Yes I did. I thought I was supposed to pull the plunger out each “plunge” to prevent it from sucking the clog back up. Seeing as you have 40 years experience, I’m thinking it doesn’t matter if the clog is pushed or pulled (and pulling might not really even happen, I don’t know when/where I “learned” to use a plunger), because if the waste is graded properly and the clog dislodges/breaks up, it’ll go down nice n easy. Thank you

Back when I was a child, (some decades ago) everyone had those "standard" type plungers...the ones I _just_ learned (thanks to you and your vid) are actually supposed to be used for SINKS. I have been wondering why so far I have not been able to find those types of plungers so easily anymore, not at Walmart or my local Home Depot or Lowe's. All the ones I see tend to be variations of the _other_ two plungers you showed (for the toilet). Anytime I have to use that other "new" kind of toilet plunger, I get SO annoyed because it never seems to really work for me. Now I know it's because I've been using it completely wrong! I'm going to send this vid to my hubby and let him know. *THANK YOU SO MUCH* for making this! I also appreciate that this is a short video that gets right to the point. ⭐

I’m a pretty good plungerer myself… I find that a quick short plunging motion is best. And I mean as quick as you can. Seems to build up more pressure and you can hear things start to happen. Whenever I see someone plunging and they are going all the way up and all the way down, splashing doodoo water everywhere getting no where I put on my gloves and show them how it’s done. My toilet at home clogs every time you drop the kids off, even if you don’t flush any toilet paper. Getting my practice in. I’m not a plumber, but I’ve lived in some old houses with old toilets and pipes. And now I’m maintenance on a farm so all my hard work is finally paying off. Happy plungeing.
@Volkbrecht3 жыл бұрын
Correct. Because the plunger isn't actually meant to push through the clog. It breaks it up by repeatedly sucking and pushing water in and out of it, with the suck being the critical motion. Because whatever it is that is clogging up the drain, it got there by being pushed in that direction to start with, so just applying a little more force isn't likely to do the trick. I clicked on this out of curiosity, not knowing what magical secrets there may be about the process that aren't obvious. But honestly, everyone who has at least a high school education in physics should be able to work out how a plunger works, at the latest after the first live application. All it takes it to stop and think for a second about what you do.

This is a great channel. I just called my favorite plumber, and he showed me how to unclog a slow or plugged sink using a plunger. I was in shock. Furthermore, I used many chemicals, it didn't work. He said all those chemicals are good for preventing clogged pipes deep down behind your walls, but your sink pipes are filled with crud. A good plunger can easily break down and push the unwanted crud through, clearing the debris. He didn't charge me for the less than the five-minute work.

I use the Korky's Beehive. Key for that one is to fill it with water. Once you do that, one good "plunge" and the clog is usually gone. If you don't fill it with water, it will collapse into itself. It really needs to be "Hydrolocked" for lack of a better term. Air compresses, which is why it collapses. Water doesn't compress, so it needs to be filled with water to avoid collapses.

I think it's a fool's errand to hope that your round plunger will seal against the bottom of an oddly-shaped toilet bowl. For years, I have used the cheap plastic accordion-like plungers that Home Depot sells for about $4. They are made of rigid plastic and make no pretense of sealing against the toilet bowl. Instead, the accordion shape allows it to push a huge volume of water into the drain with each stroke, despite the poor seal. Works every time. Coming from a family of beavers, I have had plenty of opportunities to verify this.

Also, I find the accordion shaped ones to work best if you are using the "push through" method that he teaches here. Sometimes you will get better results with a rubber plunger with the "on the backstroke" method. There are plenty of times I've shown up to a clogged toilet (maintenance) and there is some poor guy is pushing with a plunger and swears that I'm gonna need an auger because he's been at it for like twenty minutes now, only for me to use the "backstroke" method and have it done in under 15 seconds. For those unaware, what I call the backstroke method starts out the same as the method shown in this video: you get as much water in your plunger as possible and start making a seal/pumping. Here is where it starts to differ. Instead of pushing the water into the clog and trying to force it down, you make sure that there is a sufficient amount of water in the bowl and make sure that you are instead building up some suction utilizing the water. You then make a small jerk backwards with said plunger. What this does is utilize hydrologic pressure to pull part or all of the clog back slightly, relieving some of the "pile up" in there and allowing the water from the bowl to do the rest, as it is no longer "wedged" down there. Each method I find works, and where one fails, the other will usually succeed. The method shown in this video is much easier to teach the masses though, as the feeling for the right amount of pressure is a small learning curve, and if the method is done wrong, you can pull too hard/much and end up splashing yourself and others with nasty toilet water. Hope this helps!
@-BuddyGuy3 жыл бұрын
A round plunger will seal you just have to shove it in further. You don't have to worry about it deforming because as you pulse it it will naturally come back to a flat diaphragm shape somewhere during the stroke so you'll get maximum effect.

My recently installed low-flow toilet clogged up this morning. Usually, my toilet plunger quickly unclogs it. This time, however, nothing happened, I tried dish soap and hot water; I tried using a wire hanger; and still nothing so I consulted KZbin. I saw your video about the different plungers. I thought the Korky Beehive Plunger was a gimmick and my "professional" toilet plunger was far superior. Since nothing was working, I drove down to Home Depot to buy an auger. I saw the Korky Beehive Plunger on the shelf and the product tag on the Korky Beehive Plunger stated that it was designed for the new low-flow toilets. On a whim, I decided to buy it and an auger. When I returned home, I first tried the Korky Beehive Plunger and to my surprise it quickly cleared the clog; no auger needed.

I'm so proud of myself for doing it right. I remember as a kid having the absolute worst clogs where the water keeps running because you're trying to flush it and if you managed to get it up to the brim there's no room for the displacement of the plunger and you either scoop out poopie water or it spills over.

my grandfather is a plumber and told me a story about a schooner sailboat and it's horrifying plumbing that he took out of the old vessel... he said it was clogged because of how much pipe they used for bypassing clogs and other stuff, he replaced it with a pump and a 45 degree t pipe fitting... it still holds up better than what they had... but my god the picture he took made it look like plumber's hell... if you took a look at it there were pipes going up, down, left, right, and heck even at uneven angles.... it was soo bad that it was not doing anything but clogging up the toilets... what makes it funnier is he didn't know how to work with this certain pump and yet he still installed it correctly...

Thank you very much! I never understood why my ultimate musclepower didn't make the plunger work its magic, now I know. You saved both me and my wife a massive headache today.

I actually was using the plunger wrong. Thank you Roger Wakefield for enlightening me
@skylarlong86543 жыл бұрын
don't forget (comming from a fellow plumber) you can also use a sort of pulling motion to do kid of the reverse of what you showed and you do it kind of slow but thats helped my many times to get those stoppages that pushing just won't get also if you do it over and over it can help get things like toys out👍👍
