HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!!

It’s been a great year at Russo Bros. & Co. and we would like to wish all of our friends good health, prosperity and peace in the coming year.

Thank you all.

Even pipes outside of the home can clog

• Leader drains remove rain water from your gutters and deposit it away from the home. Many a flooded basement was caused by a clogged leader drain.
• Keep the sewer pipes from the house free of tree roots that may invade them. If roots are a particular problem in your yard, you may need to call in professionals once a year or so to clear the pipes. Russo Bros. & Co. is equipped with electric augers capable of cutting tree roots from pipes.
• Flush the drain-waste and vent systems whenever you go up onto your house roof to clean out downspouts or gutters. Run water from a garden hose into all vents, giving them a minute or two of full flow.

Keep those bathroom drains clear and clog free;

Last week we looked at keeping the kitchen sink drain lines clear. Now lets look at some tips to keep your bath drains clear:

• Clean pop-up stoppers in the bathroom sink and the tub regularly. Lift out sink pop-ups once a week and rinse them off.
• Tired of standing in water when you take a shower? Every few months, remove the overflow plate on a tub and pull up the pop-up assembly to reach the spring or rocker arm. Remove accumulated hair and rinse thoroughly.
• Treat the sink and tub/shower drain lines monthly with an organic drain cleaner such as Drain Maid™ featuring BioSmart®.

Tips to keep your kitchen and floor drain lines clear:

• Don't pour grease down the kitchen sink.
• Don't wash coffee grounds down the sink. Throw them out.
• Clean floor drain strainers. Some tubs, showers, and basement floor drains have strainers that are screwed into the drain opening. You can easily remove these strainers and reach down into the drain with a bent wire to clear out accumulated debris. And be sure to scrub the strainer.
• Treat slow drains with an organic drain cleaner such as Drain Maid™ featuring BioSmart®.
