How do you know if your AC drain line is clogged?

• <div><p>If your drain line is clogged, your AC might stop cooling, shut down, or refuse to turn on at all. Otherwise, you might see your <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/why-is-my-ac-leaking.htm">AC leaking water</a>, find standing water or water damage near the unit, or notice a musty smell coming out of your air conditioner or vents.</p></div>

Do leach field additives work?

• <div><p>Some homeowners use additives every month to help septic system performance, but according to the <a href="https://www.epa.gov/septic/frequent-questions-septic-systems">U.S. Environmental Protection Agency</a>, the effectiveness of septic system and leach field additives is unknown. Further, additives made with organic solvents or alkali chemicals can actually be harmful to the necessary bacteria in a septic system.</p></div>

How do I empty a washing machine drain?

• <div><p>If your washing machine drain is clogged, that isn’t a good sign. Unlike toilet drains or kitchen sink drains, there isn’t matter that is easily broken up with a plumbing snake, and more care is required. If you’re in an old house or have mineral-rich water, there could be a buildup inside the pipe. Either way, if the blockage isn’t obvious and doesn’t dislodge with a snake, you need to call a pro—otherwise, you risk damaging integral plumbing. </p></div>

Q: Is hiring a drain cleaner worth it?

• <div><p>Yes, hiring a drain cleaner is worth it, especially when compared to the cost of not being able to use a sink, shower, toilet, or bathtub and the potential damage that flooding can cause in your home. You might try a temporary drain cleaning liquid or snaking it yourself, but if the clog is out of reach or these methods do not work, then hiring a professional drain cleaner is the way to go.</p></div>
