Simple Plumbing Care Tips to Costly Repairs

Noisy pipes, leaks, clogged drains. All of these
need fixing and unless you can do it yourself, it
will cost you money. But did you know that you
can avoid these problems by simple preventive
measures? Do the following at home and you can
prevent your pipes from rust, clogs, andcracking
3
Dont pour oil, fat, or grease down your sink.
This is one of the major causes of clogs. When
you pour them down your drain, they form a
build-up on the insides of your pipe. That
build-up thickens and traps the little bits of
whatnot that goes down your drain.
4
Then one day youll just be surprised that
theres a pool of dishwater in your sink,
refusing to go down. If you think that a bottle
of drain cleaner will do the trick, yes, youre
right. Thats a quick fix and that will also
corrode your pipes,
5
leading to more problems in the long run. So,
whats the right solution? Prevention. Dont pour
any non-water-soluble liquids down your
drain. Keep your septic tank in good condition.
Hire a professional to flush your septic tank
every five years.
6
Although this will cost you money, this will
prevent sewage backup and prevent damage.
Moreover, flushing your septic costs a lot less
than getting it repaired or replaced.Dont use
harsh chemicals to clean or sanitize your toilet.
7
Although this will get the job done in a jiffy,
this can damage your pipes or weaken the rubber
hose in your toilet. So, try to use natural
cleaning agents on your toilet. The combination
of baking soda and lemon works as good as any
toilet stain remover. It smells fresh and nice,
too.
8
If you have a garbage disposal system, run it
regularly. This will prevent corrosion and keep
moving parts functioning smoothly. Also, let cold
water run while youre using it. This will keep
the blades clean. During cold weather, keep
pipes from freezing by exposing them to the warm
air inside your home.
9
Open your cabinets and cupboards so that warm air
will be able to reach them. Also, open your
faucets and let a little amount of water
continuously flow. Believe it or not, this will
keep your pipes from freezing.
