Easy Home Drain Maintenace



Clean, unobstructed drains make for happy homeowners.  There is nothing worse for a home than backed-up plumbing or clogged septic systems.  In order to ensure your home drains keep flowing freely, normal monthly maintenance should be done.  Here are some easy tips for your plumbing:

Keeping your drains flowing freely can be done inexpensively, using a mixture of 1/4 cup baking soda with 1 cup vinegar.  Once a month, apply this mixture followed by hot water to rinse it down, into each drain throughout the house.  If you have a septic tank, use a yeast or bacteria booster such as Rid-X once a month to keep the tank operating properly.

Doing this preventative maintenance will keep your home drains clean and in great operating shape.  It only takes a few minutes of your time, especially when you consider the consequences.
