Water Assisted Toilet Plunger
A typical toilet plunger is disclosed that allows the operator to optionally choose to manually vent a plunger's cup of the air that is naturally trapped within the cup that renders the plunger less efficient as a result of the compressibility of air. The venting of air is accomplished by the opening of a shut off valve located within the inside and top of the cup. The shut off valve is connected to a longitudinal rod supported within the hollow shaft of said plunger. The rod protrudes through the grab handle of the plunger and terminates at a depressible button attached to the rod. Venting occurs when the operator depresses the button, which causes the rod to move longitudinally within the shaft, resulting in the shut off valve moving sway from its seat. Air entrapped is allowed out through holes located in the shaft.
