Unclogging Clogged Drains

How Clogs Happen

Clogged drains can be caused by a variety of factors, including:

• Hair and soap scum buildup in pipes
• Grease and food particles accumulation
• Large objects or debris entering the drain
• Age and wear and tear on pipes

Removal Methods

A combination of methods can be used to unclog drains, including:

1. Using a plunger or snake to break up blockages
2. Using baking soda and vinegar to dissolve mineral buildup
3. Screwing the drain shut and letting hot water flow through it
4. Baking in a microwave-safe container with vinegar for 2-3 hours

Prevention Tips

Regular maintenance and prompt attention to clogged drains can help prevent them from occurring in the first place:

• Run hot water through the drain while it's being used to clear blockages
• Use a drain screen or filter to catch hair and other debris before they go down the drain
• Don't let grease and food particles accumulate in the drain
• Consider installing a drain maintenance tool, such as an auger or drain snake
