      Calcium from hard water sticks like cement to the walls of the pipe

    Most drain clogs aren’t from a stuck piece of bread, they’re grease and food debris sticking firmly to the walls of the pipe. This won’t work.

      ⁠Which enzymes in particular? I know of enzymes for health purposes (Serrapeptase, Lumbrokinase, Nattokinase) for cancer, blocked arteries, inflammation, sinusitis and the list goes on. But they are quite expensive 😞

      @@califuturist Enzyme used in septic tanks sit in the tanks for a long time and do their work. I doubt that they would work in pipes. You're always using the drain pipes and the enzymes would just get washed away. I'm not a plumber, just my opinion.

    I own a sewer business and I can 100% say this is not going to work for a standard 4inch drain where I’m from. Not even a 3 inch drain. Maybe a 1/2 drain if there is no ventilation and one solid run to the mainline. But that’s about all

    The joints with the rubber sealings will pop-out and then you are in a big trouble!

      Also, there are vents going to the roof, it's not a closed system - this is why plungers and pressure based solutions generally don't work if the clog is past the fixture.

    1:58 would small air compressor with handle held trigger (like used to fill tire) allow for bursts of air pressure in series of bursts that might overcome venting that might exists (and often unknown by homeowner)? It should still work with vents in between, but not likely with bile pump. I have done with vacuum cleaner blowing in series of pressurizing…however, I think compressor far more effective. I will make fitting and try next time. Make sure you have helpers or quick feet to check toilets and sinks and showers cuz you might be overflowing somewhere if NOT pushing the blockage out!!!

    0:45 bread is the plumber trick when trying to solder copper pipes with slow water leak making soldering impossible. Bread just dissolves once connected & water flowing. It is probably illegal to introduce something into potable water supply, but harmlessly does job in a pinch …white bread…no crust ;-)

    Only works on completely enclosed pipe. If you have multiple sinks, toilets baths etc (like most hosue), pumping air will simply flush water out on another place inside the house

    I shoved a 30 foot long (1.5 inch) pvc pipe up the end of my long sink drain pipe. Thankfully, the clog was close to the end and when it let go, water poured out the end just like a river!

    If there was a complete one piece clog that moves together, sure, but as soon as the clog allows air to blow by it, it does nothing. You need a tremendous amount of air, or better, water, moving all at once. Water bladder does the same thing conceptually, with way more pressure and continuous volume of movement.

    Water cannot be compressed. This technique might work possibly in some cases but not all. There are risks that we have to take to considerstion when the actual work is done on site. I would much prefer using an unclogging drain rod.

    Use a drain cleaning bladder. It'll seal when you turn on the water. Has a water jet in the front. Should give you water pressure in the drain.
    I use a water jetter hose connected to my pressure washer. 👈👍
