Why Do Drains Clog?
There are several reasons why your drain may not be working optimally. First, there are many older homes and corporate buildings in the area, with older pipes that corrode over time. We'll inspect those pipes to ensure that they are not impeding your drainage. If there is not an issue with the pipe itself, then we've got to look at what's going down the pipe. Pipes are made to drain water. Anything other than liquids that are going down the pipes could potentially clog the drain. Kitchen sinks often endure a lot of abuse from things like cooking grease, paper products, and food remains. Over time, without maintenance, kitchen sinks can become clogged with these items. Bathroom drains are exposed to a variety of personal care products and human hair. The combination of soap and hair accumulation can be particularly effective in clogging your bathroom drains.
How to Avoid Clogged Drains
- To avoid kitchen drain blockage, scrape food off plates before rinsing them in the sink
- Utilize a strainer in your sinks and tub basins to catch food products and hair
- Before turning on the garbage disposal, run cold water
- Before turning off the garbage disposal, run water through for several seconds
- Never put cooking grease down the sink; rather, let it harden at room temperature and throw in the trash
