An interesting fact, when you are forced to sit at home, your hands begin to itch from idleness and your stomach grows from overeating. We will now deal with the first fact. To get rid of the itching, I decided to clean the thickets of hair, in the drain siphon, the bathroom.

Dreary way

In order to clean the drain in the bathroom, it is necessary to prepare a rag, to collect moisture, it is advisable to wear gloves so as not to impregnate the skin with unpleasant sewage odors.

We lie down on our stomach, reach for the first cap plastic nut and begin to rotate it counterclockwise, unscrew it.

Having unscrewed the connection, we drain the liquid from the water seal, raise the siphon towards the flexible corrugation. After that, unscrew the second nut.

Dirt and hair can build up in this lump. We shake it out in the trash can. IN NO EVENT DO WE PUT INTO THE UNIT... YOU HEAR!!! The fact is that the garbage stuck with you should not fall into the general sewer. There is a possibility of blockage in the common sewer riser. Which will lead to flooding of the first floors.

Important

When you unscrew the non-PRO connection... put on the rubber bands, sealing. They can be accidentally thrown away with hair and debris.

You did not see dirt and debris in the siphon in the photos above, this is not because my wife has a short haircut or I live alone, but because I already cleaned the drain without disassembling it, in this cool way:

Tricky way-graber

I bought an interesting thing in an online store, it's called a graber. It can be inserted into a siphon and caught with it, using the jaws HAIRubiquitous.

I uploaded the photo to the gallery, enjoy it.

The action plan is as follows:

  • I put the tip of the device into the siphon.
  • In the place of the expected accumulation of hair, I open my jaws.
  • I rest against something with a cable and close my jaw.
  • I loosen the spring, pull it out.

I got the following result:

As the opening of the siphon showed, in the first way, "dreary", there was no debris in it at all. Graber deleted everything.

This spring with jaws costs mere pennies on the Aliexpress website, but you can see the actual price for yourself right now - here
