Protect your Pipes! Plumbing Tips with Joe Boziak

Send us Fan Mail

Pouring grease down the kitchen sink seems harmless until the day the drain slows to a crawl. Joe Boziak, a master plumber with decades in the trade, handles all of the Northeast Ohio Regional Sewer District’s plumbing needs. We discuss fats, oils, and greases (FOG), how they can mess up your pipes, and why the old “just run hot water” advice can make the buildup worse. 

Home-plumbing maintenance consists of low-cost moves like saving cooking grease in a can, feeding a garbage disposal slowly with cold water running, and a quick test for toilet leaks. If you care about avoiding clogs—and keeping our sewer shared infrastructure running smooth, this episode is a must listen!
