Blockages in pipes, if there is no desire to remove the siphon, are usually broken through with a plunger, or they are filled with Mole. If you don’t have any of the above, then you can literally get by with a plastic bottle. With its help, you can actually break through a drain in a few minutes.

Required tools:

  • plastic bottle 1.5-2 l;
  • scissors or knife.
