A few weeks ago our shower started to occasionally drain slowly. As it got worse, I thought I’d have to get out the snake or call a plumber. Then the other day I thought ‘why not just try the plunger?’
30 seconds of plunging, and I suddenly felt the blockage break loose, and the 8cm of standing water drained immediately.
Gotta love simple fixes that work.


What about a slow draining toilet? Plunging gets it for a bit, but then it slows the fuck down again.

Need to watch out for bellies in your runs to septic/sewer… that can slow down a lot of things too, especially if you don’t run a lot of water down it once or twice a week.
