Question 1

If you used drano for a hair clog in shower drain and it didn’t work, can you use this after?  Would there be an adverse chemical reaction?

Accepted Answer

I didn't use it immediately after Drano, but I used it after trying Drano for months if not years with limited results.  This worked the first time I used it and three months later the drain is still flowing free.  I was frankly amazed.  I've never seen a product work as well.  (I did flush with boiling water after letting this work overnight.  I don't know if it enhanced the effect, but I am extremely pleased with it.)

Question 2

Can it be used on pvc pipes?

Accepted Answer

At least in my bathroom sink, it was a disaster. This product dissolved something and the pvc pipe detached from the pipe under the sink causing a leak that damaged everything I had inside the cabinet and the hair was still in there. I had a clogged sink and now I have a useless sink because I have to find a plumber to fix the pipes. Thankfully I have two more bathrooms with sinks that I can use.  Take the risk if you want, I'm not using it never again.

Question 3

No instructions on using with garbage disposal? Do you do it the same way as if you just had a drain with no disposal?

Accepted Answer

My disposal was clogged up when it quit working and the water was also backed up in my dishwasher. I ordered some more Green Gobbler with the 2 spouts and used one in my disposal, waited 15 minutes +, then poured a pan of hot water in it again about 15 or so minutes. It just sat there and didn't go down, but the next morning it was down. I poured another pan of hot water in and the clog was gone. Had to dip out my dishwasher, but then everything worked well. BTW, I wouldn't recommend standing over the sink after pouring in the hot water, because it does fume some.

Question 4

Will it work on clog that is several feet past the trap in shower?

Accepted Answer

I think it depends on how long a pipe you have and the pitch of the pipe. I have a 30 ft almost level drain from my kitchen sink. I had a very slow drain but it was many feet past the trap so the blockage did not backup the water quickly. I tried 4 applications of Green Gobbler over 2 days (yes I used hot water, 30 minute soak, overnight soak, boiling water, etc) and it did not work. I will try the Green main line stuff, and the bio-clean. Hope something works.
