Determine the location of the blockage
The drain pipe could be clogged not only in the toilet, but also in the kitchen or in the bathroom. Since the system is general, the first step is to determine where a foreign object is stuck or a layer of salts and waste has formed. Turn on the water in the sink in the kitchen, in the bathroom and watch how the water goes down the drain. If there are no problems there, then the trouble still happened to the toilet, so in no case do not drain the water from the tank.
Often, residents of the house send completely unintended items to the toilet: thick paper, toilet paper rolls, rags, bags and other garbage.
How to clean the toilet yourself
To begin with, with a ladle or a rubber pear, you need to scoop out excess water from the toilet. If a foreign object has passed close to the knee, then it can be removed manually by wearing a rubber glove or a wire bent by a hook. For simple cases, a traditional plunger will do just fine.
Chemical methods for removing clogs in the toilet
You can also clean the toilet with household chemicals and folk methods:
- soda and vinegar. To break up the blockage, pour half a pack of baking soda into the toilet and pour in a glass of table vinegar. The chemical reaction will help to corrode the cork of fat and salt in about 20-25 minutes.
- After this period of time, pour a kettle of boiling water into it, only if the connecting corrugation is made of durable plastic or metal.
- alkaline toilet cleaners. Domestic "Mole", imported "Domestos" or any other product from the shelf of a household chemicals store. But before embarking on such aggressive measures, it is worth making sure that the pipes and connections are reliable. Otherwise, along with the accumulated dirt, a fragment of the old tube may disappear.
Plumbing solution
A plumbing cable is already a professional approach to solving a blockage situation. It is a cable with a handle and a nozzle at both ends. For greater efficiency, carry out the procedure with a partner, so it will be easier to control the actions.
You need to act as follows:
- Lower the cable nozzle into the toilet bowl until it stops. You need to reach the goal - to get into the water seal. To do this, gradually turn the cable handle clockwise.
- Try to get as close as possible to the plug of the blockage in the knee of the toilet.
- Operate with forward percussive movements. Thus, the debris will begin to split and float to the surface. If this does not happen, then manually help the contamination to come out. Put on a rubber glove and remove the obstruction.
It is very important to clean the cable from the consequences after the work done. To do this, take any rag, soak it in whiteness or any other disinfectant and wipe the cable along its entire length.
It may not be useful to you in the near future, but it is better if it is kept clean. For the future, instruct all residents of the apartment how to handle the toilet, do not allow small children to plumbing without adult supervision, and send all large garbage to the basket.
Removing the item
To gain access to the inside of the washing machine, first of all, you need to open the lower area of \u200b\u200bthe structure where the TEN is located. In some models, the heating element is located in the rear area of the machine.
To do this, you need to unscrew the bolts on the back wall, and carefully remove the panel. However, before carrying out all the manipulations, you need to disconnect the device from the mains.
Then you need to very carefully remove the TEN, having previously unscrewed the nuts.This must be done so that in the process of searching for a foreign object, the user does not accidentally violate the integrity of the heating element. Having gained access to the hole, you can easily get the bone from the bra from the washing machine.
