Hi, I remember a landlord of mine in the past had a gallon jug of this extremely strong liquid drain cleaner. You get it at the plumbing supply store and now available at Lows or Home Depot. You pour some down the drain and wait about 5 minutes and then the clog pushes up like a geyser. The pressure of the chemical reaction is quite impressive. I wouldn't use it pvc piping only in metal pipes that are not too too old. Andy

I nee do feel up my pipes more downstairs . I know there is a main line clean out and I know there is a cleanout under the lines that come from the kitchen sink because we are going to change that . to install a door at the bottom of the outside bilco doors.
