The holiday season is here, bringing cheer, family gatherings, and delicious feasts. However, it can also bring unique plumbing challenges to your home. From overworked drains to unexpected leaks, Christmas can turn into a plumbing nightmare if you’re not prepared. In this festive blog post, we’ll share tips to keep your plumbing merry and bright this holiday season and how Liberty Drain Solutions is here to help Westchester County homeowners tackle any plumbing emergencies.
Top Holiday Plumbing Tips
Be Mindful of What Goes Down the Drain With big holiday feasts, your kitchen drain might take a beating. Avoid pouring grease, oil, or food scraps down the sink to prevent clogs. Use a strainer to catch debris and dispose of it in the trash.
Protect Your Garbage Disposal Avoid overloading your garbage disposal with fibrous foods like celery, potato peels, or coffee grounds. Run cold water while using the disposal to ensure smooth operation.
Prepare Your Guest Bathroom Extra guests mean more demand on your bathroom. Stock up on toilet paper, provide a trash bin, and remind guests not to flush anything other than toilet paper. Check for slow drains before they arrive.
Inspect for Winter Plumbing Issues Cold temperatures can lead to frozen pipes. Insulate exposed pipes and keep your thermostat consistent to avoid bursts. If you’re traveling, leave your heat on to prevent freezing.
Schedule a Pre-Holiday Plumbing Check-Up Avoid surprises during the holidays by scheduling a professional inspection with Liberty Drain Solutions. We’ll ensure your plumbing is in top shape before the festivities begin.
