Do not pour grease or fats down the drain.

Do not wash coffee grounds down the sink. Throw them out.

Use chemical cleaners sparingly, especially if you have metal pipes. Some chemical cleaners can cause metal pipes to corrode. We do not ever recommend using ANY chemical cleaners.

Some mild sodium hydroxide or sodium nitrate cleaners may be somewhat effective if used no more than once every few months but we do not recommend any brand of chemical drain cleaner, ever!

Some tub/shower and floor drains have strainers that are screwed into the drain opening. You can remove these and reach down into the drain with a bent wire to clear out any debris that has accumulated there.

Clean pop-up stoppers in the bathroom sink by lifting them out and rinsing them off on a weekly basis.

Remove the overflow plate on a tub and raise the pop-up assembly to reach the spring or rocker arm. Remove accumulated hair and rinse well.

Keep sewer pipes free of tree roots. If roots are a problem in your yard, fix your pipes or you can use an powerful electric auger to cut the roots out of your pipes. This should be done once a year or so. If you have roots in your drain line we believe it is "best" to hire a professional.

We think using a bacteriological and environmentally safe drain cleaner is the best option for drain maintenance:

Roebic K-67 Bacterial Drain and Trap Cleaner
Add bacteria to reopen drains and traps clogged by grease, soap and food particles. Use as a monthly treatment all over the house to keep sinks, tubs and showers open and flowing smoothly.

New larger size! - 40oz Roebic K-67 = $14.95
or buy a case (12ea 40oz bottles) only = $149.95
