What are the tools for unblocking sewer pipes?

The main tools for clearing sewer pipes include water channel dredging agent, hand-cranked spiral wire, soda ash and vinegar.

1. Water channel dredging agent

Water channel dredging agent is a relatively common dredging tool on the market. It is generally suitable for blockages caused by hair, paper, greasy substances, etc. in water pipes. The water channel dredging agent will not damage the electroplating layer of the sewer pipes when used.

2. Hand-cranked spiral steel wire

The hand-cranked spiral steel wire is very convenient to use. For the blockage of bathroom sewer pipes caused by hair, you only need to remove the hand-cranked spiral steel wire from the outside of the pipe. Push it downward while shaking until there is foreign matter, then pull it out while shaking again, so that hair and other debris will be screwed on the spiral steel wire, and the problem of unblocking the sewer pipe will be solved.

3. Soda ash and vinegar

If there is a blockage caused by oil stains, you can use soda water to clear it. Soda ash is only suitable for use when the blockage is relatively minor. If the sewer pipe is seriously blocked, this method is not feasible.

Methods to clear sewer pipes

First of all, we must find out the main reason for the blockage, rather than blindly clearing it, because only by identifying the cause can we adopt correct and effective clearing methods.

Then choose the correct unblocking method according to the degree of blockage. If it is a general blockage caused by debris, you can solve it yourself with simple tools. If it is a serious blockage, you need to ask professional unblocking personnel to deal with it. .
