How To Clean Tub & Shower Drain Holes When Water Overflows
1. Unclog and Clean Your Shower Drain
You can do this using a plunger, drain snake, or chemical cleaning solution. Plungers are more effective when used in bathtubs rather than walk-in showers, so keep that in mind. If you opt for a drain snake, we recommend hiring a professional plumber to avoid further damage. If you want a more aggressive solution, you can turn to a chemical cleaner as well.
2. Clean Your Bath Overflow Hole
Your bathtub’s overflow is the small circular piece of metal between your shower drain and faucet. This hole exists to stop bathwater from getting too high and overflowing over the sides. You can do this by removing the metal piece and pouring vinegar and baking soda into the whole then flushing with water. If you are unable to remove the metal, you can also clean it by using a long, thin bottle brush to scrub the overflow and ensure that it doesn’t get plugged.
3. Scrub Your Shower Head or Consider Installing a Shower Filter
If you notice chalky white buildup on your showerhead, it’s a sign that soap scum and mineral residue are accumulating on your showerhead and in your drain holes. If you notice this, follow the steps above to clean your drain and overflow hole then use an old toothbrush and some vinegar to clear your showerhead of buildup. If you are looking for a more long-term solution, you might consider investing in a water filter on your showerhead. This will not only keep your showerhead free of mineral buildup but will also save your drain from clogging due to minerals as well.
