    Clogged Townhouse Sink
    Hi,
    My bathroom sink is clogged on the third floor of my townhouse. It takes a very short time to back up (washing my hands for instance), and it takes hours for the water to drain. I took the trap off and it was clear. I also went 25 feet in with the auger and there were no clogs in the drain. None of the other drains in the townhouse are clogged at all. I talked to someone who thought that it may have something to do with the plumbing vent but I really don't know. Please help me!
    Thanks, Jordan

    Look down in the drain and you will see a rod about 6" down. Hair builds up and fermemts on that rod. Fish it out If you have a problem getting the stopper out click on back and I'll walk you through it. All this is so much do-do if you have a vessel sink in place of a regular lavatory. Let me know. Hope this helps, Tom
