A drain filter is an excellent solution to prevent unsuitable materials from entering your pipes. Beyond the standard shower grate, an internal filter can be very effective.
Materials Needed:
- Steel sponge (the type used for cleaning pots)
- String
Instructions:
- Cut the steel sponge to fit snugly into the drain without blocking it. Aim for an elongated shape with protruding points.
- Tie the sponge securely with string to prevent it from slipping into the pipes. Attach the other end of the string to the shower grate.
- Ensure the sponge does not block the drain and allows water to flow freely. It should be large enough to act as a filter without obstructing the drain.
Using the DIY Filter: Every time you lift the grate covering the shower drain, the sponge tied to the string will come with it, allowing you to remove accumulated debris easily. This method helps keep your drains clear and reduces the need for frequent plumbing services.
By following this simple tip, you can maintain your drains, save money, and avoid the hassle of plumbing issues.
