Poo-Poo Problems?

Modern problems require modern solutions!

Unfortunately, clearing backed up toilets is a regular part of my professional life. I am often surprised how many times I find out people have no clue how to operate a plunger. I am also constantly plagued by facilities not having the right kind of plunger available for the shape of the bowl.

The difference between being able to successfully plunge the toilet and the ramifications of not being able to plunge that toilet our night and day. Often times when toilets don’t get plunged effectively, especially in group settings, chaos can ensue. at the very least there’s gonna be some festering sewage while everybody waits for somebody to come fix it.

The solution is the Queen Bee. I swear by these things and I’ll never touch another plunger on purpose. I have removed some crazy clogs with these things. No must no fuss. Down the hole it goes! In a really bad situation, you can swap out the handle for a broomstick and get some serious action on it, while staying far from the scene of the crime! I like to call that the “King Queen”.

As far as the technique goes, it’s pretty straightforward. Most people can figure out which end goes in the toilet, and which one is for your hands. As much as possible, you want to let it get a little bit of substance in the bulb so you’re not pumping pure air. Trust me from experience, the last thing you want to make is shit bowl champagne.  Once you’ve got the business end of the Bee in the bowl hole, start your compressions. Start that CPR slow and low like a Barry White song. Push that plunger in deep and make that clog succumb to the in and out pressure as you work it with an even rhythm, using the suction to move the obstruction back and forth in the sewer pipe until she finally lets go…  if you do it just right, all the messes stay right in the hole!

If you still can’t manage to do it like this, they’re still other tools available, that we will get into in another post, but hopefully this saves someone an expensive plumbing call for something they could handle themselves!
