What your home can expect from you Should the drain from a tub, toilet, sink, or shower clog, you may attempt to relieve it by use of a plunger. If the plunger does not work, a plumbers snake should be used to determine if a fixture or trap is blocked versus a system failure. Avoid disposal of paper towels, heavy tissue, sanitary products, wipes, and other such materials into plumbing fixtures in order to minimize the possibility of clogging. Each plumbing fixture in your home has a drain "trap," a piece of drain pipe designed to provide a water barrier between your home and the possible odor of sewer gas. If the fixture is left unused, it should be turned on at regular intervals to replace evaporated water and to ensure the trap barrier remains intact. What is covered by the warranty
