Never Pour Oil or Grease Down The Sink

Reduce Your Water Pressure

Regularly Check Leaks

Use Sink Strainer
One of the ways to avoid the flow of substances down the drain from your sink is by installing strainers. Sink strainers work by filtering water and preventing any flow of objects down the drain.
