Bathtub Drum Traps

The idea behind a drum trap was to let water through and to hold the hair and debris in the drum trap itself. The issue became when no one cleaned them out yearly and the covers sealed on and they became impossible to open without breaking. People that are handy and can play around with some plumbing can handle unscrewing the drum trap cover and cleaning out the drain. If your not a plumbing pro leave the mess to the pros.
