It's crucial to keep in mind that your sink is designed for draining liquids, not solids. To prevent future blockages, it's essential to resist the urge to dispose of the following down your plughole:
-
Tissues (including toilet tissue)
-
Food particles (even small bits like carrot or pet food)
-
Cotton wool and cotton buds
-
Cigarettes and cigarette ash
-
Paper, plastic, and cardboard (including straws)
-
Large quantities of fat (such as chip fat)
In essence, if it's not a liquid, it should not go down your plughole. Opting for prevention is the most effective way to maintain clean drains and ensure a healthy drainage system.
What sinks can be blocked?
Various sinks in both residential and commercial settings are susceptible to blockages, depending on their usage and the type of materials that pass through them. Here are some common types of sinks that are often prone to blockages:
Kitchen Sinks
Kitchen sinks are frequently exposed to food particles, grease, cooking oils, and other debris. Over time, these substances can accumulate and lead to blockages.
Bathroom Sinks
Bathroom sinks are prone to blockages caused by a buildup of toothpaste, soap scum, hair, and other personal care products.
Utility Room Sinks
Sinks in utility rooms, where laundry activities take place, may encounter blockages due to lint, detergent residue, and other materials from clothing.
Outdoor Sinks
Sinks located outdoors, such as in garden areas or utility sinks, may be exposed to soil, leaves, and other debris, contributing to potential blockages.
Bar Sinks
In commercial settings like bars, sinks may accumulate blockages from drink residues, fruit peels, and other materials.
Pet Washing Sinks
Sinks used for pet washing can be prone to blockages caused by fur, pet hair, and soap residues.
Commercial Kitchen Sinks
Large commercial kitchen sinks can experience blockages due to the high volume of food particles, grease, and cleaning agents.
Regular maintenance, cautious use, and adopting preventive measures can help mitigate the risk of blockages in these sinks. It's important to be mindful of what goes down the drains to maintain a healthy drainage system.
