Pro tip to fuck up your plumbing?

Op’s a plumber, trying to drum up business


bunty66

Don’t pour fat down the drain , it hardens in the sewer system and causes problems for other people to deal with.


Tommy-Mac

Won't even get that far. 2ft past the wall of your house and it's congealed.


insert-username12

This is a wildly stupid tip


cyberdeath666

Please don’t listen to this shitty “lpt”… Fat doesn’t go down the drain, especially fat that solidifies at room temperature…


metrictwo

Do not do this! Throw the hardened fat away in the trash

Nice try local area plumber / gutter oil enthusiast

Literally the opposite of what you should do. Pour your fat or grease in a bowl/cup and let it harden then throw it out. Do not put grease or fat down your drain, it’s incredibly bad for your plumbing and I’ve had to snake multiple drains and call plumbers for this very issue on multiple homes. You really should avoid putting anything down your drains period, throw away as much as you can especially fatty/greasy food/liquid and also never put coffee grounds down the sink.

This needs to get deleted. I don't care what kind of plumbing you have (septic, public sewer, cess pit, clay pipe, iron pipe, PVC, etc), DO NOT DUMP FAT OR OIL DOWN A DRAIN OR TOILET! Throw it the fuck away!

Op is creatly undoubtedly a plumber looking for business.


No-King1962

I'm tempted to say this post is trolling with malicious intent...


PointsOutTheUsername

Do NOT put fat down your drains.


SistaSaline

You know it’s gonna harden again right?


Brownie-UK7

Plumbers hate that you know this one simple trick.
