Plumbing Mistakes To Avoid
Plumbing problems always seem to pop up at the most inconvenient times. Fortunately, there are steps you can take to prevent plumbing problems. Be sure to avoid the common plumbing mistakes listed below.
Flushing Foreign Objects Down The Toilet
The only two things that should ever make their way down the toilet are toilet paper and human waste. If you have children, this is not always the case. Be sure to remind your children that other objects do not belong in the toilet bowl.
Using the Garbage Disposal As A Trash Compactor
After you’ve had a long, filling dinner, the last thing you want to do is the dishes. Nonetheless, you find yourself with soap and a sponge in hand. It can be tempting to toss leftover food scraps into the garbage disposal. Resist the temptation! Your garbage disposal does not work like a trash compactor does. Food particles, oil and grease can create a clog.
Putting Weight On Your Plumbing Fixtures
Placing a shampoo rack on your showerhead seems like a good idea. However, putting extra weight on top of your plumbing fixtures is never a good idea. In fact, it can actually cause the shower head to break.
