Before you assume that you can just "flush it", consider how some items may or may not damage your commode! In case you do try to flush items that cause a blockage, AAA AUGER in San Antonio is happy to help clear up the plumbing at your place. Before you give us a call, remember these five items not to flush:

Diapers

It's not often that "flushers", aka sewer operatives, come across these but when they do, the blockages can be bad. Toss diapers in a diaper genie, dumpster or tie it up in a plastic grocery bag and toss it in the trash. Although used for waste, keep these out of the toilet!

Pets

We've all had to say goodbye to our dear fish or rodent friends, usually in the bathroom right before we respectfully flush them. You're better off saying a few kind words and tossing them in the trash or burying them outside because these critters can actually cause some problems in the pipes. It's best to keep your passed friends out of the toilet!

Cotton buds

Cotton can build up into ...
... balls and take months or even years to break down. They end up blocking drains, which may have to be unclogged by hand. Toss these in the trash!

Chemicals

When you're dealing with a clogged commode, AAA AUGER in San Antonio knows that you may turn to chemical cleaners to solve your plumber woes. While chemical cleaners may seem like an easy fix, they can actually cause harm to your home's plumbing. AAA AUGER plumbing recommends only using non-caustic additives.
