On January 30, the Dallas Morning News ran a piece on how to make sure your Super Bowl party doesn’t go down the drain, with the material for the article supplied by your friends at Ben Franklin Plumbing Dallas. We get a lot of calls for drain cleaning on Super Bowl Sunday as people across the area host game-watching parties in their homes. Here are some tips from the article to help make sure your drains survive without you needing expensive repairs from Ben Franklin Dallas.
Kitchen Tips
- Make sure your guests don’t pour fats, grease, large scraps of food or bones (yes, we’ve seen it happen) down your garbage disposal. When grease mixes with water, a major clog can result which will necessitate drain cleaning. And we don’t have to tell you what type of damage bones can do to your disposal.
- Make sure you and your guests use paper towels to wipe excess grease off of plates.
- Before and after you use your disposal, run water for a few seconds to help flush the line.
Bathroom Tips
- Tell your guests to use the trash can for items that shouldn’t be flushed. Not that they would try to flush scraps of food down the toilet, but you can’t be too careful.
- Stress that the bathroom is available for the whole game, and not just during halftime. That way your plumbing won’t be overloaded all at once.
- If you do have a problem, call an expert. Don’t try to use a plunger, because that could damage your pipes.
