I’ve got a clogged sink, and have been reading the labels on a bunch of different products lately. I’d always assumed that they were a strong acid of sorts, which would dissolve whatever sort of material was built up in the pipes. But I’ve noticed that a lot of these products specify that they’re non-corrosive, so I’m not sure what other sort of mechanism may be at play here.
What a strange thing to have a superiority complex over. “It is legal to install plumbing which can’t be mechanically cleaned.”
If you think a random piss-take shitpost is a “superiority complex” you most likely have an inferiority complex and shite plumbing mate 😂
as a non-plumber what are the benefits of a bottle vs P style trap?
No tools needed to clean it, you just unscrew that bit at the bottom, and also apparently you get a superiority complex according to some bloke on the internet lmao
with a p trap you don’t need to unscrew anything though, right?
it’s just snake it and be done?
Sorry just seen your reply.
Did you miss the bit where I said “no tools needed”
That was the important bit
You can also unscrew it though.
but why would I if I can just snake it?
unscrewing it I have to clean up everything afterwards. I also have to patch the ceiling or re-cover the access hole.
with a snake, I just snake it. it goes through the plumbing, and I’m done.
unless I’m missing something.
