Michael Petruccelli says; Drains:
We don’t usually pay much attention to drains until
they’re clogged. But all year your hair, toothpaste, shampoo, and conditioner
are building up in sink and tub drains. Remove the stopper — unscrew the shower
drain — and clear away obvious gunk, like hair and soap. Soak the drain in
vinegar to clear away mineral deposits. Then, pour boiling water, or a mixture
of ½ cup white vinegar and ½ cup baking soda, down the drain, which will bubble
away crud sticking to pipes.
