We've all had this experience. You precisely have to go but man has just made your toilet nonfunctional. You've tried to plunging it until your hands and wrist started to ache but no amount of effort seems to get things flowing again. You've notion of calling a plumber but they're high-priced at even the normal labor rate. So what can you do besides getting your body tired by chronic what you are doing?
Most people don't know how to plunge a toilet properly to begin with. They push and push until the wax seal breaks out and then they have someone else problem to allege with. Also, they've bought the wrong toilet plunger. The most sufficient plunger to buy is the one that has a flap that folds out so the rubber end looks like a bell. Stay away from the one that looks like a saucer. To properly plunge your toilet first make sure the flap on the plunger is extended out. Then place the end into the hole. Moderately push the plunger down into the hole until the air in the plunger is expelled. This creates a vacuum in the plunger. Make sure the outside rim of the plunger is fully seated over the hole on the bottom of the bowl. Then with a quick jerking petition pull the plunger so that the vacuum created lifts the water out of the hole and releases the obstruction. You may have to do this some times before you are successful.
Toilets
After many attempts using this method without success I discovered someone else way.
Hot water! My bathtub is next to the toilet, so I filled a large pot with hot water and poured it into the bowl to soften the obstruction and within eight or nine potfuls I was successful. As soon as I saw that the water level was going down quicker I used the plunger once again and then tried to flush and it worked!
Next time this happens you should try these methods. You'll save your muscles and your pocketbook!
