TOTO Cast Iron Nexus Bathtub

To remove a bathtub, turn off the water to the bathroom. Using a wrench, disconnect the tub drain while locating the pipes and loosening the connections and/or joints. Slowly pry the tub from the wall, making way from one end to the other. Pulling the tub out is the next step and is typically completed with the help of another person.

To unclog a bathroom drain, remove both the strainer or stopper located over the drain and clean any gunk off either. A drain claw or stick can be inserted down the drain, hooking onto any hair or soap that has clogged the drain. Once this process is complete, test the water. Baking soda and boiling hot water can often instantly unclog the drain when poured directly down it.
