There are many things that can clog up the drains in your house. Today we’re looking at the number one source of clogs coming from your kitchen – grease and fat.
We’ve all been there – we’ve pan-fried a burger or made a big batch of bacon, and we’re in a hurry so we just throw the dirty pan in the dishwasher and call it a day. Or we think that pouring greasy food remains into the garbage disposal is a good idea. Or, if we hand wash dishes in the sink, we think that the dish soap will take care of all the grease (note – it does not).
The problem is many of the fats we use in the kitchen are solid at room temperature (like butter and other animal fats). So, while they may enter your drains as a melted liquid, they’ll cool down and start to solidify and build up along the walls of your drains. And, like when this happens to your arteries, your drains will get blocked and bad things will happen (ranging from slow drains to sewage backup to burst pipes).
Luckily, it’s easy to keep grease and fat out of your drains.
