Slightly off course, but what do I do if the hot water in my shower is slow to get hot ?
@@shonoff83 Boil a large pot of water on the stove. It Always does the trick for 'slow to come' hot water!!😉
THANK YOU SIR! SUBSCRIBED. 🥺
@SilverCymbal what does the baking soda supposedly do?
My only shower drain issue is my strainer gets dirty real quick causing a clog so I have to rinse it so often.
Tried using shampoo as lube and it worked great! Maybe I'll get around to cleaning the shower drain next week too.
LOL!!!! 🤣
underrated post
🤣🤣🤣
Fricking hilarious loooool
I bought that and it broke in the drain, where I could not reach.....
Was going to call a plumber today for my clogged shower. Fortunately for me, I found your video and you made it look sooo easy! I asked my husband to pick up the two tools on his way home and didn't even spend 10$. You saved us so much money thanks so much!!
Sounds like you have a nice caring husband, hope you have a long good life together
@@OmniKonekothey r divorced
Fresh meat on the market eh? Looking to get those cobwebs out your plumbing?
I’m so thankful for the internet. This video helped me after three annoying months of trying other solutions to unclog my bathtub drain. It feels really good to be able to help myself and learn skills without having to rely on others. Thank you for the clear and concise video, sincerely from a 22 year old trying to take care of myself.
You're smart for learning this stuff young. I always had boyfriends most of my younger life. Now I'm a single middle aged woman and having to learn this stuff! It's stressful but it feels so good when I manage to do something and avoid calling a professional. And next time I'm in a relationship, he won't have to do everything for me, lol.
@@thecircledanceI’m 22 wait yo, you said you’re single? What’s the instagram 😏
If you put vinegar down the drain, after the baking soda, it should react with any undisolved soda and bubble, loosening up debris and hair. Heck, pour straight baking soda down before the vinegar. It's amazing what that can knock loose.
agreed thats what I do!
I’ll remember that one. Thank you.
I did that like 5 times back to back and it's still slow. I took the pipes off and didn't see anything
@@denisemaher342 @CiCi did that work?
@@denisemaher342 What is the scrubber brush called and where exactly do I get it?
Thank you for this video! Our shower had a slow drain that was almost a complete blockage, but this worked. The amount of happiness watching the water drain during my last shower 😂
So glad it helped. I moved recently and did this exact thing on 2 drains here. Nastiness came out, but now they loo spotless and drain like new again. Chemicals are a waste of time
I'm a housekeeper for the base and wondered how to thoroughly clean the shower drain. Thank you for the excellent informative video!
Not drain related necessarily but bathroom related. 50/50 mix of vinegar and dawn dish soap. Best thing to clean your shower.
Especially the glass shower doors!
Depending on the size of the batch, 1:1 is a LOT of Dawn. I used to use a lot too, then started adding only about 4 squirts in a cup or more of vinegar. Still gets the job done with minimal scrubbing.
I ended up buying the $40 Rigid drain snake that attaches to a drill. Its a high quality tool that works extraordinarily well and pushes all that stuff through. Best of all it saves you a $300 service call to clear our a stuck drain!
Hubby's got one, too....works wonders!!😉
Have one,used it,pulled some hair,etc out and it’s still clogged.Will be trying baking soda and vinegar tomorrow.
Even drano isn’t helping much.There may be some causing it other than clog.
Great advice for those of us on a septic system and well water!!! Thank you and Happy New Year!
If you have ever given your Golden Retriever a bath or shower in the tub, you will need this video. Much appreciated.
“Might feel some resistance as you first slide it in but just push it bit harderr “ got it 😂👌
pervert 😋
heyYO!!!! SEX
I’m #69 who liked this, yay!
In some countries, that's called Rape.
🤣🤣🤣
I was like 👀
I have been using one of those for years! They work amazing!
IT WORKS! This is definitely the best. I just happened to have one of those long brushes that I bought for my dryer lint and vent. Never thought to use it for drains, though. Great video. Thank you so much.
Scalding hot water mixed with viniger worked for me
It's also fun to mix vinegar and baking soda
Viniger
@@Howhungry1234 i cant sepell for shit
Boiling water is not good for pipes
@@thundermite1241 true
Live in a newly constructed house about a 1 1/2 old now, i do exactly what you did as preventative maintenance on all my pipes about every 6 months the only thing i do different is Vinegar with the baking soda. Great tip look forward to the next video.
ALWAYS USE A HAIR SNARE OVER THE DRAIN WHEN SHOWERING TO CATCH EXCESSIVE HAIR AND PREVENT DRAIN CLOGS!
