What Drains Are in My Home?
All your home’s drains have the same function, and Mr. Rooter Plumbing of Rochester has in-depth expertise in all issues affecting them. Drains can clog for different reasons, so finding the best solution typically takes a plumbing professional. We've described various drains in your home and the reasons they clog:
- Bathroom Drains – The most common bathroom drain clog causes include soap, hair, and toothpaste. You can install simple drain covers to collect your loose hairs as they wash out during a shower. We also recommend running hot water when you brush your teeth to ensure your toothpaste doesn't harden in your pipes.
- Kitchen Drains – The main culprits clogging kitchen drains include oil, grease, and bits of food. When you clean your kitchen after a meal, these elements get washed down your drain. Oil and grease are especially harmful because they harden inside your pipes. While garbage disposal can reduce your chance of clogs, you should still avoid washing specific foods down your drain, including fibrous vegetables, meat, and bones.
- Floor Drains – Dust, dirt, and leaves typically clog floor drains around your home. These drains can be found in laundry rooms, basements, and garages. Clogged floor drains can lead to floor damage. While these drains are often out of sight, you should clean them regularly to minimize your chance of clogs.
- Laundry Tubs – These essential features in laundry rooms can experience clogs and backups like any other drain. The detergent, dirt, and fabric fibers can build up in your drain and slow or block water flow.
Helpful Tips on How to Fix Your Clogged Drain
One of the best starting points to identify a clogged drain is figuring out if your sink is draining. If you have a clogged drain, Mr. Rooter Plumbing of Rochester provides a list of simple ways to fix it:
- Let your sink drain while preparing a pot or kettle of hot water if it still has some water movement. Boiled water is an effective way to clear clogs due to hardened oils and fats. Carefully pour hot water into your drain after most or all the water drains. Be sure to schedule routine cleanings and inspections to ensure your pipes drain effectively.
- Another simple way to get rid of clogs is using a plunger and drain snake. Sink plungers are smaller and easier to manage, so you can use them to pull a clog close to the drain opening. You can use a drain snake to pull the material out of your pipe after plunging. It would be best to throw away that material in your trash instead of flushing it down your pipe.
- You can try clearing your drain with BioChoice®, an environmentally friendly drain cleaning solution. This cleaner is proven to resolve various types of clogs with less risk of damaging your pipes or impacting the environment.
- Calling a plumber is your next step if you still have a clog. An average drain snake cannot snag clogs that are too deep, including tree roots growing in your pipes and causing clogs. This clog type requires more extensive plumbing solutions.
