P-Trap Cleaning: The Quick & Easy Method

In this video, I’ll walk you through how to clean your P-trap, a crucial part of your plumbing system. The P-trap under your sink prevents sewer gases from entering your home and catches debris like hair and grease. Over time, it can become clogged, causing slow drainage or unpleasant odors. Don’t worry—cleaning it is a simple DIY task that can improve your sink’s performance.

Steps to Clean Your P-Trap:
0:21 - Prep Your Workspace: Place a bucket or bowl under the P-trap to catch water and debris, and keep a towel nearby.
0:35 - Loosen the P-Trap: Use channel-lock pliers or an adjustable wrench to loosen the slip nuts and remove the P-trap.
1:02 - Clean the P-Trap: Empty the water and debris, then use vinegar and a brush to scrub out built-up gunk.
1:14 - Reassemble and Test: Reattach the P-trap, tighten the nuts, and check for leaks by running water.

Cleaning your P-trap helps your sink drain faster, eliminates odors, and keeps your plumbing system working smoothly. If you found this tutorial helpful, make sure to like, comment, and subscribe for more easy home maintenance tips!
