Blocked drains, though a simple issue, can still be quite frustrating and annoying. But you don’t have to contend with it if you stop the drains from getting clogged in the first place.

Proper maintenance of your drain is enough to keep it free and devoid of all debris. Not everyone is adept at using a plunger, and if you’re such a person, that’s even more reason for you to heed the tips below. They’re simple, but they’re remarkably effective at keeping your drains free!

Keep Out

Food is good for you, but the same can’t be said about your drains. Try to keep any food out of your drain to prevent blockage. And most especially keep grease and coffee grounds out of kitchen drains too.

Beware of Grease

Never dispose of grease through a drain. A simpler and safer method is to pour the liquid grease into a container-we recommend you use a sealable container. When the grease cools, take the container and dump it into the trash. But if you prefer a greener disposal method, take it to the recycling center instead.

Bad Hair Day

Hair can be more harmful than you think. We wager it’s one of the most potent drain cloggers out there! So, we’ll tell you right now that keeping hair and even soap scum away from your bathroom drains is a very effective way to stop it from getting blocked.

Do this by using a hair catcher or shower drain. It matters little if the shower drain is made of silicon or stainless steel or if it’s a combination of both materials because it will still be effective.

You can also keep hair from blocking the drain by replacing the shower stopper with a type that has a built-in screen.

Now, remember, these are just preventive measures, but if the damage has already been done and you need professionals to help you with your blocked drain, waste no time in calling ADCO Plumbing!
