When it rains, it pours. 9PM last night the drains in our house stopped draining; yep clogged somewhere in the main. Luckily, no solids to deal with, and the clean-out is hidden in the front lawn so no buckets either.

Tried running the (running) hose down the for about 20' before it wouldn't go any farther and got a tiny bit of flow. Step 2; filled the pipes up to the brim of the clean-out, placed the plunger on there, shclukka, shclukka, when the plunger sucked itself inside-out on a downstroke I was golden (so to speak). Ran the hose on full down the pipe for about 5 min to be sure I had free flow, patted myself on the back, went to bed.
