Ladies and gentlemen, we have a winner!
Googled "kitchen sink clog" and found the plunger suggestion. It grossed out the Mrs. (yeah, it's been "there"). But it worked.
We have a disposal on the dishwasher, but not in the sinks. But I think it runs to the same drain (best I can tell).
And Hair, clogs wouldn't make it to the intersection. We're on a septic system.
(and yes, we had it pumped last spring)
Do I get plumber's pay for that? :)
Glad yer sink is fixed! WOO HOO! just as a Science experiment, you should still look in the trap sometime...
I meant the next intersection of your pipes ;~D
Sink disposals on septic systems are just not a good idea, unfortunately. Or so I understand.
Send me yer bill.
I'm just sayin' is all.
You know, I've said this before. I know my handyman limitations.
I can do the basics, including some basic wiring. But I don't ~do~ plumbing. I fixed a leaky toilet...once.
First one's on the house.
nope... don't like to emit anythin' that'll give away muh position... iron sights fer anythin' under 300 meters, thank you very much... scopes fer low light or reachin' out and touchin' someone... er... I mean, deer... that's right, deer...
gotta snake?...
Plumber I talked to once said he found a dead mouse in a trap once. Said it looked like it had been in there for ~years~
That's what we've been told too. Although we've gotten some different opinions. We still scrape the stuff that goes into the dishwasher, the disposal there just gets the "extra" crud.
I hate those dang flapper thingies!
If you've had grease go down the drain recently to cause the clog, you should probably let the hot water run ahwile. This'll soften the stuff, then use several doses of dish soap, while still running the water, to emulsify anything left and flush it down.
No, but I think I'm gonna get me one.
Eventually we all turn into our parents. It is inevitable.
I am at peace with it.
:-)
I'm turning into my parents, grandparents, and an aunt all in one.
Please tell me the day you wash a load of just your black socks.
Fair enough.
G'nite HH
actually, muh Landmarks have adjustable eyepieces that allow use with eyewear...
