This is a quick overview of how to remove, clean, and re-assemble your P trap (this is part of your drain under your sink). This may help in solving your slow draining issues, or you may be able to find your ring that accidently went down the drain.

  • Did it! It took longer to put it back together, I had trouble lining it up. But, finally got it. Thanks 😊

    @nancystevenson562@nancystevenson5625 ай бұрын

    • When you are putting it back together, be careful not to cross thread it. Don’t force it back together. Once you do this several times, it will get easier to put it back together.

    • That was my problem! I kept getting it crooked, it took a while to get one of them on straight. It helped to loosen the one I got put together first. Then get them both started before actually tightening. Shew!

  • The cold side supply line at the bottom right of the video looked like it was leaking a small bead of water. Maybe it was a drip from putting the trap back, but wanted to point it out just in case.

  • Since ‘righty righty, lefty loosey’ strategy doesn’t work w/ this kind of connection, was watching to see which way you were going to twist each one as mine are super stuck. Oh well.

    • Once you have taken the p trap apart, you may be able to use a short snake to unclog the rest of your drain.

    • Please make sure that the little plastic washer or seal is not damaged before putting it all together. Also, be careful to line up the connections so that they screw together easily that they aren’t cockeyed or cross thread.

    • You will do just fine. Remember not to force things when you are putting it back together. Just nice snd easy, so you don’t cross thread anything.

    @ivanvallejo3935@ivanvallejo393511 ай бұрын

    • The P trap is the part of the drain that has the bend in it, located under the sink at the lowest point, that’s why most of the debris collects at this point. You can “run” a paper towel or a rag through it to clean it out.
