I Wish you Wouldn’t do That!

Do I sound like your mother now?  It’s just that plumbers from coast to coast urge you not to do some of the things that you do to your toilet in an attempt to fix it.  So, your toilet’s clogged again, and this time it’s all your fault.  You did what?  You flushed kitty litter down there?  Don’t be embarrassed.  You are not the first nor will you be the last to do so.

Here are some things that we wish you would NOT do –

1.  Reach for the Drano.  It rarely works in situations like this.

2.  Don’t treat your toilet like a garbage can.

3.  Do not use drop-in toilet fresheners.  They contain chemicals that wear out the tank.

4.  You think that you are a licensed plumber.
