  • #2 most vile place in the house

    The kitchen sink drain system is #2.  The toilet flange (the thing that the toilet is bolted to) still being a solid #1.

    So, two days ago our kitchen sink clogged or at best was draining very slowly.  After saving the kitchen from an over flowing dishwasher and the like, we had to act.  We tried various things, none of which worked.  Draino, more draino, a pipe snake and even a motorized automatic pipe snake thingy.  Nothing worked!

    So, the 3rd trip to Home Depot was going to be the last one.  I’d read about this thing called Kleer Drain but was skeptical.  Simple concept: blow the clog out.  What?  Yes, using a CO2 cartridge you literally blast the clog with high pressure water/gas.  Well, we got one and enough chemicals to be put on a federal watch list too.

    First was the Kleer Drain device.

    Round 1: Fight!
    Blasted the clog with a jolt of compressed air/water.  Made a lot of noise.  Very cool to use.  Nothing doing though.

    Round 2: Fight!
    Blasted again with another large bang.  All the pipes shook at the force of the shot.  Nothing yet but I hear signs of something going on down below.

    Round 3: Fight!
    I didn’t relent after the second shot.  I immediately went to work and gave it another kick in the pants.  BOOM! This time, we hear it, wait for it… SLURPY DRAINING NOISES!

    VICTORY IS MINE! *crowd goes wild*

    So, bottom line? Kleer Drain RULES.  I guess it won’t work in every situation but dang if it didn’t work for us.

    Here is the website :)
