Everyone
knows how to unclog a toilet but how many people know how to unclog a sink? The kitchen
sink clogged from time to time. Whether it’s food waste, hair or something
else, pipes eventually get clogged, resulting in a clogged sink
These
clogs lead to dirt collecting in the kitchen sink and nasty smells in
the kitchen that won’t go away until the clog is fixed. In this
article, we’ll explain how to unclog a Double kitchen sink .
Unclogging
a double sink is very easy and all you need is 2 plungers. That’s right, next
time you’re at the super center just pick up another plunger.
How To Unclog A Double Kitchen Sink with Two Plungers
To
unclog it place one plunger on the side that has the food disposal, usually on
the left side. This side will just be for making a tight seal that is easy to
hold by yourself. You will not plunge this side. If you do not have a second
plunger, you can try to block the other side but it works a hundred times
easier if you do have a second plunger. Hold down the first plunger to make a
tight seal and then place enough water in that side of the sink to barely cover
the top of the plunger.
Now
using your other hand, or with someone helping you, plunge the other side while
maintaining the seal on the other plunger. You need to make sure that there is
enough water in both sides to cover the top of the plungers.
Plunge
it hard while maintaining the seal on the other side and within a few minutes
you should have a totally clog free sink.
Keys to Unclogging a Double Sink with Two Plungers:
1. Use
a plunger in each side of the sink.
2. One
side of the sink will be just to create a seal against the drain hole, not to
use as a plunger.
3. Place
pressure on the first plunger over the drain hole to seal it and make sure
water is covering the top of that plunger.
4. Place
water in the other side, enough to cover the top of the second plunger.
5. Place
second plunger over the drain hole and plunge that side of the sink while
holding the first plunger tight against the opposite drain.
6. If
you struggle with using two plungers at once, get someone to hold the other
plunger against the drain line for you.
