ROTHENBERGER Industrial RoPump Power Suction Pressure Pipe Cleaner incl. 2 adapters, Siphon and drains in Kitchen, Bathroom, WC

Expensive, but boy it works! The Mrs said I squealed with delight when I used it. It cleared the blockage with one blast.

There's no other manual pressure cleaner that I've encountered which works as well as this. It's powerful, easy to control, and can be operated without making a mess! Until recently I'd been using a pump-up pneumatic gun to clear sinks. It worked about 50% of the time, but with distinct disadvantages. The sudden jolt of air risked opening up pipe couplings and it regularly sprayed water everywhere. A wave of black gunk coating both me and a bathroom wall prompted my purchase of the Rothenberger instead. The difference in usability is night and day. For starters, the Rothenberger uses water, not air, to do the job. Because you control the pressure with the plunger, there's no risk of explosive sprays of water. It's a more gentle process but one with more power behind it to shift the blockage. If you're serious about doing the job, or you're a professional plumber, this is the piece of kit to choose, without a doubt. It consists of a heavy duty plastic tube with an adjustable handle at the front and a plunger handle at the back. Two hard rubber tips are included, one short reach for basins, and a long reach for toilets. The rubber is necessarily on the hard side to enable you to push down sufficiently on it without it buckling. Inside the tube a simple hard rubber disc is attached to the end of the piston. There are no valves or flaps here, and nothing to go wrong. This is a foolproof device that simply sucks water in and out when you move the piston. Placing it over a plug hole or WC gives you the hydraulic muscle you need to push any blockages free. The only thing you need to remember is to suck water into it from the basin or toilet pan first, before pushing down on the plunger. If air bubbles are escaping when you push down, you're doing it wrong! USAGE TIPS * Some have commented on a difficulty in achieving a seal. It isn't such an issue with a hydraulic pump like this, because a small fluid leakage still leaves you with workable pressure. If you are having issue though, wrap a sacrificial old towel around the tip and mould it to the sink or toilet bowl you are trying to clear. Get an assistant to hold it down while you operate the pump. Result - perfect seal and blockage removed. * This is best used with the help of an assistant, especially on sinks or basins. Get them to block overflow outlets with a wet cloth while you hold down and pump the Rothenberger. * The ability to suck fluid back as well as push it forward is a big help. You can often loosen a blockage by working it back and forth a little first, before pushing it free. * Remember this is designed as a hydraulic, not a pneumatic pump! It won't work if you try pumping air with it, but it will when you use it correctly and pump water. If this has been helpful I'd be hugely grateful if you could let me know, by hitting the button below. Many thanks :-)

Does exactly what it claims

Everytime I use it, it sticks and can't get it to work again. I have to ask someone strong to get it to work. Wouldn't buy it again.

This thing is mighty- nothing comes close to the robustness or force generated by this, it literally feels like you have the blowing force of Jumbo's trunk at your fingertips & I can tell it's built to last unlike smaller ones I've had over the years!

Certainly worth buying rather than calling a plumber. Successfully cleared a shower that had not been cleared using several other devices. The massive displacement offered by this RoPump got the job done 👏☺️

We’ve had a desperately slow draining kitchen sink for ages. I’ve tried every chemical treatment available and a couple of cheap and plunger/piston type devices. Just opened this behemoth up and it’s just cleared the drains with the first run. Unbelievable Jeff. Often the word “professional” gets attached to all manner of rubbish but not in this case. Terrific bit of kit.

Had this less than a month and use 4 or 5 times. The handle has broken and the whole thing has stop working properly what a waste of £80 never getting this ever again.

Sehr gut anzuwenden.

Après toutes les techniques possibles et inimaginables(javel déboucheur- eau chaude-furet), j'ai pas réussis a déboucher mes chiottes. Le carton était arrivé avec un trou... plus aucune écriture sur le produit (marque tout ça) Je l'ai deballé il avait comme plein de marque de doigts dessus (en mode deja utilisé) Mais les critiques negatives je m'en fou un peu, c'est dommage parce que le produit fontionne folie du coup 5 étoiles, j'ai attendu 3 jours avec mes chiottes bouchée, j'ai fait 2 aller-retour et j'ai entendu lebruit de l'écoulement des eaux. se fût une libération :D recommande pour ceux qui veulent se lancer dans les débouchages, et appeler un plombier pour qu'il débouche et payer le meme prix que cet outil, a vous de faire votre choix !

Fa quallo che deve fare. Ottimo prodotto, solo un po' caro.

Lo compre para mí trabajo por qué ya tenía una igual y la próxima que compre será la misma. Para mi el mejor desatascador del mercado.

parfaitement efficace si on l'utilise bien
