  • Don’t put bricks in the toilet tank

Some claim that adding a brick to the toilet tank would help you save water; however, doing so may prevent your toilet from emptying properly. Additionally, the bad news is that liquid drain cleaners erode away at the pipes. Use a toilet auger, which costs $30, or a plunger.

  • Don’t use your pipes as hangers

Another thing that plumbers never do is hang things over the pipelines. Why? Well, the answer is simple: no matter how light or small the item you want to hang is, most probably, in due time, the pipes will break and the flood will happen.

  1. For excess grease after cooking save and use your old paper coffee cups instead of a jar or plastic. Freeze the grease then dispose in garbage on morning of garbage collection. I do this with many of old cooking liquids and in summer chicken and meat bones
