This Isn’t a Shower Tool…But Watch This! #tools #diy #plumbing

What happens here

After removing the drain cover, the video shows a significant amount of hair and grime clinging to its underside. This material, often combined with soap scum, is a primary culprit for slow shower drains. For a toilet, while there isn't a removable cover, one would visually inspect the bowl and immediate trap entrance for any obvious items causing a blockage. The presenter uses a wipe to clean the debris from the shower drain cover.

Goal: Once removed, inspect the underside of the drain cover for accumulated hair, soap scum, and other debris, which are common causes of drain blockages. Clean off any visible material.

Tools and materials

  • Protective Gloves
  • Wipe/Cloth Any standard wipe
