Thus, hot water dissolves oils, fats and soap scum well, in other words, it effectively and quickly deals with common blockages.

All you have to do is boil water, pour it into the drain and wait.

The procedure may need to be repeated two or three times, depending on the degree of contamination.

If this method does not help, you can use white vinegar.

It is worth knowing that many blockages in bathroom sinks are a mixture of soap scum and hair.

And distilled vinegar, being acidic, dissolves soap scum very well.

It is recommended to pour 200 to 300 milliliters of pure distilled vinegar into the drain hole of a clogged sink.

We leave the whole thing like this for half an hour, after which we add boiling water.
