I’ve got a clogged sink, and have been reading the labels on a bunch of different products lately. I’d always assumed that they were a strong acid of sorts, which would dissolve whatever sort of material was built up in the pipes. But I’ve noticed that a lot of these products specify that they’re non-corrosive, so I’m not sure what other sort of mechanism may be at play here.
Get a drain snake; they work way better than any chemical solution.
*in that one country that inexplicably banned the installation of bottle traps
This will not work in modern plumbing
Can you elaborate?
Show a yank this picture and watch them start frothing at the mouth and shrieking about “muh code” 😂
Are you from the king’s land where you need separate taps for hot and cold water or the one where you stand on the pissing grates at the urinal?
What a strange thing to have a superiority complex over. “It is legal to install plumbing which can’t be mechanically cleaned.”
If you think a random piss-take shitpost is a “superiority complex” you most likely have an inferiority complex and shite plumbing mate 😂
as a non-plumber what are the benefits of a bottle vs P style trap?
No tools needed to clean it, you just unscrew that bit at the bottom, and also apparently you get a superiority complex according to some bloke on the internet lmao
with a p trap you don’t need to unscrew anything though, right?
it’s just snake it and be done?
Get therapy.
