When you’re faced with slow-moving or clogged drains, it can be tempting to reach for store cleaners. However, the majority of products readily available on the shelves of the hardware or grocery store are potentially very bad for your plumbing. They work by way of chemical reactions that can be damaging to pipes and toxic to humans.

Effects of Chemical Drain Cleaners
The chemical reactions of harsh drain cleaners are meant to clear away blockages. However, that same reaction causes a lot of problems. Such as:
- The combination of chemicals in the cleaners and existing corrosion in pipes can actually burn holes
- Caustic chemicals remain in the pipes and continue generating heat that causes damage
- Toxic agents compromise older pipe joints and PVC connections
- Cause fractures that result in leaks
- Can lead to health issues from long-exposure
- Unpredictable reactions with cleaning products create toxic fumes
- Splashback can result in burns to the skin and eyes
- Seepage into the ground negatively impacts plants and trees
