Hello Barb! The problem we seem to have in our house is that there's a lot of hair that gets wrapped around the up/down drain plug in the bathtub and in that first section of pipe. You can remove that drain plug and pull out the hair. It's gross and slimy so wear gloves!

Boil a pot of water and carefully pour the water down the clogged bathtub drain. Step 4. After pouring the boiling water down the bathtub drain, pour ¼ cup of baking soda and 1 cup of white vinegar into the drain. Let sit for 15 to 20 minutes.
Remove as much as possible with a snake or drain cleaning tool. Pour ½ cup baking soda then ½ cup white vinegar in the drain and cover, letting sit for 20 minutes. Boil water, remove cover, and pour water down the drain. You may have to repeat the process.
Hi Barb - This is what we do and it works really well. Pour 1 TBSP of baking soda and then 1/2 cup vinegar slowly down the drain. Let it fizzle and pour a little more. Then follow up with boiling water. You will probably need to repeat 2-5 times. For the most stubborn drains, I use BioKleen which is less toxic than traditional drain cleaners. Hope this helps! Hugs, Holly
