As stated I live in Guatemala and have a toilet clug. The pumbing system is not an American "S" shape and a snake will not work here. The plumbing has a 2 inch opening. I have tried the plunger, bleach and just giving it time to break down; nothing works. Is there a chemical drainer that will work? My plummer is afraid to use a "liquid drainer" type of solution, because he says it will melt the PVC piping. Is this true?
