Simple Tricks to Take Care of Clogged Drains

These words strike fear and loathing into a homeowner’s heart: “The bathroom sink drain is clogged!” Nothing can ruin a pleasant day faster than the thought of shutting down a crucial room in your home until the plumber arrives. But it’s a fact of home-owning life: At some point, the drains in your home will become clogged. The question is, will you be caught by surprise, or be prepared and possibly avoid the problem altogether? And will you contact a business like FS Drainage to get it sorted out?

A little preventive maintenance now can go a long way when it comes to drain-related problems. Plan ahead, and you’ll avoid the all-too-common clogged drain frustrations: waiting for the plumber, a bathroom floor covered in water, etc.

What’s the key to preventing a clogged drain? Choosing the best preventative products that allow you to live your life while minimizing those pesky drain issues for you.

Here are few easy ways to avoid clogged drains.

For the kitchen disposal, you can run hot or cold water through the drain. Cold water run liberally through the sink will loosen stuck items, while hot water will help get rid of food residue. Instead of pouring hot grease down the kitchen drain, pour it into another container and then throw it away.

Don’t forget to clean the drain pieces regularly to keep them in good working order. If long hair or pet hair is a problem, consider strainers over every drain in the house.

While many companies offer drain-clearing products, we recently came across one with a completely different approach to addressing the issue. PF Waterworks focuses on eliminating the problem with a line of clog-prevention products that reduce the build-up of clogs and the need for drain cleaning products, thereby reducing frustration and saving time and money for the homeowners.
