When you think of your plumbing system, you probably think of the fixtures that allow you access to water, such as your sink faucets and your shower head. However, the side of your plumbing system responsible for the disposal of wastewater in a clean, hygienic and convenient manner is every bit as important as the potable water supply side. It really pays to ensure that your drain and sewer system is in fine working condition, and one of the best ways to do so is to schedule a professional drain cleaning service.
When to Schedule Professional Drain Cleaning
Ideally, you will schedule professional drain cleaning before your drains back up entirely. In order to do so, naturally, you must know some of the warning signs that drain cleaning is, in fact, necessary. Here are a few to keep your eyes out for.
- Slow moving drains, which will eventually become not-moving-at-all drains if the problem is allowed to persist.
- Gurgling drains, indicating that the water going down is encountering resistance of some sort.
- Foul smelling drains, suggesting that there is something therein which is growing rather putrid.
Why Is Professional Drain Cleaning Necessary?
While it is true that there are a number of different drain cleaning products available at your local hardware store, the fact of the matter is that these harsh, corrosive chemical cleaners are not as well-suited to the effective cleaning of drains as you might think. They may free up enough of a clog for the cleaner itself to squeeze past, for instance. However, the piece of the clog can regrow rapidly, leaving you with the same problem before long. Professional drain cleaning technicians, on the other hand, are equipped with the tools necessary for freeing your drains of a clog entirely, and we won’t have to dump a bunch of chemicals down your drain to get the job done right.
