I figure a couple of uses will amortize its cost. <br /><br />Otherwise I might buy a new Harbor Freight or equivalent outright, for the same reason. Saving a couple hundred dollar plumber call would be good.Matthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13329365486364249781noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5837660608809488753.post-31780864332378386302022-06-04T16:04:35.831-04:002022-06-04T16:04:35.831-04:00You might try a product called a TubShroom.

We typically take showers so the drain plug is rarely used.<br />amazon.com/s?k=TubShroom&crid=1QUT3KH0GE4LS&sprefix=tubshroom%2Caps%2C351&ref=nb_sb_noss_1Bob Wnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5837660608809488753.post-77535373903325468702022-06-01T09:12:24.800-04:002022-06-01T09:12:24.800-04:00Ugh, sorry you had to deal with this, RX.

That was not cheap but at least now I have a "cleanout" on that line that never existed before.<br /><br />I've become a LOT more careful about periodically using the barbed "grabber" I have in the shower drain.fillyjonkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13016436113169230368noreply@blogger.com
