Next, we show you the steps to follow to use the hose and unclog it:
Start by cutting the top off an empty plastic bottle. This will create a funnel that will allow you to safely connect the hose to the toilet.
Next, cut the end of the hose pipe at an angle. This will make it easier to insert the hose into the toilet and help direct the flow of water toward the clog.
Insert the end of the hose into the toilet drain. Make sure you push it as close to the clog as possible for best results.
Seals the connection between the hose and the plastic bottle. You can use tape or a plastic sealant to ensure that no water leaks during the process.
Tips to unclog the toilet
Now that you’ve prepared the hose to unclog the toilet, here are some additional tips and customization possibilities to improve results:
Use baking soda: Baking soda is a great cleaner for clogged toilets. Sprinkle a generous amount of baking soda into the toilet before beginning the unclogging process. This will help break down blockages and eliminate unpleasant odors.
Add vinegar: After inserting the hose into the toilet, pour some vinegar into the funnel of the plastic bottle. The vinegar will react with the baking soda and create a fizz that will help break down clogs.
Let sit for 10-15 minutes: Once you’ve added the vinegar, let the mixture sit in the toilet for at least 10-15 minutes. This will allow the chemicals to work and break down the blockage more effectively.
Remember that this method is ideal for unclogging obstructions that are out of reach and for eliminating bad odors. However, if the problem persists or the blockage is severe, it is advisable to call a professional plumber to prevent further damage to the plumbing system.
