Heat up a pot of water(i use a brining pot) to a simmer, pour it down any drain and that clog is gone.

You don’t need to boil anything and the exact temperature does not matter.

fill a big pot with tap water, heat it up to a near simmer, dump it directly down the drain.

That’ll give the clog a good punch and the weight of the next gallon or two you heated up will get rid of the rest of it.

    Handy too if your water is turned off and you have a few gallons set aside then you can use this technique to flush. Works best out of a pitcher or something with a wide mouth so all the water comes out in one shot. If just using to flush, the water doesn’t have to be hot.
