We have a clog in our bathtub. The drain has one of those metal discs in it so you can't push anything through. I've got a homeowner snake but having trouble. The picture shows the plumbing underneath. Long pipe up is the overflow, horizontal coming from the drain. The clog I believe is in that horizontal pipe.
Interesting note, there is no stopper or linkage assembly at all in the overflow pipe. Is that normal?
I can't get the snake to negotiate that 90 degree turn where the 2 meet. If I feed it in from the overflow up top it goes straight down past it. If I feed it in from the trap underneath it goes straight up.
Do you have any tips on how to get in there?
Thanks!
