Is there anything you can use to clear the shower drain in a motor home?

full gospel shirley asked:


WE have been told we cant use anything in a motor home, as it ruins the pipes. Tho we were told using baking soda and vinegar would help and be ok. Tried it, and it helped only a little. Still hair in the drain, and cant get it to break lose. ANy ideas of something safe to use that will work to open this drain up? True advise only too, no jokers please. Dont want to do damage to the drains.

      OK there are many ways to fix this.

      1. hardware stores have these barbed 3 foot sticks that when pushed down a drain and pulled back they will grab all hair and other things on their way back up.

      2. 3-6 foot length of “speedometer cable” used as a snake on the end of a drill will go down a grating and rattle the garbage enough for you to flush it through.

      3. air blast plungers will push stopped up drains either to flow or apart depending of force used, START LOW.

      4. Boiling hot water will loosen some sludge and push it through.

      5. some caustics and mild acids will eat away at what ever is slowing a drain and maybe pass it to the end
