foam and conditioners. More surprisingly, the salts contained in shower gels and soaps contribute to these obstructions, especially when combined with hard water and deposited in old and damaged pipes.
The role of Aspirin in the Cleaning of Canalization
Aspirin, well known for its medicinal properties, also proves to be an effective tool for opening pipes. According to the iRecept site, Aspirin helps to decompose soap deposits and other stubborn residues. Just crush a few Aspirin tablets and dissolve them in hot water. By pouring this solution into the pipes and waiting for a moment, the round is played.
Alternative Soude and Vinegar Bicarbonate
Another method is to use a combination of sodium bicarbonate and vinegar to clean the obstructed pipes. By pouring two tablespoons full of sodium bicarbonate, then half a cup of vinegar into the drain, an effervescent reaction occurs, capable of decomposing all impurities and releasing the obstructed pipes. After 30 minutes, it is enough to rinse it with two litres of boiling water and the problem is solved. For a more efficient solution, you can add two more tablespoons of sodium bicarbonate before adding the vinegar, as recommended by Kutna Hora reader Iva N.
