Taking Care of Your Gainesville Apartment Sink

The kitchen is the central attraction of most homes, typically because this room is often full of good smells, good food, and great memories. Because the kitchen is so important, each apartment kitchen at Bellamay Grand features top-of-the-line appliances, professionally selected tile and backsplash, and high-quality wood cabinetry.

With a kitchen this good-looking, our residents often want to make sure that everything else in their Gainesville apartments is clean and functioning, including their kitchen sinks. To keep your kitchen sink in tip-top shape, consider these drain maintenance tips and tricks:

• Speed up a slow drain by running hot water and chasing it with a few cups of vinegar. Next pour a quarter cup of baking soda and follow with another cup of vinegar. After 10 minutes, flush with hot water.
• Prevent clogs by never pouring grease down the drain.
• Freshen up a garbage disposal with two ice cubes and a few tablespoons of vinegar. Turn on and run hot water while the disposal is running. Also try grinding some peels of citrus fruit in the disposal for a fresh smell.
• Try this recipe to naturally unclog a drain—pour a half-cup of baking soda and a half-cup of salt into drain. Next pour in a half-cup of vinegar. Wait 15 minutes and run hot water.
