Causes of Clogged Drains
We’ve all had to deal with clogged drains sometimes; they’re a hassle and sometimes even over-the-counter drain cleaners can’t get the job done. Here are the common causes of clogged drains and how to deal with them.
- Hair
- Tree root invasion
- Coffee grounds down the drain
- Putting cooking grease down the drain
- Non-flushable items flushed down the toilet
- Mineral buildup
The key to dealing with clogged drains is to prevent them from happening. You can use metal strainer filters in the kitchen to catch food debris. Also, try dumping cooking grease and coffee grounds in the trash instead of the sink. Only use flushable toilet paper in the toilet too. If you still have a stubborn clog, call a professional drain cleaning company for help.
Is Your Water Heater Failing?
Most homeowners think little about their water heaters until it stops working, then it’s panic time as they scramble to get a replacement. Fortunately, most hot water heaters give warning signs they’re about to fail and here’s what to watch out for.
- Lukewarm water
- Leaky pressure valve
- Rust-colored or cloudy water
- Strange noises such as banging or clanging in the tank
If you notice any of these signs, call a hot water heater maintenance professional ASAP to get it fixed before it fails.
