As I discussed on another topic, I got some dirt in my bathtub which went into the trap and this has made the water drain slowly. I was wondering how I could get the dirt out of the trap...
Anyway I finally started ripping out walls in my bathroom and made a big mess - got out the shop vac. While I was cleaning up I decided to stick the vac hose on the tub drain... (I first covered the tub vent with drop cloth plastic.)
Slurp!
Then ran a little more water into the drain, then vacuumed again...
Slurp!
Now it drains just fine.
