Good morning gents.
I’ve not found a solid answer to this one. Will dumping a gallon of bleach down the john every few months damage anything. Main drain is cast from the mid fifties. Sinks, tub are a mix of ABS & PVC. My wife is convinced this will keep the lines clear, based on her internet searches. This is an endeavor to mitigate the frequent, multiple times per year snaking that works but never produces the culprit. We’ve tried Zep crystals for a couple years and as the blockage is upstream from an immediate exterior clean out it would not be roots. Everything is accessible in the crawl space. We’re very careful not to put grease or much vegetable matter down the sink. No grinder.
Thanks in advance.
