One method to clean a drainage block involves using a plunger to apply hydraulics and dislodge the blockage.
Based on the provided YouTube snippet, the core technique involves using the power of hydraulics, achieved by pumping a plunger vigorously. Here's a breakdown:
-
Preparation: Ensure you have a plunger suitable for the drain size and shape.
-
Positioning: Place the plunger over the drain opening, creating a tight seal.
-
Pumping: Begin pumping the plunger vigorously, maintaining the seal. The aim is to create a pressure difference (hydraulics) that forces water and air through the blockage. Don't give up easily; persistence is key.
-
Monitoring: After a period of pumping, check if the water starts to drain. If it does, continue pumping to fully clear the obstruction.
This method is generally effective for simple blockages caused by debris. If the blockage persists, more aggressive methods or professional help might be required.
