The steam from the shower acts as a decongestant which helps clear your sinuses out. Taking a hot shower is often recommended by the doctor when your sinuses or airways become clogged.

Why is there standing water in my shower due to a clogged shower drain?

Standing water in your shower is likely due to a clogged shower drain. When hair, soap scum, and other debris accumulate in the drain, water is unable to flow through properly, causing it to back up and collect in the shower. Regular cleaning and maintenance of the drain can help prevent this issue.

What is the process of drain rodding and how can it help clear clogged pipes effectively?

Drain rodding is a method used to clear clogged pipes by inserting a flexible rod into the pipe to break up and remove blockages. The rod is pushed through the pipe until it reaches the clog, then it is twisted and pushed to break up the blockage. This process helps to effectively clear clogged pipes by physically removing the obstruction and allowing water to flow freely again.


What is wrong if the toilet in the basement got clogged up and when you plunged it water and other junk came up the shower drain and you heard a gurgling noise in the sink?

Sounds like the main pipe is clogged. That's the big drain pipe that all three (toilet, shower, sink) are hooked too. When you plunge the tiolet it pushes back up the shower and sink instead of going down the clogged main pipe. The main pipe might need to be roto-rootered out. You could try some super heavy duty, pour in drain cleaner first. It might work.

Why would your bathroom shower begin to flood everytime you use your upstairs shower or sink?

The shower drain and waste lines on up to the other fixtures located above need to be clear so that water will flow. Just downhill of the shower drain there is probably a blockage in the waste pipe. The blockage could cause slow draining. If it is completely blocked, the shower pan will not drain back out over time. You will need to run a plumbers snake down the line below the shower drain. If the toilet in the same room as the shower when flushed also shows water coming into the shower drain, it will be best to take up the toilet off the base and run a plumbers snake from that point. Warning for very slow draining lines or lines that do not drain, DO NOT use Drain cleaning chemicals. Good luck and you may wish to call rotorooter.
