Sometimes we don’t even think about why blockages occur so often or why water begins to flow more slowly.

But the reason may lie in improper operation.

Therefore, you need to know what you shouldn’t flush down the sink.

What should you pay attention to?

Face masks

It is especially important not to wash off alginate masks under any circumstances: clogging is guaranteed. But it is better to remove all other cosmetics yourself, and wash off only the remains that cannot harm the plumbing.

Oil

It is because of the oil residue that a serious blockage can form, and an unpleasant smell can appear from the sink. All the oil is drained into the urn.

Only after this can you start washing the dishes.

Coffee

If you like natural coffee, then its grounds should be thrown in the trash: otherwise the sink may get clogged. Therefore, first remove the grounds and only then proceed to washing.

The water is too hot

Sometimes you can hear that hot water can be poured into the sink: this is not true. Boiling water can damage the plumbing. Therefore, wait for the optimal temperature.
