Never Treat Your Pipes With Harmful Chemicals

Our sewer system is connected to our intricately woven plumbing system below and throughout our home. The pipes in our home are not unlike the circulatory system in our bodies. In order for blood and water to flow properly it needs to be unimpeded by any foreign objects that don't belong in the system.

Unlike our bodies, the quick fix for clogs in most households is Drano, Liquid Fire, or some similar product. While it may clear the blockage in your pipe, it can also eat right through your pipes, walls, ceilings, and a plumber's protective gear, in addition to contaminating ground water. Never treat your pipes with harmful chemicals.

If you have low blood pressure you might be inclined to visit a doctor. You should do the same for your pipes. Don't live with low water pressure. Let our competent professionals come out and evaluate your home's plumbing system. DIY fixes that you see online may seem quick and easy, but you really could be doing more harm than good to the lifeblood of your home. 

Treat your home to a check up today with one of our knowledgeable and affordable plumbers. We will evaluate the quality of your current system and do everything to make it as efficient as possible. Contact Chicago area Morning Noon and Night Plumbing at 773-880-0072 for assistance.

  1. Thanks for all the advice. I'm moving and was going to try to clean the sink with some stuff that might not be good for the pipes and then I would have to pay for plumbing in Mississauga, so I'm glad I saw this.

  2. I am totally agree with you. chemical cleaners dissolves the materials of pipes. These chemicals can be dangerous as they are generally skin irritants and can cause serious burns or blindness also, So my suggestion is do not use these chemical if you have any plumbing problems contact experts only.
