Unclogging A Toilet

A hungry toilet is a daily basic right of all the toilet users around the world. But your toilet may sometimes get jammed and is no longer called restroom. It is called then clogged toilet. Every month, there are lots of people searching over internet writing- unclogging a toilet or how to unclog a toilet.

You may search too and that’s why you are reading it. Before going down of this page, please make yourself sure that you will be no longer a husband or father for half an hour. You have to act as a professional plumber to unclog your lavatory. NO HELP NEEDED! Yes it is true. As you are reading it, you will be able to clear the jammed ‘throat’ of your toilet like an experienced cleaner.

What is a clogged toilet?

Well, the question holds the answer in itself. When a toilet is jammed, more specifically, when the throat of a toilet get jammed either by toilet papers or stubborn poops, it cannot swallow the human soil through its larynx, so it pushes waste up or backward and creates poop jam. You have then noting but seeing. It will not follow your order, so, at last you have to call in a plumber, make the throat cleared, and pay the bill. If it happened once a year, you would have nothing but calling the plumber but it can happen anytime around the clock. It is not rotten food that you can throw them away with your hands. It is not hard waste that you can sweep them away by a groom. It is a kind of waste that consists of liquid and floating or half-floating hard objects. Urrgghh! Too nasty to describe!

Get yourself ready mentally

Working with stools is very detestable job even though it is your own discharge. No one likes it but you are here to DO this nasty job yourself…so, first of all, you need a mind setup! Sounds philosophical? Well, to me, this phrase is very important for every sphere of life. Without mindset, you cannot follow your heart. It is easy if you can make your mind understand that YOU need to do that job for your own needs. No matter how nasty the work is. In a few words, it is called mind setup. Try to do it before starting any GOOD work.

Get yourself ready physically

It is rather less important though, I just want to mention one thing. Some people are allergic to do nasty job. If this allergy is intense, or feel vomiting, you should leave it to other capable guy. For those (somewhat weak) people I would recommend to make them able from inside so that they could handle any bad situation.

Get your unclogging tools ready

Now the main part. It will not be a daunting job if you have sufficient unclogging tools. TOOLS? Floating some pictures of spades, knives, wrench, pliers in mind? No dude, you only need ONE from any kind of unclogging kit. And the second important thing is THE INSTRUCTIONS.

The mission possible: attack the clogging Headquarter
1. Put on gas musk (not actually. It could be a towel or thin cotton made cloth) around your face. (specially around nose)
2. Put on a pair of ranger gloves (not that. It is simple latex or rubber made thin/thick hand gloves used for domestic activities)
3. Take the ammunition in your hand. (hahaha! It is your unclogging kit called plunger )
4. Take a deep breath and finally step toward the enemy (clogged toilet) Headquarter.
Wait wait wait!

Before going to attack, grab these instructions first!

01. Flash your toilet first. But remember, if you already have flashed, think twice before flushing for the second time. It is because your toilet may overflow which will make wet the surroundings of your toilet.
02. Use some (news) paper to cover the floor around your toilet. Despite not flushing twice, you must need to do it. Since you have to create pressure downward by a plunger through the throat or hole of your commode, the water may spatters around the toilet. And it contains you know germs and bacteria. You must do it for your own safety. After unclogging your toilet properly, you will also be able to clean the floor easily by removing those wet papers.
03. Turn the supply of water off of your toilet before starting to unclog the clogged toilet. While using with plunger, or flushing water, there is a little chance for the water to be over flown. Or you may turn the flush button on by chance. That is why you turn it off before unclogging. The knob looks like an ordinary tap or faucet and is supposed to be near or beneath the commode. Some people turn off the main water line before cleaning toilet but it will prevent everyone in the house from using water. You are advised not to do that. Just turn off the specific knob of your toilet.
04. Does your restroom have proper ventilation system? Yes it should have. Not for only unclogging, you know, it is generally important to ensure making the inside air out of toilet as well as your own bedroom. While you are cleaning your toilet, just open the window or turn on the ventilation properly. It will reduce the waste-odor and the bubbles of toxic cleaning chemicals which will be used by you while unclogging your toilet.

Apart from these instructions, there are several methods by which you have to clean the toilet. Depending situation and personal preference, you have to choose one among them. On the blog, every method will be described individually soon.

Oh, you will deserve big THANKS that should be given by your family members keeping a safe distance from you! (until you take good shower!)
