Do you think your sink is taking a little longer to empty than before? Have you been noticing the formation of a little pool while you take a bath? Do you find a foul odor emitting from your kitchen sink or bathroom<\/a>? If you have been noticing any or all of these, your bathroom\/kitchen<\/strong> is having clogged drain pipes. For the uninitiated, let us tell you this is one of the worst household problems<\/em><\/span> “Unclog Drain Pipes” and needs to be taken care of at the soonest. Unless, of course, you want your pipes to burst.<\/p>\n

\"Unclog<\/p>\n

Don’t worry, unclogging the drainage pipe is not as difficult as it may sound. In fact, if you do it a bit diligently, you may not even require professional help<\/strong>. In fact, you might not require any additional help also. Simply follow these few steps to complete this household task without much effort at all –<\/p>\n

1. Use baking soda and vinegar<\/h2>\n

One of the most effective ways to unclog drainage pipes is to use a mixture of vinegar and baking soda. Simply mix 1\/3 cup of vinegar with the same amount of baking soda. As soon as you mix these two ingredients, you will see it fizz. Waste no time and immediately pour the mixture down the unclogged drain. Let it sit for an hour (or overnight, if you can permit the time) before you flush the area with hot water. The fizz works great to eliminate the gunk and grime, thereby, cleaning the pipe perfectly.<\/p>\n

\"Tips<\/p>\n

2. Bent wire-hanger method<\/h2>\n

This method is relatively easier but works fine as well. You will just need a coat wire hanger for this. Straighten the hanger first and then bend one end of it so that the hanger comes to resemble a hook. Push that hook portion<\/strong> down the drain and keep pulling out the gunk and dirt. However, remember you will have to pull the dirt rather than pushing it farther down. Once you think you are done with cleaning the pipe, pour hot water down it – that’s it!<\/p>\n

\"Best<\/p>\n

3. Pour Boiling Water<\/h2>\n

If you feel your sink has clogged and you want to clear it up, the easiest way is to pour boiling hot water over it. However, remember you should pour the water slowly, in a minimum of two to three stages. Wait for at least thirty seconds between the stages so as to allow the hot water to work its magic.<\/p>\n

\"How<\/p>\n

4. The Wet-and-Dry Vacuum Style<\/h2>\n

If you have a wet-and-dry style vacuum<\/a>, you are in for a treat while unclogging drains. To perform this task, you need to use the vacuum liquids style first. Thereafter, cover up the vent in order to not create a mess. Then, make the tightest seal over the drain. If you wish, you can also adapt an old plunger head for this purpose. With the vacuum turned on its highest setting, it can be powerful enough to draw the clog up the pipe and into the vacuum bag. Thereafter, you can as usual clean the drain with hot water.<\/p>\n
