Water doesn't 'turn' one way or the other when you flush due to location north or south of the equator. It has everything to do with the shape/size etc. of the bowl, and nothing to do with geographic location!

Which way does water go down the drain in north America?

In North America, water typically goes down the drain counterclockwise due to the Coriolis effect. However, the direction of water flow in a drain is more influenced by the shape of the basin and the way the water is introduced rather than the hemisphere it's in.


Which way does water go down a drain counter- or clokwise?

The direction water goes down a drain is influenced by various factors such as the shape of the drainage system and turbulence in the water. The Coriolis effect, which influences large-scale weather patterns, is not strong enough to determine the direction water flows down a drain. Thus, it is not accurate to say water will consistently flow in a specific direction based on this effect.


How does the water flow in a sink?

How do you use the Power Plunger effectively to unclog a drain?

To effectively use the Power Plunger to unclog a drain, follow these steps: Fill the sink or tub with enough water to cover the plunger's cup. Place the plunger over the drain and push down firmly to create a seal. Pump the plunger up and down vigorously for about 20-30 seconds. Repeat the process a few times if necessary.

Drains make noise when the water is going down because the water hits the drain as the water goes down. The water also is going down at a rapid pace, that makes the same sound as a waterfall. When the water is falling to the direct drain, the water beats on the drain.
