I am just the handy guy at local Hostel (kinda Hotel) and well I got assigned to look at the smelly urinal to see what I could do or should we call a plumber. Well let me tell you they don't me anywhere near enough to do that.
But I went ahead and took off the bottom pipes and the u pipe was very clogged and beyond disgusting, blah blah, I told my manager we should just replace it but he goes into this song and dance about finding one and .... so I said I could probably clean it out and soaked it in vinegar overnight and then rinsed and chiseled a bit and it is very clear although still odoriferous.
So I put it back on and now it leaks on the u tube.
I put some putty on and teflon tape but the tape seemed to have come off while I was screwing the flange (???) back on.
So please help on how I might do this putty and teflon tape stuff.
Many thanks.
