Thebathroomis a room that requires an extra level of hygiene, especially around thetoilet.Plungersare one of the most essentialbathroom accessories. A plunger is especially important in a restroom that sees frequent use.
What Is a Plunger?
The plunger is a common household device that is used to release stoppages in plumbing. It can be used to accomplish this unclog a sink or bathtub as well (though we recommend having a separate plunger for that). A plunger consists of a rubber cap with an attached shaft made of either wood or plastic. There are two styles of toilet bowl plunger available on the market,thestandard cup and the flange.
How to Use a Plunger on a Clogged Sink, Tub or Shower
- Use a standard cup plunger
- Securely cover and seal the overflow drain with a wet rag or cloth
- Place it over the drain while completely covering the drain opening
- Push down on the plunger with quick, forceful thrusts. Repeat for 15 to 20 seconds
How to Use a Plunger on a Clogged Toilet
- Use a flange type plunger
- Drape a towel over and around the toilet bowl in order to catch any backsplash
- Place it in the bowl so that the drain opening is completely covered
- Push down on the plunger with quick, forceful thrusts. Repeat for 15 to 20 seconds
The best way for a toilet plunger to work effectively is if there is water in the pipe. Water does not compress and will, therefore, transmit more of the applied force than air. When a plunger doesn’t quite get the job done, achemical drain cleaner or a plumber’s snake will need to be implemented.
