Can I use "Drano"?

Can I use "Drano"?

People ask me this all of the time. Can I blame them? Not at all.

Clogged drains are not full of unicorns and rainbows. They are full of dirt, grease, lint, old soap and hair. (Yuck.) We would all just rather pour down a bottle of "Supper Dupper Plumbing Drain Bubbles" and call it good. But here is the problem with that. These types of liquid drain cleaners can offer only temporary relief and permanent damage. They use poisonous chemicals to burn holes in the gunk and sometimes in your pipes!

But if you do feel like you must have a new bottle of "Plumbers Little Magic Drain Helper" from aisle 7 in the supermarket, then make sure to read the label first. If it says it can burn your skin or eyes then you want to keep it away from your drains.

Other more permanent and safer solutions for drain cleaning are mechanical cleaning equipment, hydro scrubbing and natural drain safe treatments.

Good luck with your slow drains. If you find any mythical creatures in your drain make sure to let us know. But if the nasty gunk is to much to handle you can let us know too. We are here to help. 928-774-4357 (HELP).
