to worst, you might need a pro as a last resort. That's what I have used. No serious issues since.
I have a clog in my bathtub drain .. prob lots of hair .. will the vinegar and baking soda work for that?
No.. baking soda and vinegar does not dissolve hair
@@ThePunggolHandyMan do the chemicals dissolve hair?
Yes the chemicals are designed to dissolve proteins means it can cause burns to your skin it does not harm plastics. However if your pipes are made of metal please check and see if the chemicals you use are suitable. And always fluxh it through with lots of water once the job is done
If you look at 04:26 the chemicals dissolved and pushed the hair away
@@ThePunggolHandyMan ok thanks. How do I check to see if my metal pipes are suitable with the chemicals?
Or you can use a plunger
If it is a bathroom drain all you need to do is pour a cup or two down the drain. It will unstop the drain in less than five minutes. Clorox eats proteins up and hair is protein. Drains that have grease and other contaminants may not like this method?
Great and informative video! What I also deeply appreciated is the number of commenters, who also gave insight into fixing a universal problem. So, thanks to all of you! ♥
There was never a problem to this hack because every tutorial about this trick always mentioned pouring boiling hot water at the end. I don't know why this guy missed it.
I always thought that baking soda and vinegar was used as a drain freshener for the kitchen sink- not for de-clogging.
Well if you read the comments you'd realise that many of them are ardent fans of this method 😉
I think it does freshen the drains. Kills any mildew, I think.
Err not really
@@ThePunggolHandyManvinegar can be used for mildew
There are other steps as well that help this process, I also do use dish soap with my final hot water flush
A plumber told me to get a box of table salt pour it down the drain, boil a pot of water and pour it down the drain and it will unclog the drain. I KNOW THAT WORK FROM EXPERIENCE.
You forgot the hot water
Hot water does not dissolve hair. This stuff does You can try it!
On a instruction video I saw, you first pour boiling water down the drain then baking soda.....it was a little different.
Didn't work for me, the water just sat there until it was cold.
All of the videos i saw after they put the baking soda in the drain they put in a equal amount of vinegar down the drain and let it set for 30 minutes and then they poured hot water down the drain and after they did that the drain was clean, no more clogged drain. YOU DID NOT GO THROUGH THE CORRECT STEPS AND YOU DID NOT ADD THE HOT WATER.
If it’s clogged how can you pour water down the drain for 15 minutes?
Good deduction! Very perceptive. If there is hot water in the basin for too long it will crack!
sounds like YOU need a plumber!
Hard chemicals are very harsh to the environment and expensive. Use baking soda and vinegar but use boiling water not cold, it works fine every time.
4 Steps to Unclog Your Drain with Baking Soda & Vinegar
Start by pouring a pot of boiling water down the drain.
Next, pour a cup of baking soda and 1 cup water/1 cup vinegar solution.
Cover with the drain plug and wait 5 to 10 minutes.
Pour boiling water down the drain again.
Thanks for the tip but as you can see from the video, the reaction actually produces hard chunks. That's why I wouldn't advise it. BNV is not actually a good solution.
The very scalding, hot water is the answer, so it doesn’t form hard chunks, sir
Thanks for the product but baking soda and vinegar works pretty well
Well if it works it works!
Haven't seen your follow up vid using hot water instead of cold water after pouring the baking soda and vinegar
Yea. I did and ended up cracking a sink so. There won't be a video for that
Yep I cracked a bathroom ceramic sink with hot water too.
Remedy is probably for kitchen stainless steel sink.
@medialcanthus9681 that's what I've been trying to tell everyone. That the thermal shock will destroy a ceramic sink. But nooooo hacks are a good idea it seems. That's why some of us like hacks cos it gives us more business!
pour boiling water down the drain. then use a pump plunger and pump for around 30 seconds. test the drain .
keep doing this unil the drain is completely unblocked.
Sodium hydroxide and hot water works best for me.
Use hot/boiling water, NEVER cold water. The cold water is why it crystalizes. I had a clog today, used nothing but baking soda and hot water, and it's running fine now.
Geez! You went straight for the Mr. Perfect with the image of a serpent dragon one. Instead of the Jack e (Chan) one? They both would work?? ?
Thanks & Subscribed!
With baking soda abd vinegar, hot boiling water usually follows! Not cold water.
I have calcium build up in my shower drain, horrible. Can’t get water to drain out of the tub🤦🏽♀️
Weird, I just used baking soda and vinegar and my sink became unclogged.
Why didn't you pull out the hair and the other stuff out before putting a bucket of water into the sink ???
