Think you know what belongs in the drain? It’s time to play Flush or Bust, the game where common sense meets plumbing expertise. Here’s the deal: every day, items like wipes, cotton balls, and even grease make their way into pipes where they don’t belong. The result? Clogged drains, damaged sewer systems, and hefty repair bills.
Let’s break it down:
- Flush: Toilet paper and, well...the obvious.
- Bust: “Flushable” wipes, hygiene products, and grease — despite what labels might suggest.
- The Biggest Offender: FOG (fats, oils and grease) may seem harmless as a liquid, but it solidifies in pipes, causing blockages and expensive backups.
Want to keep pipes flowing? Share this game with your team or customers. The next time someone asks, “Can I flush this?” you’ll know the answer: If in doubt, throw it out!
