It's that time of the year! Be sure you are avoiding the clog by trashing the FOG to help keep your holidays merry and bright! Fats, oils, and grease belong in the trash, not down your sink! #plumbing #fatsoilsgrease #protectyourpipes #HolidaySeason #HappyHolidays

Having guests over this holiday season? Remind them what not to flush! Here, you can see that toilet paper is the only product to break down completely. Other paper products will cause significant clogs & damages to your #plumbing & the #sewer system. #Flushables #Wastewater

This weekend is a perfect time to clean your aerators! Use an old toothbrush to loosen any deposits. Or, fill a small plastic bag with white vinegar & place over the aerator. Secure with a rubber band & leave overnight. Remove in the morning & run water to let deposits flow out.
