Default Clogged Bathtub drain

I saw a quick hack to eliminate clogged drains using baking soda, vinegar, & boiling water. can I pour boiled water down my tub drain?

Any other ideas??

Probably not. Boiling water and plastic pipes don't usually mix well

Tub?? What model vessel do you have?

Unless your drain hoses are 'wet exhaust hose' then no, I would not be pouring boiling water down a drain.

1) Try and snake the drain line.

2) IF snaking doesn't work, replace the drain line.
