Chemical drain cleaners might seem like an easy solution for clogged pipes, but they often do more harm than good. These products contain harsh chemicals that can corrode your pipes, leading to costly repairs over time. They also pose health risks, emitting toxic fumes and causing skin or eye irritation if mishandled. Additionally, chemical cleaners are harmful to the environment, contributing to water pollution. Instead of relying on these quick fixes, opt for safer alternatives like a plunger, drain snake, or natural solutions such as baking soda and vinegar. For persistent clogs, trust the experts at My Plumber Kelowna to provide safe, effective, and environmentally-friendly solutions.
