Simply place a few acetylsalicylic acid tablets on the drain grate and pour a glass of nine percent vinegar over them.

After about a quarter of an hour, clear the pipe with a plunger and pour a couple of liters of water that has just been brought to a boil into the drain hole.

As a result, the blockage will most likely disappear. If this result is not achieved, then repeat all the above procedures.

Even if the blockage is very strong, it will still be possible to clear it. If not the first time, then the second or third time. As a result, effort, time and money will be saved.
