Drain Cleaning 101

Clogged drains can be frustrating, but don't worry! Here are some simple plumbing tactics to keep your drains flowing smoothly:

  1. Pour 1 cup of baking soda down the drain, followed by 1 cup of vinegar. Let it sit for a few hours or overnight, then rinse with hot water.
  2. Use a plunger to create suction and loosen any blockages in your pipes. Be sure to plunge in the direction of flow, not against it!

For more stubborn clogs, try using a drain snake or plumber's auger.

Water Hammer Reduction

  1. Use an air hammer or a ball bearing faucet aerator to reduce the pressure in your pipes.
  2. Install a cold-water shut-off valve near each fixture to prevent sudden releases of hot water when you turn it off.
