How Can I Avoid Clogs?

Blockages are common in aging pipes, especially if they’re not properly maintained with yearly cleanings. 

However, you can prevent or minimize clogs by throwing these items away instead of down your drains:

• Coffee grounds
• Grease
• Fat and oil
• Leftover food scraps
• Bones or fruit pits’
• Hair
• Feminine hygiene products
• Dental floss
• “Flushable” wipes
• Soap scum

If your kitchen has a garbage disposal, using it as a catch-all for the unwanted materials in your sink can be tempting. However, these materials harm your pipes over time as they can solidify, get stuck, rot, and eventually block your drain entirely. Don’t overestimate the ability of your garbage disposal; if you’re unsure if you can drain it, throw it out, because it’s better to be cautious than regretful.

Many wipes are marketed as “flushable,” but often, these materials don’t deteriorate fast enough and will still get caught up in your pipes with other materials like hair or soap scum. Use hair catchers and drain covers to limit dental floss, hair, soap scum, or jewelry from accidentally falling down your drains. Feminine hygiene products should also never enter your plumbing system.
