HAND HELD DRAIN CLEANING AUGER

Posted by Ray Douglas on March 20th, 2020

 The operator turns a crank (some models accompany an electrical drill attachment option) to rapidly rotate the cable because it moves through the clogged pipe. The ¼ inch cable found on most hand-held drain augers should never be utilized in a drain over two inches in diameter. they're usually ineffective in completely clearing the blockage in larger pipes and may easily become tangled within the pipe making removal very difficult.Cable style drain cleaner augers aren't recommended to be used though the bowl of flush toilets. The wire can scar the porcelain finish. Also, as mentioned above, toilets have large diameter drain pipes allowing the tiny diameter auger cable to become tangled and bound up inside the rest room .

Note: Use caution when using powered tools in your home’s plumbing. Misuse may result in expensive damage to your plumbing and injury to your person. If you've got any concerns about their use, always call a licensed plumber to properly diagnose the difficulty and perform a top quality drain cleaning.
