I'm a DIY guy with a clog / extremely slow bathroom drain - bathroom has just a sink and a tub. The sink backfills into the tub. Neither drains. Pulled the overflow off the tub and tried a snake. It runs over to the bathroom sink. So I pulled the trap on the sink and started the snake there. Runs right back over and up out of the bathtub overflow. I'm guessing someone saved a buck and used a T instead of Wye fitting? But anyone have any recommendation on what to do next?
The sink drain is PVC. No idea on the tub. Anyone used the water pressure bladder things? I was thinking of sticking one in the sink and one in the tub and turning them on together? But I'm a little leery of pressure in the drain line.
We're on a septic system so I'm double-reluctant to use drain cleaners. And there's a second bathroom not 6 foot away from this one and it drains fine. It sits slightly further from the septic holding tank.
