The cheapest way to avoid a clog is a strainer that catches debris before it enters the pipe. Here is the Santa Ana guide.
What strainers catch
Kitchen strainers catch food scraps; shower strainers catch hair; tub strainers catch both. Anything caught at the drain never becomes a clog downstream.
Pick the right one
A fine-mesh strainer for showers, a basket strainer for kitchen sinks, and a tub stopper with a built-in strainer cover the basics.
Keep them clean
A strainer only works if you empty it. Clean it after each use, and it will do its job for years.
The payoff
