Clogged floor drain
Basement, garage and laundry-room floor drains catch grit, lint and hair. A wide mouth covers the whole opening, so your push goes down instead of out.
What is the floor drain doing?
Water pools and won't go down
Lift the grate and scoop out the debris you can see. A wide mouth covers a floor drain better than a narrow nose.
Water comes back up through it
Water rising from a floor drain can mean a blockage in the main line, past the reach of a hand plunger. Try one round with a wide mouth, and if nothing changes, stop running water in the house and call a plumber.
Step by step
Lift the grate
Pull the cover and scoop out the debris you can see.
Add water
Pour water in until it pools about an inch deep around the opening.
Seat the mouth
Center the plunger over the drain and press it flat to push out the air.
Plunge
Work 10 to 15 steady strokes without lifting the mouth.
Flush it through
Pour a bucket of clean water down to carry the loosened debris away.
When not to plunge
- Sewage or dirty water is coming up through the drain
- The drain backs up whenever a toilet flushes or the washer empties
- A sewer smell hangs on after the water clears
