š” Tip of the Week:
How to Plunge Like a Champion

If youāre going to do it, do it right:
-
š Donāt use a kitchen sink plunger on a toilet (and vice versa, yikes).
-
šØ Create a seal and plunge straight up and down, no side splashes, please.
-
š«§ Add a little dish soap & hot water first, it helps loosen clogs.
-
š§» If it hasnāt worked after 10 good plungesā¦Ā call us, not the emergency room.
Bonus points: Keep a dedicated plunger for each bathroom. No one likes a cross-contaminator.

-
Flushing wipes labeled āflushable.āĀ Theyāre not. Ever.

Pouring bacon grease down the sink.Ā You monster.
