Q: Can you drain a water softener into a cleanout?

• <div><p>No. You should never directly drain a water softener into a sewer cleanout. This practice is illegal in many areas because it could allow raw sewage to get into your drinking water and make you seriously ill. Many places have codes requiring a specific seal, pipe, and a large air gap between a water softener and a sewage cleanout. Check out <a href="https://codes.iccsafe.org/content/FLPC2023P1/chapter-6-water-supply-and-distribution#FLPC2023P1_Ch06_Sec608.14.1">Florida's Plumbing Building Code</a> as an example of what these restrictions might look like. </p></div>

Q: Can pipes freeze in one night?

Well-insulated pipes might take longer to freeze, but you should follow local guidelines for preventing frozen pipes. How quickly your pipes can freeze can also depend on where you live and the type of pipes. </p></div>

Q: Can liquid drain cleaner make a clog worse?

• <div><p>A liquid drain cleaner can sometimes make a clog worse over time if you use it improperly or too much. The chemicals in drain cleaners can corrode and damage pipes, causing cracks and leaks that may cause further blockages. If the clog is more than the liquid drain cleaner can handle, the cleaner will simply add chemicals to a bigger overall problem.</p></div>

Q: How do you know if your toilet flange needs to be replaced?

• <div><p>A toilet flange secures your toilet in place to the floor, and connects your toilet to the drain pipe that carries its contents to the sewer. Obvious signs that your flange needs replacement include when it can&rsquo;t keep up with these two functions. If your toilet rocks back and forth or you see leaks coming from the bottom of your toilet, it&rsquo;s time for a replacement. Other signs that your toilet flange is broken or faulty may include loose tiles or soft flooring around the toilet, and sewage smells.</p></div>
