I have an issue with my bathtub. I looked through this topic and didn't see much regarding bathtubs so I suppose I'm the first to ask this, if not then I'm sorry. For the past six months to a year (I haven't really been paying attention) my bathtub has begun to build up this ridiculous and disgusting amount of hair in the pipes. I can't figure out how to get rid of it now. I've poured bleach, drain cleaner, and backing soda + vinegar into the pipe yet it's not doing any good. The only temporary fix is to slid this barbed plastic cord down into the drain and slowly pull out globs of hair, as well as use a grate and clean the hair off that after every show. I'm convinced there has to be some way to clean this out. It's getting disgusting to the point that I don't even want to take a shower in there. In fact, if I set a cloth or soap or anything on the floor of the tub while water is running it'll be covered and coated in hair when I pick it up. Is there any chemical I can use to clean this out or something that doesn't require me to purchase new pipes, go under the house to fix the pipes, etc?

Fire Storm posted:Liquid Plummer maximum strength gel or foaming gel works good. Let it sit for a half hour, then lots of water. If THAT doesn't work... I'm not sure if the air plunger will work because of the way my drain is designed. http://fi.somethingawful.com/is/img139/4275/dsc00446ld1.jpg And I've used Liquid Plummer as well.
