Stop Hair From Clogging Your Tub Drain! #plumbing #hacks #Tubshroom #clogs #postpartumhairloss

What happens here

To remove a common pop-up style drain stopper, first ensure it is in the closed (down) position. Then, firmly grip the stopper (usually by the top knob or cap) and turn it counter-clockwise. Continue turning until the stopper begins to loosen and disengages from the drain assembly, allowing you to pull it straight up and out of the drain opening, clearing the way for the new drain protector.

Goal: Clear the drain opening for TubShroom installation.

What they say

Hide

No special installation required. You might need a pair of channel locks and a flathead screwdriver for this particular one. I do not. We're actually just put it in the closed position and you just turn counterclockwise and you pull it out. Quick install just slides right in. From a plumbing perspective, this tub shroom makes perfect sense to me.
