Thanksgiving Wishes and Cautionary Advice: A Message from Erkies Corporation President

As the autumn chill settles in and Thanksgiving approaches, we find ourselves reflecting on what truly matters: our loved ones. This holiday is about gratitude, warmth, and gathering around a table filled with delicious food. At Erkies Corporation, we would like to express our heartfelt appreciation to our customers and friends for your ongoing support. This Thanksgiving, we wish you joy, love, and memorable moments with those who matter most.


Thanksgiving is more than just enjoying a turkey dinner; it's about sharing laughter, stories, and cherished memories. While we all eagerly anticipate the meals, it's crucial to keep your home safe, particularly your plumbing, during this festive time.

The Importance of Caution in the Kitchen


As you prepare your Thanksgiving meal, remember that the kitchen turns into a busy hub of activity. The urge to quickly dispose of grease and food scraps in the garbage disposal can be strong, especially after cooking a hearty meal. However, this can lead to significant plumbing issues. A study showed that nearly 80% of plumbing problems on holidays stem from improper disposal of food waste.


Pouring grease down the disposal can lead to clogs, as fat cools and solidifies, obstructing pipes. Instead, use a container for excess grease and dispose of it later in the trash. Consider this: a simple step like this can save you from costly plumbing repairs during one of the busiest cooking days of the year.

Practical Tips for Thanksgiving Safety


As you prepare for the holiday, keep these plumbing safety tips in mind:


  • Dispose of Grease Properly: Collect any grease in a sealed container before throwing it in your trash. This prevents clogs in your plumbing system.

  • Be Selective with Your Disposal: Avoid putting fibrous vegetables, bones, and large food items down the garbage disposal, as these can cause jams.

  • Run Cold Water: When using the disposal, always run cold water before, during, and after to help flush waste effectively.

  • Use a Plunger for Slow Drains: If you encounter slow drains, a plunger is a helpful tool. Ensure you use the correct type to avoid damaging your sink.

  • Know When to Call for Help: If clogs persist or more significant plumbing issues arise, don’t hesitate to contact Erkies. Our team is ready to ensure your holiday is enjoyable and hassle-free.
