Every time that a toilet can clog, it will clog, according to Murphy's Law. Usually, when a toilet clogs, you grab the nearest plunger and get to work. What happens when you can't do that? You may have just moved. Possibly, your friend doesn't have a plunger at home. What if your dog ate your plunger? Who knows!No matter why you don't have a plunger, it doesn't matter. I think what matters most is what you're going to do next.https://canduplumbing.com/chatsworth-ca/plumbing'll need to unclog the toilet even without your plunger. It's not as difficult (or gross) as you think! Many clogs can be cleared without using a plunger, which is surprising given how tough clogs can be. Try these first:The greatest hot waterPut a bucket of hot water in the middle of the room. It's important to remember that you want hot, but NOT boiling water. A hot toilet bowl might crack if it is filled with boiling water. Put a bucket filled with your hotter tap water in place of the water heater. Put that water in the toilet bowl until it's nearly full and let it sit.Solid waste should be broken down enough by the heat to be flushed away. You don't need to panic if this doesn't work; move on to the next method. It's just a matter of starting with the hot water trick.The second item is dish soapPour a bunch of dish soap into the toilet bowl. Give it about fifteen minutes. Soap helps break down solids. Moreover, it will lubricate the bowl and pipes themselves, making it easier for the clog to slide down. Retry the hot water trick after using the dish soap. In a bowl, pour a pot of hot (not boiling!) water. Let it sit again for around thirty minutes.Try flushing again after giving the water and soap time to unclog. Try repeating this process if that does not resolve the problem. Even all night would be better. If you want to try it, you could let the dish soap sit for a while.Epsom salts (#3)If you happen to have Epsom salt on hand, you're in luck. Epsom salt causes a chemical reaction that makes the water fizz and bubble when added to water. The fizzing and bubbling can actually remove clogs.In the toilet bowl, add several tablespoons of Epsom salt. Allow 15 minutes for it to sit, then flush. After your first flush, positive results should be visible. Combining this technique with the dish soap and hot water trick would be very effective.<img width="381" src="https://canduplumbing.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/06/candu-plumbing-rooter-van-min-1024x410.png">The wire hanger #4This is the most direct method of clearing a clog. Once you've tried heat and chemical reactions without success, you need to reach into the water. Put an unfolded wire hanger into the toilet bowl and wiggle it around.We recommend wearing gloves here since we don't know what the clog entails. As you work, take care not to damage the toilet bowl.