Hello because the point of this video is showing the effectiveness of the product. I've got another video on different methods ! Do check out the rest of the channel
@@ThePunggolHandyMan O.K reason accepted 🙂
Use a flexible drill attachment
Yada Yada Yada very technical!
Let it sit 20 minutes. Then pour HOT water down the drain.
If you don't know what you're doing, why mis-inform others.
Thanks
You didn't mention what chemical that cleaning solution you bought in the grocery store. It's most probably lye or sodium hydroxide.
It's Sodium Hydroxide. But the foaming action causes it to expand and fill the pipes
The problem with using chemicals - if it does not clear the clog, you have to disassemble the trap and pipes with dangerous chemicals in them. If a drain is totally clogged, I just go straight for the trap and pipes.
Baking soda and vinegar works.
BUT first you poor boiling water, then baking soda, vinegar. MAKE SURE you do not inhale the gas! I quickly cover with plastic, and let sit for 10-15 min.
Then more boiling water.
A gallon should be enough before and after.
I have done it 10-15 times different places.
Works every time.
Forgot you need boiling water to make the baking soda and vinigar hack work. Also that is for kitchen sinks to clear greese clogs. You are doing a bathroom sink probably a hair clog. Two different problems with two different solutions.
Did the baking soda and vinegar thing on blocked toilet and slow draining sinks and it worked !!! I was expecting nothing and ready to phone plumber.
Use boiling water to stop it crystallizing.
You should used washing soda and hot water (sodium carbonate: Na2CO3) not baking soda and cleaning/household vinegar (sodium bicarbonate: NaHCO3). Never use drain cleaner because it's acid and will damage the PVC.
what about caustic soda (lye), ie sodium hydroxide ? thx
😑… it’s now big deal people..
Thanks for the tips. It’s always nice to get different opinions.
Whatever works for you or not.. take it or leave it. Haha
Lol thank you! Never knew BSV could be so controversial
Have to pour boiling water after vinegar..cold water doesn't work!
Use a shopvac to sucknthr clog out
You didn't use hot water first. I think the hot water keeps the baking soda from harding
You clearly did not leave the vinegar and baking soda long enough.
baking soda and vinegar will form nothing but water when combined. and i don't know how you got those chunks, but I have never seen that b4.
Heat up the vinegar ....
No leh. The NTUC one 5.95 on special. Mr Perfect is not the most expensive.
Lol 2 years ago
vinegar and baking soda works just fine, it all depends on the circumstances.
Boiling water has worked much better for getting rid of smells in my sink. Dunno about unclogging though.
Boiling water sanitizes
Call a trusted plumber 😁🎊
I just take trap off from underneath it. Quick n simple
I’m frustrated because I regularly clog up my pipes after taking a huge dump 💩. My family have disowned me and my therapist doesn’t seem to have any sympathy for me. My most embarrassing situation happened when I clogged up the toilet at my local Denny’s and had to pay a fortune for their head office plumber come out and scrape the massive turd out
You forgot boiling water with the baking soda and viengar
Guys please do not pour boiling hot water into a porcelain sink. You risk damage and cracking due thermal shock. especially since quite a number of my viewers live in cooler climates, the sudden difference in temperature may cause damage to your sink and pipes. Not to mention, If you're dumping a hot pot of water in, you risk scalding yourself. A regular tap already splashes water everywhere, what more a waterfall of boiling water!
I would not ever reccomend anything that could potentially cause damage or injury.
I would not reccomended it in a metal sink either. In any case, my mantra is the same; there are proper products for the job!
Cola works too. Not nearly as corrosive as the chemicals. Only $1.
Yeah but you get ants.....
A friend of mine tried cola, and there was an huge nest of cockroaches stuck in the pipe. They escaped and went everywhere in the kitchen it was scary 😳
hey if that's the case. what are your thoughts on club soda or sparkling water. something carbonated without sugar@@ThePunggolHandyMan
If it works, the clog wasn't actually a clog. But if it is hair n stuff. It won't work. There are proper products
If you pause the video at the product selection, "Pipe Declogger" is more expensive than the one you got. You didn't get the most expensive one.
You are right! But it is a bigger bottle ! I think I was looking at the price per ml. But this was a year ago!
Use hot water not cold water
U have to use real hot water
I would try a plunger first.
That's another video
HELLO SORRY IT WORKS PARFECT FOR ME JUST A GOOD QUALITY BACON SODA! CHEAPER
Most expensive one? all the way to the right is 9.90 :) no clue and also blind tz :)
Well it's unit cost o was talking about. But o well
