I'm coming round to the idea of being forced to get one. Yet another bit of kit I'll have to store somewhere.Got one so easy to use and thay shift every thing![]()
What bothers me at the mo is that there seems to be some sort of large obstruction in the drain that I cannot break up. I can get past it, just about. It is all very sticky and sludgy so there is another litre of drain cleaner in there at the mo.
At one point the water I had put in did seem to drain away, then it stopped and stayed there again.
So annoying. If all of this was going on closer to hand than 5 feet or so down a drainpipe Id be a lot more convinced that I could clear it. But as it is I think I am going to have to manufacture some sort of tools to break stuff up and fetch them out. Not easy.
I have worked on our drains in the UK more than once and there they run, as usual, a couple of feet under the surface and nearly horizontal. Never had to work with a drain that runs vertical for 2 metres or so.
