Thanks I will definitely keep this method in mind for an actual clog. Generally my problem is a sluggish drain, ... I think it must have a lot to do with the way the pipes are installed. The plumbing is very old and I have to hope it holds out for a few more years so maintenance is essential.

Here's how I do it with any crystals for the drain. I take a glass jar, poor the crystals into the jar, you don't have to worry about an exact measurement of them, and slowly add water. I will swirl the jar a little so the crystals get stirred up and eventually dissolve in the water. At that point I dump it down the drain. If you have a clog already, sometimes the crystals won't dissolve when they hit the clog and end up adding to the problem. A caution if you try this. The jar will get pretty hot. I've never had a jar break from the heat, but I've had them get hot enough to make me move my hand away. Just be careful trying this and remember after a few minutes to run warm water down the drain to flush it out. ----- Original Message ----- From: Joy Cyr To: blindhandyman@yahoogroups.com Sent: Tuesday, June 09, 2009 1:33 PM Subject: [BlindHandyMan] instructions for DrainO crystals? Good day, I wondered if anyone might have the specific instructions for Drano crystals? I know the general concept but its been a few years since I used this kind of Drano and the sighted person I was with when I bought it couldn't read the instructions because they were printed too small.