This will work sometimes, good video. I happen to drain and sewer lateral clear professionally. What you really want to do is run a power snake with a pig tail head down if the clog is further down near the stack. The method shown in the video is great for cleaning p traps however.
Can you put a bladder in it just to clean it for maintenance or will that flush any trash further in line and cause a clog?
What about when that doesn't work? We bought a house that was vacant for 6 yrs and the drains are all muddy
Thank you so much for this!! The brush idea helped me deep clean my drains .
I have that draining cleaning tool as well and it is amazing. I have not cleaned it beyond that however, will try that next! Thanks!
Cool video, coil brush good idea to scrub it clean. My old house still had a drum trap on it, that baby drained so slow. After replacing it , I cracked it open to see what was inside. 60 yrs worth of hair,soaps.
Sounds Fun
Soaps are made from oils. clean everything with dawn dishwashing liquid, cleans the soap crud that attracts hair ,dirt , skin, etc.
I was told by a plumber to avoid getting grease down the drain in kitchen sinks and to use Dawn and hot water to keep the drains free flowing.
@@valvenator Yes, definitely definitely definitely do not pour grease and/or oil down the drain. I'm sorry that your plumber had to tell you that, but better late than never.
Just tried this. Life saver!! Totally works🤗🤗
Thanks a lot ❤️
Thanks for posting this video; I ordered the drain brush and drain tool this morning...
Thank you very much for this video, my drain in the bath was very very slow and i was just about to call a plumber. Im over the moon to say that, i just gave it a go and now my bath is draining so quickly, likes it brand new. Thanks again you have saved me a lot of money 👍😄
So glad it helped. KI moved recently and did the thing on a 30+ year old drain here. Makes a huge difference and you likely wont have to touch it again for years
I have a drum trap and it gets clogged up pretty easily. I used a snake and pulled out a huge fir ball loaded with soap scum. I replaced my drain grate with the TubShroom. Probably the first As Seen on TV product that actually works. I clean plenty of hair off of it every week and thankfully it no longer gets down my drain. No issues in over a year.
Been considering that, good to know. Thanks for sharing.
Those quick zips are the best things that I found to help clear a drain
Used to work for liquid plumr, most clogs are hair - great tips.
This worked perfectly! Thank you for sharing this video with us.
Quick straight to the point and use a natural method A+ great video
Tks as always SC. Happy new yeah.
Those screws resting precariously next to the drain are triggering me
Those drain cleaning tools work great! The dollar store sells them for $1.25 and I use it on my sink drain all the time. I will try the shower drain next with your additional tips.
Thanks for sharing, I’m gonna run over there now
The plastic snakes break easily though. When I tried using one, several teeth broke after first use.
Omg I must try this tonight. Thank you.
Great tutorial. Many thanks!
“Start by emptying your shower bay” hold up it was sposed to be full??!! 😂 great vid as always👍
As always, GREAT video ! Thank you.
Thought for sure you were gonna pour in some vinegar after the baking soda, for the dramatic effect and cleanup….haha. Anyway, great video as always! Wishing you and your family a geeat 2022 year!!
Excellent video with simple tools, helped a lot... thanks and god bless!!!
I used a drain cleaner sachet as I didn’t have the same type of drain, there were no screws and it worked, it’s running sooo much better 😇
I agree. This really does work.
I have got one of those they very helpful also when someone washes hair at least it stays on top and when use in sink it sure is great idea 😊
Thanks Silver! Have always found your videos to be of some help. 👍🏼
Glad to help
Good work and love your content.
I love those Zip-It things they really work.
Great video, that is definitely an effective technique, baking soda and vinegar also helps break debris up with hot water, I'm definitely going to look for one of those brushes though, that's a good brush to have on hand for many different things I feel like
My drain cover has no screws and not removable!! But still going to use the baking soda and the vinegar. Thank you!
Being this is a very effective procedure I have shared your video with many family and friends. Thank you very much!
Much appreciated, thank you
wow impressive plumbing Paul 👌
Woooooow! It was such a pleasure watching your video. Very instructive and so easy to do. Warm greetings from Algeria :)
Thank you for your video. I have a slow bathtub drain. I used the baking soda + water and it worked!
So glad it was helpful. Thank you
Thanks gonna try this tomorrow ❤
Thank you I’m gonna try it out!
I don't watch these videos for knowledge. I just enjoy the way he speaks. Music to the ears 🎶
I had been struggling with a bathroom sink that was plugged, worked on that think for years getting little bits out but it still drained slow. I finally seen the clog tool bought it and yes these things work fast & yes gross.
1st . I have one of those and I have never used it but I will now !!!
