Checklist For Pipe Cleaning Devices
- The good old red plunger with the plain wooden handle is many a time a savior in need. But when it comes to a serious blockage of the pipes, it is usually no longer enough. Other devices are needed to get to grips with dirt, hair and the like using spirals or compressed air.
- Sometimes mechanical, sometimes electrical – the range is very broad.
- Some systems are only suitable for lighter pipe blockages or regular cleaning, others can eliminate even stubborn and deep-seated problems.
- For the moredifficult cases, we recommend you to use a pipe cleaning device with a spiral. With mechanical devices you have to turn the crank yourself so that the spiral eats through the dirt, with the much more powerful electric pipe cleaning machines a motor takes over this task.
- Sometimes the blockage is located in close proximity to the drain.
- It is usually very easy to remove even without equipment. However, sometimes it is a deep-seated accumulation of debris that no longer allows water to pass through. This can be somewhere along the line between the drain and the house connection.
- To reach even the most remote corners of the clogged pipe, you need the longest possible spiral. Some devices offer you just 1 or 2 meters, others 10 meters. If you dig a little deeper into your pocket, you can even get pipe cleaners with a spiral that is over 20 meters long. Even if these devices are a bit more expensive – they are usually still cheaper than hiring a plumber.
- The diameter of the offered spirals can vary greatly. From about 5 mm to almost 20 mm, everything is feasible.
- Thicker spir als have more power and efficiency, but unfortunately they are not suitable for all drains. Therefore, make sure that the spiral is also suitable for your drain. Most manufacturers provide detailed specifications here.
- Ideal are pipe cleaning devices, where you can change the spiral. With the right spiral, the sink, bathtub, shower and toilet are quickly freed from the annoying blockage.
- Attention: Some manufacturers do not indicate the diameter in millimeters, but in inches! 1 inch (also: inch) corresponds to 2.54 cm.

- ★ [Toilet Plunger with High Pressure Plunger] ------ The plunger diameter of the toilet plunger is 5.5cm, which can form a higher pressure during pumping or pressing. The sealing ring on the piston makes the sealing effect better to avoid air leakage.
- ★ [Pipe/Toilet Friendly Sink Plunger] ----- The elastic rubber suction cup has smooth edges and will not harm the toilet and the sink when forming a seal with the toilet wall or the sink. Traditional toilet plugs need to poke hard, and sometimes pierce the pipe. Our toilet plunger uses the principle of vacuum, simple operation and also protects the pipeline.
- ★ [2 Suction Cups & Widely Used] ----- Toilet plunger has different sizes suckers to meet the needs of different sizes of pipes. The large sucker has a diameter of 15cm, which is suitable for bathroom floor drains, and the toilet with a hole of less than 15cm, otherwise it is not easy to seal. The small sucker has a diameter of 6.4cm, which is suitable for wash basins, baths and kitchen sinks.
- ★ [Easy-to-Use Toilet Plunger] ----- Different suction cups are selected according to different sink diameters, and they can be used after proper installation. Align the suction cups with the holes, after sealing, the clog can be removed by pumping or pushing the piston. Vacuumize the air inside the clogged pipes to produce a strong air pressure difference.
- ★ [Vacuum Pressure Difference Principle to Reduce Pollution] ----- The pressure difference form thrust and suction. If the blockage is not serious, there is no need to use dredging fluid for dredging. The dredging fluid is likely to pollute the water. If the blockage is severe, we recommend that you use it with dredge fluid. In addition, even if there is no blockage, we recommend that you regularly clean the pipeline with a toilet plunger to avoid blockage after the pollutants are deposited.

The spiral is inserted either through the pipe or the drain until the blockage is reached. The spiral must then be cranked until the clog is cleared.
Depending on the design and length, pipe cleaning spirals can cost between 10 and 50 euros.
