If water is backing up in your bathtub you’ve got a clog. And chances are it’s due to hair and other nasty stuff. But don’t worry, you can save yourself $79 to $100 by fixing this problem yourself.
This video will take you through our step-by-step process on how to remove a clog in your bathtub.
Unfortunately, a lot of us are afraid to tackle this project. We shouldn’t be. By using a pair of needle nose pliers and a screwdriver you can fix most clogs in a matter of 10 minutes of less.
It simply involves removing the overflow valve that is directly below the bathtub faucet and taking off the screen that sits on the drain. If you’re like me you probably don’t mind taking 10 minutes out of your day to save $100.

Using vinegar to remove limescale is non-toxic and detergent free.
To prevent limescale pour out any excess water from the kettle when you have finished using it. It is also possible to purchase a kettle descaler, which is a steel mesh ball that collects limescale when placed inside the kettle.

Mix 2 cups (470 mL) of vinegar and water and pour them into the kettle. If the volume of your kettle is too small for this mixture, fill it about halfway and place any leftover solution to the side. For best results, use white vinegar and water in a 1:1 ratio.[1]
If yours is an electric kettle, make sure it’s unplugged before pouring in the water and vinegar.
It’s a good idea to check the owner’s manual for your particular kettle to make sure that it’s safe to add vinegar to the interior.
Tip: There are commercial descalers available, but make sure they are specifically for use on kettles and are not metal descalers. If you choose to use one, follow the manufacturer’s instructions.
This build-up causes water to take longer to boil and can even lead your kettle to burn out in the long run.
Fortunately, if you begin to notice limescale build-up in your kettle, you can easily use vinegar or lemon juice to get rid of it.

Turn the kettle on and bring the vinegar solution to a boil. Plug in the kettle if it’s electric or turn on the stove underneath a stovetop kettle to boil the solution. Let the solution boil for about a minute or so.[2]
Feel free to use a high heat setting to bring the solution to a boil as quickly as possible. It shouldn’t take longer than 5 minutes to get it boiling.
Turn off the kettle once the solution is boiling and let it sit for an hour. The vinegar solution will do work its descaling magic simply by sitting in the kettle, so you don’t necessarily have to boil it for a set amount of time. If you don’t want to wait an entire hour, allow the solution to sit for at least 30 minutes before pouring it out.[3]
If yours is an electric kettle with an automatic switch-off feature, feel free to let it switch off on its own instead of watching to see when it boils.
How To Descale A Kettle
To descale a kettle, fill it with a mixture of 1 part white vinegar and 1 part water (one cup).
Leave the vinegar mixture in the kettle for 1 hour.
Then, dump it out and wipe down the inside of the kettle with a clean rag.
Once all the lime-scale is gone, rinse your kettle out with water 5 times, and voila.

Pour out the solution after an hour and rinse out the kettle. Be sure the kettle is cool to the touch before handling it. Thoroughly rinse the inside of the kettle under the sink faucet to get rid of any leftover vinegar solution. For best results, rinse out the kettle 2 or 3 times to get as much of the vinegar out of the inside as possible.[4]
If your kettle has a removable lid, take this lid off to make it easier to rinse out the interior. You can rinse the lid by itself to make sure it’s also clean.
5
Use a clean, damp cloth to wipe away any leftover limescale. The vinegar solution will probably not have removed all the limescale, but any leftover build-up should be easy to remove by hand. If a damp cloth isn’t cutting it, add a little bit of baking soda to a damp sponge and use that to clean out the inside of the kettle.[5]
For best results, use a microfiber cloth or a cleaning brush with an elongated handle. Make sure you get all the corners as well.

Run a plain water cycle to get rid of any lingering vinegar taste. Fill your kettle halfway with plain water and bring it to a boil. Pour this water out once it starts to boil. You may have to do this 2 or 3 times in order to completely deodorize the interior.[6]
Repeat this cycle until you can’t smell any vinegary odor in your kettle. You may also want to “test” your kettle by preparing a beverage in it and seeing if it tastes at all like vinegar.
