You demand a lot out of your plumbing system daily. Your drains are responsible for quickly moving clean and dirty water to and from your home. To protect these drains, you may want to install a drain stopper in every drain in your home. These stoppers prevent the risk of blockage, saving you money in the long run.
Why You Need Drain Stoppers
The most common drain issues at Premier Plumbing are blockages in the drain, leaving the bathtub/shower, or the kitchen drains. A drain stopper is the easiest way to stop large waste from entering your drain system. Drains that need stoppers include:
- Kitchen sink- Even if you are someone who scrapes your plates, the odds are that food waste, oils, and fats still make their way down your drain system. Even with the garbage disposal, certain foods can’t be adequately broken down and need to be in the trash.
- Bathtub and shower drain- Every time you bathe, you shed skin, hair, oils, and soap residue. Even short hair can build up over time, getting caught within your pipes. A drain stopper in your shower is the best way to prevent hair from getting into your drains and causing a severe clog.
- Bathroom sink- This is another area where you want to ensure you have a drain stopper. Many homeowners have a mirror in front of this sink. They use the sink to put makeup supplies, hair accessories, and other small pieces that could fall down a drain without a proper stopper.
