Vactor Truck Facts

Morning Noon and Night plumbing has been serving the Chicago and Metro area with pride and professionalism. Our flat rat services are available to you 24 hours a day.

We offer standard residential pumping of catch basins, grease traps, restaurants, industrial, and parking lots. For maintenance or emergencies, we're here 24 hours a day --365 days a year.
That means, if you have a plumbing emergency, we live up to our name. We understand that catch basins and grease traps don't schedule their malfunctions. We're here to help. Call us any time for both residential and commercial plumbing services for a rate you can afford.

Beware of anyone that will clean catch basins by hand. If it truly needs cleaning it should be done with a pumper truck. Your basin is 2 feet deeper than the water level. As you can imagine, that would be impossible to do by crawling in and doing by hand! That's why we are equipped for all plumbing emergencies with a pumper truck or vactor truck - both of which we have!
Morning Noon And Night. We mean it.

Who To Call For 24 Hour Plumbing Service In Chicagoland.



At MNN Plumbing, we understand that your plumbing needs don't always occur between 9 and 5.


It's 3 a.m. and a pipe just burst. Is your current plumber going to take the call? Or, is he or she in a deep sleep, with zero intentions of plumbing until the next day. At MNN, we do get sleep, but in shifts. We make sure to have someone available to help you out in your emergency.


The last thing anyone wants is a downpour in their bedroom. When it happens, we frantically scramble around, not exactly what to do or whom to call. We try to stop the burst pipe with a hand towl or the nearest shirt. Quickly we realize our efforts are futile and we stand there soaked and confused. Put down the sopped shirt and pick up the phone. We will take that call. We will send one of our experts out expeditiously.

Plumbing emergencies don't schedule themselves. They show up unannounced and can do great damage to your home and bank account. You can't wait until 9 a.m. for service if your pipe bursts at 4 a.m. By then, you would have to paddle your way out.

Know this; Morning Noon and Night stands by our name and guarantee that we WILL be there for you 24 hours a day, seven days a week! We will take that call! So don't hesitate to pick up the phone anytime! From the smallest leak to the largest flood, we can handle it.

The Dangers Of Pouring Drano Down The Toilet Bowl

Drano down the toilet bowl??? No!!!!!!!

Most Plumbers preach against the use of Drano and other harmful chemicals that claim to unclog anything. In some cases, it can be very effective. But to what extent?

In the case of toilets, any chemical you put in the toilet is going to stay there for some time, since the bowl fills with water and is slow to drain without flushing, the chemicals can settle onto the porcelain. Plumbers will tell you this is a bad thing because the chemicals in Liquid Plumr and Drano can heat up while standing in the bowl. This can result in a few expensive scenarios. The harsh chemicals could possibly crack the bowl, meaning you will have to replace the entire commode. It is even possible for the concoction to explode, leading to replacement of fixtures, furniture, and perhaps walls in your bathroom. Both are much more expensive than calling a us to manually repair the clog.

If you have non-galvanized pipes from yesteryear, Drano will eat through them like a hungry shark. Your best bet when facing a clog is a plunger. Yep. Simple, but effective. If that doesn't work? Call Us! We will quickly identify the culprit and remove it while preserving your pipes and porcelain.

Fix Your Plumbing Issues Before The Holidays

If you're hosting Thanksgiving this year, here are some tips to avoid a visit from one of our friendly plumbers by following some of these clog prevention tips:
  • Never, ever pour fats and cooking oils down the drain. These items eventually solidify in your pipes. Once fats and oils are cool, wipe it away with a paper towel and throw it in the trash.
  • Steer clear of putting fibrous, starchy, or stringy food waste down the garbage disposal. Your garbage disposal is no match for foods like potato peels, asparagus, fruit rinds, and poultry skins and may result in a clog. 
  • Be sure to run the disposal while you're putting food into it. Never wait until it's bubbling over with water to turn it on.
  • If you're hosting overnight guests this holiday season, it's a good rule of thumb to wait at least 15 minutes between showers so slow drains have time to do their job.
  • At no time should cotton balls, swabs, or hair be flushed down the toilet. They don't dissolve and will cause eventually lead to a clog.
  • If you know your kitchen sink is acting up, or if you have a tub that takes forever to drain, try to address any plumbing problems before the holiday and before guests arrive. This can prevent a plumbing catastrophe. 
Have a Happy Thanksgiving and be sure to contact Chicago area Morning Noon and Night Plumbing at 773-880-0072 or online at www.morningnoonandnightplumbing.com for assistance with any of your plumbing needs.

How Often Should Catch Basins Be Pumped Out?

A catch basin is a drain located on your property, either in the front yard, backyard, or the gangway. Its sole purpose is to trap grease and debris before it enters the sewer pipe. Periodically, the catch basin will need to be pumped before debris and pollutants can clog the catch basin completely.

With the help of the state of the art features on our high powered pumper truck we're able to remove the grease and debris before or after you experience a clog. Eliminating grease and debris can prevent costly flood damage to properties. It also prevents pollution. As a rule of thumb, catch basins should be pumped once a year to keep everything flowing properly.

Prevent an emergency and call for catch basin pumping before it's a problem. Contact Chicago area Morning Noon and Night Plumbing at 773-880-0072 or online at www.morningnoonandnightplumbing.com.
