Thanksgiving is only 2 days away. It is a time to be thankful for all we have. We are very grateful to be able to serve our customers over the years. Today we would like to talk about plumbing. Some of you may have seen our post on facebook regarding using your garbage disposal wisely. Its worth repeating here.
- Don’t fill the garbage disposal completely before turning it on.
- Don’t use the garbage disposal for grease, fat or oil.
- Don’t grind up fatty, starchy or stringy foods. This includes celery, chicken or turkey skins and basically any part of the potato.
- Use a sink strainer to prevent food from going down the drain. This prevents clogs and also stops little utensils from going down the drain.
It's really good advice. Another thing to remember is to avoid pouring bacon grease or any grease for that matter. It may disappear from your sight but it hardens almost immediately inside the pipes. Keep doing this and it will build up and eventually clog.
