There is nothing more frustrating than a clogged drain. When the kitchen sink is plugged up it puts a halt to everything. Cooking supper or doing the dishes will be impossible with a plugged-up sink. If you have a clogged shower drain, it can be frustrating. If the drain is completely clogged, you won't be able to use the shower at all. If the shower is draining slowly, your feet will be covered with water, and soap scum will build up on the floor. To prevent this from happening, here are a few things you can do to avoid a situation.
Pouring grease down the kitchen sink is one of the most common problems a local plumber is called out for. Grease can build up in the pipes, and when it cools, it will harden, choking off the drain opening. It may seem like a hassle to drain the grease in a jar and throw it in the trash, but its worth it in the long run.
A drain screen is an inexpensive way to prevent the shower drain from filling up with hair. They cost next to nothing and work quite well.
Many people have garbage disposals under the sink. But when you throw the wrong stuff down there problems arise. Most food scraps will go down the disposal very nicely, but there are a few things you cannot put through it. Do not throw the following down the chute, hard seeds like a peach pit, egg shells, meat and surprisingly small seeds can block it completely.
While it is fine to flush toilet paper and tissues down the drain, there are certain things that you should not. Things like paper towels, diapers, baby wipes and band-aids are examples of stuff that will back up a toilet. Anything that is not biodegradable should not go down the toilet.
You can call a plumber to fix a clogged drain. They have the tools and know-how to un-plug a clogged drain with a plumbing auger of even high-pressure water if needed. When you have this service performed it will blast out anything that was blocking your drain.
If you make one of these common mistakes and your drains do become clogged, you want to avoid using liquid drain cleaners. These products do work on some clogs, but in many cases they can start corrosion and cause problems down the road.
You can try pouring some baking soda down the drain followed by the same amount of of vinegar and let it sit for ten or fifteen minutes. After that, chase it with hot water and let that site for a while. In many cases the clog will pass if it was caused by something greasy. If that does not clear things up, then you will probably want to call a local plumber.
