Tips to keep your drains clog free

Are a couple of drains in your London home blocked? Well, if they are then you will be glad to know that you have nothing much to worry about because for clearing a blocked drain London is actually a very good place since it is home to many established plumbing companies. However, you need to understand that plumbing services are not light on the pocket and therefore you should always know of ways in which you can prevent the clogging of drains. Here are some handy tips.
Firstly, always make sure that you do not pour cooking grease down your kitchen drain. Cooking grease settles on the sides of the pipes and traps food particles and bits and this leads to clogging of the drains. So, pour cooking grease in used cans and dispose them.
Second, flushing the disposal is very important. If the plumbing system in your house is equipped with garbage disposal, you should run ample cold water to remove the food bits from the pipes. If water is not run liberally every time you use the disposal, food particles will stick to the sides of the pipes and result in clogging.
Once a week you should pour boiled water down the pipes. This will dislodge the soap and grease in the pipes and ensure that they do not clog.
Stoppers need to be cleaned once every week. Remove the pop up stoppers and sink stoppers and clean them thoroughly.

However, in spite of taking precautions if your drains get clogged, you can get in touch with 3Flow Plumbing & Heating. 3Flow offers its services across London and whether you are looking for a plumber south London or north London, 3flow will be at your service.
