A stopper mechanism for a drain includes one of a magnetic stopper and a diamagnetic and a magnetic field generator with a fixed position in relation to the drain which produces a magnetic field having a precise combination of position, geometry, and strength to support the stopper in a stable, levitated, distal position with relation to a drain to permit fluid and waste to pass by the stopper and which does not provide any contact points for collection of debris thereon, and wherein the magnetic field can be changed to cause the magnetic stopper to engage the drain to restrict flow through the drain. The application of the electromagnetic levitation principles creates a truly “clogless” drain mechanism.
