Thanksgiving is tomorrow and Christmas is only 35 days away. People all around the US are doing last minute food shopping for the holiday and getting their dinner menu’s finalized. If you didn’t already know, Thanksgiving is the #1 holiday for plumbers, and the day after is their busiest day of the year! Be mindful of what you put down your kitchen sink as it’s not meant to handle everything! We pour more grease, food, and liquid down our drains during Thanksgiving than ever, with Black Friday being the biggest day of the year for not only retail establishments but also plumbers!
Rather than waiting for a disaster to happen, be proactive this year and have some Roto-Rooter products on hand. My solution for not only clogged drains but also for keeping my pipes clean and clear is Roto-Rooter! I keep a good supply of Roto-Rooter Clog Removing and Roto-Rooter Build-Up Remover products under my sink and use them on a regular basis, just to make sure everything is in order. I don’t want an issue with my pipes while my family and friends are visiting. That is so embarrassing.
Here are a few tips to help you keep your pipes in order:
- Never pour fats or cooking oils down drains. They solidify in pipes. Instead, wipe grease from pots with paper towels and throw in trash.
- Avoid putting stringy, fibrous or starchy waste in the garbage disposal.
- Make sure the disposal is running when you put food into it. Don’t wait until it’s full to turn it on.
- For homes hosting weekend guests, it’s a good idea to wait 15 minutes between showers so slow drains have time to do their job.
- Never flush cotton balls, swabs, hair or facial scrub pads down a toilet. They don’t dissolve and will cause clogs.
Even if you don’t have a clog, it’s imperative that you take preventive measures and regularly use Roto-Rooter’s clog remover to keep your pipe clogs at bay.
Make your holidays more fun by not having to deal with clogs.
