Nothing stalls a kitchen quicker than a clogged drain, and procrastinating on clearing it out will only make it a bigger problem in the long run. However, there are quite a few things that can be done to prevent clogged drains in the first placefor example, never ever pour cooking grease, coffee grounds, lotions, creams, or liquids down the drain. Here are a few more tips from Mumz Cleaning Service, a trusted Monmouth home cleaning service, on how to keep drains running clear and easy.

  • Boiling Water: Running hot water down the sink after every use can keep oils from food from building up on the inside of pipes.
  • Baking Soda or Vinegar: Both baking soda and vinegar are terrific natural cleaning agents: baking soda is excellent at absorbing odors, and vinegar contains acetic acid which will remove build up in pipes. About a quarter of a cup of baking soda followed by hot water can help clear drains; likewise, one cup of vinegar poured down the drain followed by very hot water 30 minutes later can do wonders.
  • Use Drain Stoppers: And keep them clean! Using a drain stopper in the kitchen or bathroom drain can keep detritus from cooking or shaving from falling down the drain in the first place. However, drain stoppers have to be cleaned regularly themselves.
