Many individuals think pouring oil or grease in their drain is fine, as it may flow down. Oil or grease is liquid, making it easy to flow down the drain, but flushing it in your drain has various adverse effects. Pouring these substances down your drain leads to clogging, which you may hardly notice in the first stages. Statistics reveal that grease is responsible for causing 47% of sewage overflow blockages. After pouring in, grease and oils start building up in your drain pipe. The build-up leads to coats or clogs inside the pipe. Despite the initial stages not being problematic, the clogged pipes and drains become a huge problem later. Thus, it’ll be wise to think of safer disposal of these semi-liquids.
