Some Information about Plumbing and Plumbing tools
Drain cleaner is generally a corrosive chemical such as a strong acid or base, used to dissolve clogs in plumbing. It is used to release stoppages in sinks, bathtubs, toilets, and showers. It is often used after a plunger has not been sufficient to finish the job. Drain cleaner should only be used according to the manufacturer's specifications, as improper use may cause chemical burns to skin, cause respiratory problems or damage lungs, or cause damage to eyes. With very strong corrosive properties, drain cleaners are one of the most hazardous household products sold to the public today. Care needs to be taken as well to ensure that different types of drain cleaners are not mixed in the drain.
