If there’s one very important device in your home that you might not think about very often, there’s a good chance that it’s your drains. That’s probably because, most of the time, you don’t need to give your drains much attention. You turn on the faucet, water flows down the drain, and it’s gone. However, what do you do when your drain gets clogged?
Drain-Clogging Items
Many items that can be found near your showers, sinks, floor drains and toilets can lead to some frustrating blockages. Not to mention, these items can cause some especially frustrating blockages that call for emergency drain cleaning.
These items may include:
• Soap scum
• Bits of food
• Grease
• Tree roots
• Hair
• Paper towel
Most people typically are careful not to let the above items fall into our drains, but items like bits of food, grease and tree roots can build up in drains over time. If you have kids, they might have accidentally dropped foreign objects into your drain, as well.
So, you’re probably wondering at this point — how does one deal with a drain cleaning problem? Or better yet, how can one prevent their drains from becoming backed up in the first place? With drain cleaning solutions by Radiant Plumbing, of course!
