Your home's drainage system relies on gravity to move water through the house and out the exterior drain. Waste and dirty water are piped through a "Soil Stack", which usually leads to a central drain beneath the home.
With daily use, the pipelines become clogged with scum, hair, grease, and other detritus, which cover the opening. This can be time-consuming and expensive to repair. With regular cleansing and inspection, it is possible to increase the drain pipes' durability and functionality.
Two to three times per year, use baking soda and vinegar to cleanse the drain. Use hot water to flush the drain. With the hot water, pour 1/2 cup of baking soda and 1/2 cup of vinegar down the drain. This combination foams and removes debris while also killing bacteria and eliminating odours.
Drainage maintenance involves maintaining ditches, culverts, and other drainage structures clean and ready to carry the following flow of water and removing sediments deposited during heavy flow periods. This ensures the road's specified service life is achieved.
