FAQs
How does a force cup plunger work?
A force cup plunger works by creating a vacuum and pressure. When you push down, air is forced past the seal, and when you pull up, it creates suction. This combination of pressure and suction helps to dislodge and move blockages within the pipe.
What is the diameter of this plunger?
The Monument Force Cup Plunger - 75mm has a diameter of 75mm (approximately 3 inches).
Can this plunger be used for toilets?
This specific 75mm force cup plunger is designed for sink and bath drains and may not be large enough or shaped correctly for effective use on most toilet bowls.
How often should I use this plunger?
Use the plunger as needed when you notice slow draining or a blockage. Regular use for minor slowdowns can help prevent more severe clogs.
What should I do if the plunger doesn't work?
If plunging is unsuccessful, the blockage may be too stubborn. Consider using a drain snake or auger, or consulting a professional plumber.
What is the return policy?
Monument offers a 30-day money-back guarantee for any unsatisfied customers, provided the returned items are in their original packaging and condition.
Troubleshooting
Plunger is not creating suction.
Ensure the plunger cup is fully submerged in water and forms a tight seal around the drain opening. Check the cup for any tears or damage.
Blockage is not clearing after several attempts.
The blockage may be too severe or solid for the plunger alone. Try using a drain snake or a chemical drain cleaner (use with caution and follow product instructions) after attempting to plunge.
Rubber cup feels stiff or less flexible.
This can happen with age or improper storage. Try soaking the rubber cup in hot (not boiling) water for a few minutes to restore flexibility.
