Smile Heating & Cooling Inc. The Ultimate Guide to Unclogging Your Drains | Page 11

DO’S AND DON’TS
The Do’s
 Use an effective strainer to help you trap materials that will block your drain. You can buy the
accessory from any store that deals with plumbing and heating accessories.
 Clean the drain stoppers regularly. You need to clean the feature each time you use your bathtub. Since
it’s used to trap debris, some may find their way into the drain if you don’t remove them in time.
 Have a routine maintenance program for your drains. This also brings us to the idea of visiting a
plumbing and heating company for expert help. If your drains are regularly checked by an expert, it’s
easier to avoid the repairs.
 Flush salt followed by hot water at least once a month into your kitchen sink to prevent blockage.
