I have a tub that won't drain so tried to snake it but didn't get far, it doesn't have a U type trap instead it has a can type thing, I did a little web searching and it seems I have a barrel or vertical trap. Are there any tips for working with this type of trap? I'm planning on getting the water out of the tub and then opening the trap (it has a large nut on the top), then I guess I'll clean it out and snake from there on. I've never worked on one of these traps before - any tips?
Thanks,
Peter
