How can I prevent clogs in my kitchen sink?
Kitchen sink clogs are preventable! Here’s how to keep your drains flowing:
Never pour grease down the drain – It solidifies and creates blockages. Let it cool and throw it in the trash.
Use a sink strainer – Catches food particles before they go down.
Scrape plates into the trash first – Even with a disposal, large amounts of food cause problems.
Avoid these in the disposal: Coffee grounds, eggshells, pasta, rice, and fibrous vegetables like celery.
Run cold water while using the disposal – Helps solidify any grease so it gets chopped up.
Flush with hot water weekly – Helps clear any buildup in the pipes.
If your sink is already draining slowly, give us a call before it becomes a complete clog.
