Abstract

An apparatus for unclogging air conditioning unit's evaporator drain lines includes an air conditioner plumbing device. This plumbing device includes an oblong plastic plunger and a “T” drain line valve flap, which works in conjunction with a PVC tube and a clear plastic tubing. The PVC tube is inserted into the AC unit's drain line, and the plunger is squeezed causing strong suction, also activating the valve flap, aiding in pushing the debris out through the tubes, onto the ground. The device is a simple and fast process, in addition to being very affordable and reusable. This device reduces service repair needs and calls, and also helps to prevent water damage to walls, carpet, floors, and pipes, as well as reducing potential health problems

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
1 . An apparatus for unclogging air conditioning unit's evaporator drain line comprising an oblong rubber type plastic plunger device, once engaged dislodges the debris, improves airflow output.  
   
   
       2 . The apparatus for unclogging AC unit's evaporator drain line according to  claim 1  wherein includes a PVC tube.  
   
   
       3 . The unclogging component, according to  claim 2  has a ¾″ female end, which is inserted into the AC unit evaporator drain line, the debris location referenced in  claim 1 , as causing the unit to be clogged.  
   
   
       4 . The apparatus unclogging device, according to  claim 1 , also includes the aid of a clear plastic tube component.  
   
   
       5 . The apparatus for unclogging AC unit's drain line according to  claim 4 , is a clear plastic tube with a ½″ male end, is to be attached to the ½″ female end of the unclogging apparatus of  claim 3 .  
   
   
       6 . An apparatus for unclogging the AC unit's drain line requires an additional component, which is a ⅛″ width “T” drain line valve flap.  
   
   
       7 . The apparatus for unclogging the drain line, according to  claim 6 , has a “key” element, which is the valve flap, once activated, strengthens the force of suction, also creating an “outflow” pathway for the debris to exit.  
   
   
       8 . The apparatus unclogging device according to  claim 7 , engages once the plunger device  claim 1  is activated by squeezing it ( claim 1)  three to five times.  
   
   
       9 . The unclogging drain line apparatus in accordance to  claim 1 , gets attached to the ⅛″ opening of  claim 6  into the apparatus use of  claim 4 , as it is (at that point), also attached to the apparatus unclogging device opening  claim 1 .  
   
   
       10 . The unclogging apparatus for the drain line, according to the ½″ width male end of  claim 4 , still attached is unclogging device  claim 1  and unclogging device,  claim 6 , and then inserted into the ½″ female end  claim 2 , apparatus unclogging device.  
   
   
       11 . The other “key” element of the unclogging process of the AC unit's drain line, is the apparatus  claim 1 , whereby at this point, sets the necessary force of suction into motion, is then squeezed 3 to 5 times, as indicated in  claim 8 .  
   
   
       12 . The apparatus unclogging drain line device  claim 6 , having been activated, as a result of  claim 11 , in turn, activates the apparatus unclogging device of  claim 7 , therefore dislodges the debris, from the AC unit's drain line, as in  claim 1 .  
   
   
       13 . The combined activation of apparatus unclogging devices,  claim 7 , in motion with  claim 11 , forces and pushes the dislodging of dogged debris from the unit's evaporator drain line as stated in claimed  1 , continuing its exit also through  claim 2 ,  claim 4 , and finally the ⅛″ cling of  claim 6 , out, onto the ground or the designated container.
