Boiling Water and Clogged Drains: When It Helps … and When It Hurts!

Описание: WAIT!!! You need to watch this before pouring boiling water down your drains or toilet to clear clogged plumbing! Doing so could cause major damage to your home’s pipes and plumbing fixtures!
Pouring a pot of boiling water down the drain is a fast, effective natural method to clear a clog, as it dissolves, melts or softens all that hair, makeup, toothpaste, mucus and other residue that comes off of or out of your body, backing up the sink, shower or bathtub. And doing so is generally fine if your home’s pipes are made of galvanized steel, copper or iron, which can withstand high temperatures without harm.
But if your home is plumbed with PVC pipes, you’ll want to refrain from bringing things to a boil. That’s because pouring boiling water down these plastic pipes could cause them to melt, warp and distort, or damage fittings and connections — all of which is likely to result in plumbing problems, leaks or even flooding.

And when it comes to your toilet — much like you should avoid pouring boiling water on your tea leaves, lest you scald them and burn the flavor out — you should never pour it in the potty either. Sudden, severe temperature changes are likely to crack your commode, which is brittle — they don’t call it the porcelain throne for nuthin’!
