When It Comes To Drains And Sewers…



‘Keep the water flowing’ is the secret of efficiently working drains and pipe lines. Clogged drains and sewer lines are clogged due to soap, hair, toilet tissue, other toiletries, liquids and most of the time food.

Some Do’s and Don’ts of drain cleaning:

DO NOT use drain cleaners available at local grocery stores as they are efficient only for slightly clogged drains, I call them a quick fix solution that lasts for about two days.

DO NOT drain vinegar and hot water down the drain though this is considered a great household tip for clogged drains. Vinegar being acidic simply disintegrates a part of the buildup and damages the pipes, replacement of it is a costly affair.

DO NOT attempt to snake the drains by yourself. The steel cable can cause damage to stuff around it and chances are there that you may get cut by it too. It may be cheaper to rent the snake, but you may end up paying more if the coil snaps and causes damage.

DO GET the sewer lines jetted by professionals, who normally use a camera to identify whether the clog is in the drain or the sewer line and the treatment that is required.

DO GET the drains snaked by professionals for removing debris or any other material that prevents the free flow of the water.

Drains and sewer lines can get clogged in commercial as well as residential establishments. Plumbing and sewer cleaning services are offered by established companies offered drain and plumbing solutions. Leading companies like Dynamerican offer plumbing and drain solutions that are carried out by experts trained in the field to handle all drain and sewer issues.

Commercial drain cleaning involves grease removal and heavy drain cleaning. This is carried out with hi-tech equipments like high pressure Jetters and maxliner systems. Residential drain cleaning usually involves jetting the clogged food build up, clogging due to toiletries. Blockage due to roots in the pipe is the biggest cause of drain/sewer blockage.

Well established and reputed plumbing solution companies make use of CCTV to identify the exact location and cause of the blockage. Regular cleaning and maintenance of the drain lines is the best way to prevent huge costs.  Clogged drains are a major cause of health hazards.

How to prevent sewer line clogging:
  • Throw toilet wastes like toilet paper, tampons, etc. in the waste basket and not flush it down
  • Prevent kids from dropping toys into the toilet
  • Do not dispose solid wastes into the floor drain as the debris clog the sewer lines and cause overload on the plumbing system
  • Do not drain kitchen wastes like fats, oils, vegetables into the drain. Collect and dispose them in the trash bins. When food accumulates in the drain pipes, not only does it clog but gives out a foul odor too
