Q: How do you avoid future clogs?

• <div><p>Using less toilet paper is the easiest way to prevent future clogs. Also, avoid flushing sanitary products, thick paper towels, or hair down the toilet. If you&rsquo;ve been using a brick in the tank to reduce the water used to flush the toilet, take it out immediately. Bricks will eventually fall apart and clog your toilet drain. Keeping your toilet lid closed also helps avoid future clogs.</p></div>

"The young man who cleaned the vents and the HVAC filters in the attic was professional and timely. I'm not an expert in grading this service, but I presume he was thorough. The service took about 2 hours. I gave them a B for only two reasons: they rescheduled several times, and he tried to sell me a $350 seal/sanitize package, which I declined. I do plan to use them for HVAC cleaning twice a year.

"Omar and his crew were awesome! I got a call almost immediately following my search in Angie’s list. We set an appointment for the next day, they gave me a fantastic estimate, and we scheduled for the next week. The crew showed up right on time, set up protective equipment for my house and got right to it. If I needed this type of work done again they would absolutely be the people I call. Very quick, clean, well priced, professional, and even fixed some things the other insulators broke in my house without fixing. They worked quickly and took care of my home. They were very competitively priced and did an outstanding job. Omar and his crew do great work."

"The dishwasher fix - almost immediately identified that the guys who installed a new countertop recently had not fully turned the water back on after they finished. So THAT's why the dishes weren't getting clean!
The icemaker fix - quickly identified the problem and it's now working fine. The only reason I marked punctuality down is that there was miscommunication between the service guy and the office, to us, about when he would be back to complete the dishwasher repair. But not a major issue.
We've used these guys before to install a gas cooktop and they are smart, experienced folks who know what they're doing.

Dryer Vent Cleaning questions, answered by experts

In a ventless dryer, lint it collected in a lint filter found inside the door or dryer drum. Vented dryers have this same lint filter, but in a ventless dryer you’ll need to stay on top of cleaning the lint filter after every wash. This is a common best practice, regardless of your dryer vent type.

There are a few things you can look out for that indicate it’s time to clean your dryer vent, including the following:

It has been a year or more since the last professional cleaning.
Your clothes are taking longer to dry than usual.
Your clothes smell musty or burnt when they come out of the dryer.
You see lint building up around the outside dryer vent cap.
Your laundry room is unusually hot.
Your dryer is unusually hot to the touch during operation.
You notice a kink in or damage to the vent.

You will know if your dryer is overheating by placing your hand on top to feel its temperature. If it’s hot to the touch, that’s a clear sign the dryer is overheated. Other signs include your laundry coming out hotter than usual, a burnt smell when it’s running, or burn marks on your laundry.

If you just moved into a new house or found significant mold, dust, or pest remnants in your vents, or you see condensation on your air vents, you can easily find a highly trained pro to do the job correctly by asking a few key questions:

Do you have proof of liability insurance?
What about worker's compensation insurance?
Are you a member of the NADCA?
Have you worked on my model of HVAC system before?
What is included in your contracted amount?
Can you provide local references?

Using less toilet paper is the easiest way to prevent future clogs. Also, avoid flushing sanitary products, thick paper towels, or hair down the toilet. If you’ve been using a brick in the tank to reduce the water used to flush the toilet, take it out immediately. Bricks will eventually fall apart and clog your toilet drain. Keeping your toilet lid closed also helps avoid future clogs.
