Doing so will help keep clogs away and avoid costly repairs in the future. If you are not sure how to go about cleaning your drains don’t worry you are not the only one.

To clean your drains,  remove the stoppers throughout your home. Clean each one thoroughly, as food, soap scum, and hair can easily cling to stoppers and create problems.  Next, test each drain by running water to see if it drains slow or normal pace. If it is clear, you can use a clog prevention treatment for regular maintenance. If it is running slow you will need a more specific clog treatment to get whatever is in the drain to move through. Prevention on a monthly basis is key to clog free pipes. As you are continuing through this routine, be sure to clean all the drains in your home. There are a few that are easy to forget (laundry room drains, garage drains, guest bedroom drains). With these simple steps, your drains and pipes will remain clog free.
