I’m not having too many issues with clogs. When there have been problems, it’s usually been hair that a 25 ft drain snake pulled out rather easily. I’ve used drain bacterial/enzyme treatments and the trap seems like it’s relatively clean now. However, just above the trap’s water line, I can see through the drain cover. It gets wet but doesn’t exactly flow. I certain can’t soak it in an enzyme treatment. I’ve removed the cover (just a couple of screws) and tried scraping it with a screwdriver or plastic knife. Some of it comes off, and it seems to be a combination of mineral deposits, sludge, and hair that doesn’t have a particularly offensive odor.. I’ve previously tried spraying a drain enzyme cleaner mixture in there, although I’m not sure how well it sticks.
The drain flows fine but it looks gross. I’ve got CLR and baking soda but no vinegar.
