    My drain was completely clogged. I tried professional Draino but it didn’t work. The baking soda and vinegar worked! Thank you, thank you,

    Also helps if you dry the inside of the drainer so soda doesn’t stick as easy fyi!

    I sure hope this works! Last time I tried the baking soda vinegar thing to unclog my drain, my dumbass never push the baking soda into the drain like actually inside of it (common sense I know NOW lol) so it just sat there and once I poured the vinegar in it did absolutely nothing so I'm hoping that that little tip works! Can't wait to find out I'm pushing in as we speak LOL

      I love this process. The first time I used it it didn’t work. Keep in mind this was first application. So I did it again and it was done. When I do use this once a month I have no problem with the drains or toilet. Good call 👍👍👍👍

      Good call. I'm thinking of revising this video and using, or suggesting, LESS baking soda, 1/4 cup, and more vinegar, 1 cup and maybe a half. I'm also not sure it has to be "boiling" water. Might be better to use less vinegar with metal pipes. I learn more as I go and pass it on.

    What if you have standing water? my drain in my kitchen has water coming backing up from an upstairs drain.. so, dumping dry soda into the water.. and vinegar.. I guess would dilute?

      Try unclogging your drain again.
      Before you do, UA-cam, Pan The Organizer.
      I do not know this person. However I wanted to know about unclogging a drain. So I UA-cam it, and his video came up.
      I hope it help.

      Sometime after vinager and baking soda sits you have to pour boiling hot water like 2 teapots full down drain.Search exact directions on your search engine.

      @ChozoSR388 2 роки тому

      For the love of Mike, don't use lemon juice in your coffee pot. Use straight up citric acid, if you're gonna do that; lemon juice has sugars and other compounds that can burn onto the heating element, potentially causing bitterness over time, with continued use.

      I tried this for sewer smell and it did not work. Turns out the U-trap had dried out. I used bleach once a week to clean it out but it took about 3 weeks to smell better. Now, i make sure to put a cup of water so it doesn't dry out again.

    • @carolfeher1695
      @carolfeher1695 3 роки тому +2

      I used a cup of regular bleach with a cup of water once a week and put it in the floor drain. I put the bleach mixture in at night before bed so it would have time to work. Although it got a little better the first time, it wasn't until the 3rd application that the smell was unnoticeable. My pipes are plastic (what I can see) and haven't had any issues since. Hope this helps, living with (or tying to sleep) with sewer smell wafting through the home isn't pleasant.

      @desu474 3 роки тому +15

      Water has a boiling point of 100° C, plastic has an average of 170° C you'ld need a liquid with a melting point higher than water's to melt the pipes.
