What are the common mistakes people make when disposing of fats, oils and grease?
When many people are finished cooking, they tend to dump left-over cooking grease, oils and food scraps down the sink and simply turn on the garbage disposal. Another common mistake is rinsing dishes in the sink with hot water to remove the grease residue left on plates. Hot water may serve only to push the potential clog further down the pipe, often meaning that the eventual blockage may be even more costly to repair.
