## How to Unclog a Clogged Sink If you're dealing with a clogged sink, don't despair. There are a few simple steps you can take to clear the clog and get your sink flowing freely again. ### Step 1: Remove the standing water. Before you can start unclogging the sink, you need to remove the standing water. Do this by using a cup or bowl to scoop out the water. You can also use a wet/dry vacuum to remove the water. ### Step 2: Identify the type of clog. Once you've removed the standing water, you need to identify the type of clog. There are two main types of clogs: soft clogs and hard clogs. * **Soft clogs** are caused by a buildup of hair, soap scum, and other soft materials. * **Hard clogs** are caused by a buildup of minerals, dirt, and other hard materials. ### Step 3: Choose the right unclogging method. Once you've identified the type of clog, you can choose the right unclogging method. * **For soft clogs**, you can use a drain snake or a chemical drain cleaner. * **For hard clogs**, you may need to use a plumber's snake or a hydro jet. ### Step 4: Unclog the sink. Once you've chosen the right unclogging method, you can start unclogging the sink. * **If you're using a drain snake**, insert the snake into the drain and turn the handle clockwise. The snake will break up the clog and allow the water to flow freely. * **If you're using a chemical drain cleaner**, follow the directions on the bottle. Be sure to wear gloves and eye protection when using a chemical drain cleaner. * **If you're using a plumber's snake**, insert the snake into the drain and turn the handle clockwise. The snake will break up the clog and allow the water to flow freely. * **If you're using a hydro jet**, insert the jet into the drain and turn on the water. The hydro jet will blast the clog away and allow the water to flow freely. ### Step 5: Prevent future clogs. Once you've unclogged the sink, you can take steps to prevent future clogs. * **Install a drain strainer.** A drain strainer will catch hair and other debris before it can enter the drain and cause a clog. * **Clean your drains regularly.** Pour a cup of baking soda down the drain followed by a cup of vinegar. Let the solution sit for 15 minutes, then flush the drain with hot water. * **Avoid pouring grease or oil down the drain.** Grease and oil can solidify and cause clogs. * **Don't flush non-biodegradable items down the drain.** Non-biodegradable items, such as diapers and wipes, can clog the drain and cause backups.
