BLOCKED DRAIN PIPES

A completely clogged bowl will not respond to the suction cup treatment. Do not attempt to keep flushing the toilet to remove the blockage. do not under any circumstances pour chemical drain cleaner into the bowl.
The problem that exists here is probably a blocked drain pipe below the trap of the toilet(Fig 2)
You have three options
* Remove the toilet bowl and auger the drain pipe.
* Find the clean-out port at the botton of the vent stack to this drain, open the port, and auger the pipe.
* My suggestion: Call the pro. The blockage could be in the pipe that runs from your home to the sewer or septic tank. The equipment necessary to clear this blockage is very costly to buy.

  1. We get a product to buy to clear blocked drains. It clears most blocks within few days after usage. As the product is natural, there are no other problems too. Normal materials that cause blocks are removed. Using harsh chemicals will kill the bacteria which controls the decaying process which result in these blocks. The product we use is only $ 6 USD for 200 Gms pack. Extreme conditions of block needs 4-5 packs maximum to remove block. We use this and get good results. It is also one of the best product we get for septic tank treatment. All odor related to toilet is addressed using this. I don't know whether they ship internationally, but if it is available, please try and find result.
