Tips and helpful hints:

Run the hot water in the kitchen sink before you start the dishwasher. This saves energy on heating the water and will clean your dishes better!

To help prevent clogs, fit all your tubs and shower drains with a strainer that catches hair and soap chips, and clean the strainer regularly.

Don’t rinse fats or cooking oils down the kitchen sink. Liquid fats solidify in the cold pipes and create clogs.
