Clogged Sink Cleanups with RIDGID
Dealing with clogged sinks is a common challenge, particularly for plumbers, but leveraging the right tools can significantly make this challenge a lot easier. Whether it’s an overflowing kitchen sink or a clogged bathroom basin, RIDGID offers a suite of accessories designed to meet specific needs for clogged sink cleanups.
Sink Overflows
Water pooling on floors from sink overflows can lead to messy and hazardous situations. Left unchecked, sink overflows can cause water damage to floors, walls, and cabinets. It’s important to have the right tools to quickly address these issues and prevent further damage. The Floor Tool with Wet Shoe can tackle wide surface areas like wet kitchen or bathroom floors to save time. The RIDGID Locking Wet Nozzle accessory helps capture liquid messes. It comes in two sizes: 2-1/2 in. diameter and 1-7/8 in. diameter to fit your RIDGID shop vac hose.
Basement Backups
Basement backups present another challenge that also often requires prompt action to mitigate potential damage. These backups can result from various issues including drain obstructions, sewer line blockages, or groundwater infiltration during heavy rainfall or flooding events. You can use a RIDGID wet/dry vac to remove standing water quickly and effectively. Check the size of your vac hose for the compatible accessory you need. The RIDGID Locking Wet Nozzle attachment can help remove water and debris from basement surfaces, drains, and other areas.
Tight Spaces in Kitchens and Bathrooms
Maneuverability is a key consideration when choosing tools for clogged sinks in the kitchen or bathroom. RIDGID’s compact and lightweight 3 Gallon 18V Cordless NXT Wet/Dry Vac, paired with the RIDGID 1-7/8 in. Wet Nozzle accessory, is ideal for cleaning up wet messes in cramped spaces. With a cordless design, this wet/dry vac allows you to navigate around cabinets, pipes, and fixtures without the hindrance of a cord, ensuring unimpeded access to sinks. The Wet Nozzle attachment is ideal for removing water from sinks and surrounding areas. It has a removable squeegee insert that makes it suitable for cleaning up liquids on hard surfaces such as laminate, hardwood, and tile flooring. Use the squeegee insert with the RIDGID 1-7/8 in. Extension Wand or the RIDGID 1-7/8 in. Telescoping Wand for better reach. Conveniently store the extension wands on the Pro Gear Accessory Vac-Mount Attachment, which connects 3 Gallon NXT vacs to Pro Gear Systems.
Having the right tools can make all the difference when it comes to tackling clogged sink cleanups. RIDGID wet/dry vacuums and accessories offer efficiency and versatility not just for homeowners but also for trade professionals.
