Toilets, showers and tubs come with very common plumbing issues. Out of all the plumbing fixtures, the bathroom problems tend to be the most gross; therefor homeowners tend to avoid dealing with them, essentially making the problem even bigger and usually more expensive.
Being proactive can help elevate the usability of your bathroom. Here are some easy things you can do to be proactive.
Protect Your Drains
Use mesh drain covers on your sinks, tubs and showers to help catch particles that should not make it into your drain system. Common particles that wreak havoc on drains is hair and soap debris.
Stay Ahead of Clogs
Work some easy maintenance into your weekly cleaning schedule. Rinse the drains with hot water. When you see the drains are slow, use a snake tool to investigate. Avoid using chemical cleaners as they create problems rather than solutions.
Only Flush Toilet Paper
Toilet paper is the only thing that should ever be flushed in the toilet besides urine and feces. Always avoid flushing feminine hygiene products, including tampons, baby wipes or any other items no matter how small.
