(EstateNewsWire.com, September 26, 2012 ) Nashville, TN – Drain maintenance may not be on homeowners’ top ten things to do around the house, but taking a little time to give some TLC to a vital system in one’s home can prevent or eliminate major problems down the road. Greenway Home Services, experts in plumbing repair, offers some very simple tips on keeping one’s drains working properly for years to come. One should visit http://www.trustgreenway.com/ or call 615-970-3354 if plumbing help is needed.
In most cases, just a little prevention could stop most drainage problems in the home before they become catastrophic. The a very thing that one can do to prevent clogs is simply installing a screen over the drain in the kitchen sink or bathroom sink, tub or shower. This will prevent hair and other foreign objects from going into the drain pipe. In the bathroom, one of the biggest culprits of drain clogs is hair. If the drain does not have a screen to catch the hair, over time it will build up into something resembling a small mammal and choke off the drain completely. Drain screens can be purchased at any hardware or big box department store. Installation takes just a few minutes.
To ensure that the drain in the kitchen or sink remains clog free, do not wash large food items down the drain. Remove larger pieces of food from the plates and other dishes before rinsing them and never pour grease down the drain. Grease can build up over time and the pipe opening will get smaller and smaller until it plugs up completely.
At least once a day, one should boil a small sauce pan of water and then pour it into the kitchen sink to keep it free of grease build- up and other clinging debris. Pouring baking soda and vinegar down all the drains in the home at least once a month will keep them clean and odor free.
In the bathroom have family members wipe down the sink, tub or shower after each use. A lot of the hair will be removed and therefore will not go into the drain on the next use. Teach family members that this is the last thing to do before leaving the bathroom. Good habits are hard to break.
If after these tips a clog still occurs, plunging the drain or using a commercial drain opener will usually move the clog along and open the pipe. If this doesn’t work, one should call a professional plumber like those at Greenway Home Services. Greenway excels at drain opening and plumbing repairs and will have the necessary tools like a pipe snake on the truck. They can even replace the pipe if it is old and corroded and all the plunging and snaking in the world will not open it up.
