As a homeowner, you will definitely have to go through the pain of having clogged drains. There are certain preventive measures that can be taken in order to prevent the problem from happening. You need to make sure that everything is working well on the incoming side but even more important than this is to ensure that things are working well on the outgoing side.
Besides taking all the preventive measure, if you still face the blockage problem in your drains, what are the possible options you have? You must have noticed at some point in time that hardware stores have a separate area reserved for the drain cleaning chemicals. Most of the people find it convenient to pour the chemical in the drain and get the job done without going through any hassle. But take a minute and think about how do these chemicals work? What do they do the things blocking the drain? The first answer that comes to your mind is that these chemicals eat away the substance clogging the drains and clear the way. In fact, these chemicals only make a small hole for the water to pass and the substances keep on depositing in the drain causing severe problem in the future. These chemicals are very strong. They not only cause damage to your skin, hand and eyes but also have a corrosive action on your drains.
Strong cleaning chemicals turn the plaque and hair deposited in the drains into a gel which is too sticky to be drained. Repetitive use of these strong chemicals also leads to the corrosion of pipes making holes through them. In this case the pipes have to be cut and replaced making the job even difficult for the plumber and putting a strain on your pocket. Thus the use of these drain cleaning chemicals should be avoided.
