To clear the blockage, you will need a couple of simple ingredients.

Active participation in the work is reduced to a minimum; there is no need to fiddle around with a plunger or remove a siphon for a long time.

If a blockage occurs, it is better to start with simple methods. Sometimes you can limit yourself to them so that the water starts draining normally again.

This method involves using a solution of 2 tablespoons of baking soda and 1 dessert spoon of caustic soda.

These two components are diluted in a glass of hot water.

At the same time, do not neglect your own health. It is recommended to work carefully, using gloves and a respirator or mask.

The resulting solution is poured into the drain hole and left for two hours.

Then pour in plenty of hot water. A very important point: you cannot use caustic soda in dry form.

It is necessary to dissolve it completely in water, otherwise it will not solve the problem with the blockage, but will only worsen the situation.
