Plugged Drain
Okay Dilema 1- when my DH turned the water on in the kitchen sink the water backed up in the shower. Were guessing that is a plugged drain somewhere. So what is a good drain cleaner I have read not to...

I agree I talked to a guy at Lowes about my situation he said do not use draino you could use Rid X but he said to poor 3 cans of Coke down the drain and another 3 cans the next day and that should clear up the problem of there is a blockage of hair and such :)Thank you
What I meant I wouldnt be pouring anything down (though least of all chems) until you are sure tanks is empty- which was the first concensous as to why backing up in shower. That needs to verified. With the tanks empty any liquid would flow, or a place to go if theres a blockage in the shower line or what is causing it kitchen sink to come up in bath you then you can deal with it. But if tank is full (or your lines blocked or valve situation isnt allowing) just adding. The way the lines are plumbed isnt clear.
If drains are as it should be and would otherwise work, I would then add to the shower line if it backs up try to clear. If added to kitchen and it backs up you have that piping above full of water. Least starting from shower you can control the level.
