A plumbing clog removal apparatus that includes a vacuum chamber having an inlet, an outlet, and a compressor port. The clog removal apparatus also includes an inlet seal disposed at the vacuum chamber inlet. The vacuum chamber inlet seal is movably coupled to the vacuum chamber inlet and is movable between an open position and a closed position. The plumbing clog removal apparatus also includes, an outlet seal disposed at the vacuum chamber outlet. The outlet seal is movably coupled to the vacuum chamber outlet and is movable between an open position and a closed position. The vacuum chamber also includes an air compressor fluidically connected to the vacuum chamber compressor port. The compressor is configured to remove air from the compressor chamber and form a low pressure condition inside the vacuum chamber.

Disclosed is a method of maintaining fluid flow through a plumbing system, comprising sealing an opening of all but one of the plurality of plumbing fixtures to result in a first unsealed plumbing fixture; connecting a vacuum assembly to an opening of the plumbing system below the horizontal pipe line by connecting a first end of a vacuum conduit to a vacuum source and a second end of the vacuum conduit to the opening of the plumbing system; connecting a pump assembly to the unsealed plumbing fixture by connecting a first end of a fluid conduit to a tank and a second end of the fluid conduit to an opening of the first unsealed plumbing fixture; activating the vacuum source; and introducing a volume of fluid from the pump assembly through the fluid conduit into the opening of the unsealed plumbing fixture. Also disclosed are systems for maintaining fluid flow.

A plunger sanitation device includes an elongated flexible container having an opening at one end and sides depending therefrom. A bottom portion depends from the sides at a distal end from the opening and the bottom portion sized to fit a circumference of a dome-shaped cup of a plunger. The elongated flexible container is water resistant and, in some embodiments, the bottom portion is concave are for extending into the dome-shaped cup of a plunger. In some embodiments, the elongated flexible container is made from a material that dissolves in water after use, allowing for flushing of the elongated flexible container.

A sanitation system includes a casing member having a top opening and a closed bottom and sidewalls that extend from the top opening to the closed bottom to form an interior compartment. The interior compartment is configured to receive a plunging instrument. The sanitation system may further include a container that holds the plunging instrument and the casing member. The container includes a vertical extension that extends vertically upward from the bottom of the container to be inserted within a bottom portion of the casing member and a cavity of the plunging instrument. Free ends of the casing member extend radially outward from the bottom of the container.

A disclosed plunging apparatus, system and method includes applying a graduated accordian suction apparatus defining an oval opening and gradually larger plunging sections, wherein a cross section of each gradually larger plunging section resembles a tear drop perimeter having a globular form at a bottom tapering to an apogee point top. The method also includes securing a projecting lip around the oval opening adjacent a toilet bowl drain. The method additionally includes commencing a plunging action via a smallest plunging section proximal the oval opening. The method further includes enabling the plunging action via a collapsible webbing there between the graduated plunging sections. The method yet includes continuing the plunging action via a largest plunging section distal the oval opening. The method even includes repeating the plunging action via a handle attached to one of the graduated plunging sections.
