What is the best way to clear a clogged condensate drain in a central air conditioner?

One of the best ways to clear a clogged condensate drain in a central air conditioner is to use a wet/dry vacuum. Attach the vacuum to the drain line and create a seal, then turn on the vacuum to suck out any debris causing the clog. Another method is to use a wire brush or a long, flexible brush to physically remove the clog by pushing it through the drain line. In some cases, using a mixture of hot water and vinegar can help dissolve the clog and clear the drain.

Why does water go down the drain one way?

Contrary to popular belief, it has nothing to do with the latitude or the Coriolis effect. Toilets and sinks drain in the directions they do because of the way water is directed into them or pulled from them. The Coriolis effect is the reason why hurricanes rotate clockwise in the southern hemisphere, and counterclockwise in the northern hemisphere. But you need a very large amount of moving air and water for it to take effect.

What should one do if the drain pipe is all clogged up?

If a drain is suspected of being clogged with hair, if there is any Nair around, it can be poured down the drain. Let it sit for about a half hour, and then flush with hot water, to remove the clog. If it is suspected that there is a grease buildup in the drain, a few cups of dawn (grease cutting) will do the trick. Pour it in the drain, let it sit for a few hours, then flush with hot water.


What does it mean if your toliet is clogged and water is coming up through the tub and shower drain?

It means that your main drain line is clogged downstream from where your drain from your tub ties into your toilet drain and the problem can be a hundred of different reasons. The first thing I would check is your clean out (if you have/find one) outside of your home usually within 2 to 5 feet from your outside wall. If you do find the clean out then take off the clean cover and see if your clean out pipe is full of sewage ( becareful of taking off clean out cover because it might have a lot of pressure behind it if clogged) If you can not find a clean out then if possible wait till the tub drains and then use a shop vac to vacuum out the toilet and then pull the toilet and snake down the toilet drain or if you find a clean out then snake down the clean out. When you run a snake down the clean out or toilet drain if possible run water down it too while you snake the drain line. Most drain lines do not plug up if they are plumbed in right which means have the right grade and have the right fittings so back to your question this could be possible that you have a problem in your drain line and I would (after you clear the line) check it with a camera other wise you might have to snake out your drain line often.

What causes a backup in sewer line?

Any thing from hair to toys to roots or anything you jam down your toilet or drain pipe that wont decompose. I have snaked out a lot of sewer lines and I have to say that the number one reason for a clogged drain line is the pipe is not graded correctly or is back graded from settling. My 2nd most reason is tree roots or damaged pipe. If your home has plastic pipe like DWV ABS or PVC and it all grades perfectly down hill without damaged pipes the chances of having a clog are very very slim. Kitchen drain with disposals are the only drain lines I personally seen that have clogged with perfect grade with plastic drain pipes. Shower and tub drains mostly clog at the shower/tub strainer or trap and very rare clog after that if its plastic pipe and has slope.

Is it possible to install a tub drain above the concrete floor?

You would have to build a platform for the tub to sit on. About 3 inches if you are using a floor drain. There is a trap right after the floor drain so you would not need one at the tub. If possible you could position the tub directly over the floor drain but that would eliminate the floor drain which would be a problem if the basement every flooded.
