Preventing Drain Clogs

Preventing drain clogs just takes a little common sense.  Kitchen drain clogs are the most common.  Most often the clog is caused by a build up of grease that eventually traps food particles and slowly closes off the drain.  Proper disposal of kitchen waste will keep sink drain clogs to a minimum.  Never, ever put grease down the drain.  Don’t wash coffee grounds down the drain, throw them out.  Be sure to clean floor drain strainers on a regular basis.  Some tub, showers and basement floor drains have strainers that you can remove and rinse.  Good preventive maintenance practices can save you a call to the plumber.  If you ever need a plumber call:  De Hart Plumbing – serving Manhattan Kansas, Junction City Kansas and Wamego Kansas.