One of the best inventions, cheap & effective and the brush in part 2 will really improve flow
This video is God sent.
In order to reach deeper, I use a 14 gauge electric wire with a hook at the end, works great to pull up all that hair! Note, I hand spin it so it will go easily into the elbows and turns.
Good advise and easy to make with stuff laying around the house. Thanks
Very nice that you show how to clean a drain manually! The caustic sodium hydroxide with aluminium which is in almost every pipe cleaner destroys not only the pipes but more the water which will turn into our drinking water again.
Effective and easy to use is also a plunger.
I appreciate that. I have never used drain cleaners and never will. The only guarantee they have is to take a lot of money for people desparate for help. I hope this video helps some save some money and headaches.
Usually the clogs are from dirt and sand that settle in the bottom in the p-trap. The plunger creates a much faster flow rate through the pipe and then the slow dribble from the shower so it's able to stir up this dirt and sand and push it the rest of the way down the drain. My RV shower clogged after a trip to the sand dunes and all I did was put the hose that I was using to flush out the toilet tank into the shower and used my hand so that it created a huge flow straight down the drain
Crushed it. No nonsense instructions
Thank you for this!
Good idea with the baking soda! 🤘
Great straight forward vid. Thx
Thank you this was very helpful 😊
Great video. Zep works great, too.
EXACTLY WHAT I NEEDED this very singular day...🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟👍🙋🌹
Am from unblocking my shower drain right now but I just used my hand and took off all the dirt inside am super proud of myself💪🏾😂😅😂
So easy even I could do it! Thank you. :)
Can’t wait for my next clogged drain ! 👌🏻😅
LOL
Great vid! Happy New Year!
Thanks! You too!
Thanks this was very helpful
That was a useful tip 👍
Vinegar with dawn for dishes...works for me and it is easy wait 30 minutes and let the warm water runs😊😊😊
This worked extremely well for me
So glad to hear that,I moed recently and al the drains were slow. One by one, I did this again and it makes them like new, and no toxic chemicals that barely work anyway
Damn that drain is clean enough for a drill instructor to eat out of
They just seem to love to eat out of anything you clean and well enough for their next meal 😂
TOP MARKS MATE. VERY USEFUL INFORMATION 👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾🙂🙂🙂👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾💯💯💯
I pour a squirt of Dawn down each of the drains at least once a week. Let it sit for 5 minutes and then rinse with warm water.
THANK YOU! I tried that crappy drain cleaner from the store last week and it did NOTHING. I tried this today and at first it didn't seem to do anything. I took a shower a little while later and the tub filled right back up as usual. I stepped out of ankle-deep water and started drying myself off. Then, I heard the most beautiful sound I've heard in months - a properly-draining bathtub. Definitely pay attention to how he points out that it is HOT WATER, NOT COLD. Cold water will crystalize the baking soda quickly, making the blockage even worse. Make sure it's hot hot hot.
I use max strength liquid plummer put it my drains once a month run hot water never have had problem 15 min set before you run the hot water they drain awesome
Thanks. This helped
Buen trabajo!!
A discovery of my shower drain grate is the it has an integrated hair catch that is exposed once the grate is removed. Cleared plastic hair strainer and now drains perfectly.
My friend (Master plumber) pours some bleach in the shower drain once a month... let’s it sit and rinses with hot water. ((Wife & 2 daughters))
Helpful advice! YT Honest Carpenter's new apprentice ! I am already subscribed. Thx!
Great. Just wanted to say happy new year
Happy new year to you too.
Great video
this is good info thanks
Amazing! Thank you,
I love those things. I have one under each sink. McNasty stuff in there
Brilliant upload
Thank you, I really appreciate it
Reminded me I need to do this. Also my shower looks identical haha.
have the same easy cover did this last year with clog snake. works well!
Nice job.
Excellent. As usual.
Much appreciate thank you!
I’d love to see you do a review on cleaning gutters. The type that attach to your vacuum cleaner with a long pole so you can do it from the ground.
Cheers.
home depot sells cheap gutter guards that are a plastic with a mesh top. i installed those and havent cleaned gutters in years, or even had a clog because everything stays on top and the wind blows it off. in fall, you can attach a long tube to your leaf blower and really blow the heavy leaves off (if any), but its a remarkably simple way to keep gutters clean for good.
Thanks for this informations .😅
You have the smaller version of the pipe groomer, we have one that is 5 feet and you hook it to a drill and it cleans the pipes, *Great video*
Love the drill concept, saves time and energy.
@@RedNicole22 Thanks.
Dawn will work very well with the brush.
2:00 so much innuendo after this point if you just listen with your eyes closed
