BATHROOM PLUMBING MYTHS AND HACKS



You believed your parents when they told you that if you swallowed gum, it can stay in your stomach for seven years and that you need to wait at least an hour after eating before going swimming. Here are some bathroom plumbing myths that you need to forget and useful bathroom cleaning tips you can follow.

Bathroom Plumbing Myths

These myths about the bathroom are worth looking into:

Toilet water drains in a different way depending on where you are located in the world.

False. The flow of toilet water from the bowl depends more on how the jets spray than it does on whether you’re in the northern or Southern hemisphere.

This myth is based on the Coriolis effect. It refers to the way that Earth’s constant, counterclockwise rotation affects the trajectory of moving objects. However, the Earth doesn’t spin fast enough to have any effect on your toilet water. The Australians’ toilet water doesn’t spin in the opposite direction to ours.

There’s a chance you could find a snake in your toilet

True. Although it is extremely rare, snakes have been reported to have entered toilets. They will always seek out dark places to hide and food sources. Although snakes can get into homes through broken sewer pipes, it is very unlikely that they will be found in your toilet.

Flushable wipes are safe for your plumbing

False. For baby wipes, cleaning wipes, and adult bathroom wipes, pre-moistened wipes are common. Although the packaging says they can be flushed down the toilet, plumbing contractors warn that these wipes could cause serious backups in your sewage line.

Plumbing Tips: How To Clean Your Bathroom

These are some amazing bathroom hacks you should try!

Clean Your Toilet Brush

How many of us use a toilet brush to clean our toilets and then slip the brush back into the holder? Yuck!

To rinse the brush, run clean water over it. Then close the lid and cover the handle with a towel to allow it to drip into the toilet bowl.

To keep your toilet brush clean, you can add white vinegar and water to the holder.

Keep Your Shower Clean

Next time you take a bath, look at the showerhead. It’s probably not as clean and tidy as it should be.

In a microwave, heat white vinegar and a few teaspoons of dish soap. To get rid of the grimy buildup, pour it into a spray bottle.

Dryer sheets are more than just for laundry. Dryer sheets do double duty when you add water. They can be used to remove soap scum from your tub or shower or to restore the shine of chrome fixtures.
