Drain Cleaning Tips

Most drain clogs are caused by the gradual accumulation of organic matter — like hair, grease and food — on the inside walls of drainpipes. Over time, this build-up slows the normal flow of water through the pipe, sometimes stopping the flow altogether.

Cooking grease, soap scum, lint and hair combine to create the perfect storm of drain-clogging, flow-slowing, sink-smelling and bacteria-breeding nuisance.

Prevention is your best line of defence against household clogs. Installing a drain strainer in sinks, baths and showers will go a long way to prevent drain build-up.

Add a capful of Mr Muscle® drain cleaner to your drains each month as another preventative measure to keep blockage at bay.
