Invest in the Right Equipment
To make your plumbing maintenance easier, you’ll need to invest in the right equipment. A good plunger can clear a clogged toilet or sink with ease. If you don’t have one already, this is the first tool you should purchase—it’s cheap and effective.
A water pressure regulator can prevent damage to your home by preventing excess pressure from damaging pipes or bursting them altogether. You don’t want to be sleeping when your pipes burst!
There are many tools that can help find leaks before they become major problems, including: water leak detectors or infrared cameras.These will help you pinpoint where in the house a leak may be coming from so that it can be fixed promptly before doing any damage (and saving yourself cash).
Clean Your Drains Regularly
One of the best ways to make sure your drains are working well is to clean them regularly. This can be done with a drain cleaner, which you can buy at most grocery stores and hardware stores. The other option is using a hand-operated snake or auger tool to remove hair, food particles and other debris that may be clogging up your drains. If you’re not in the habit of cleaning out your drains on a regular basis, then it’s time to start!
Don’t Flush Foreign Objects
It’s tempting to use items like paper and sanitary napkins for the toilet, but these things don’t dissolve in water. Instead of flushing them down the drain, throw them in the trash can.
The same goes for diapers and other objects that are hard to flush down the toilet. It’s best to put them in a plastic bag before placing them in your garbage can so they won’t clog your pipes when you’re taking out the trash later on.
Avoid Chemicals
Remember: Never pour chemicals down your drains! They can cause serious damage if they come into contact with metal or plastic piping inside your home’s plumbing system. And don’t pour grease down any drain; instead collect it with a grease trap or strainer first so it doesn’t flow into your sewage system. In addition, never flush anything other than food waste or toilet paper down your drains—the wastewater treatment facility cannot properly sanitize these materials after they’ve been flushed away from home!
The best way to avoid using harsh chemicals is not to use them at all. However, if you are going to use a chemical cleaner on your pipes, it’s imperative that you follow the directions carefully and make sure that the product is safe for use with PVC plastics.
