After rodding out a drain or even plunging it, is it best to flush the lines with cold water or hot water? I can see the benefits of each but was wondering what works best from your experience. Thanks!

Since most clogs involve grease, hair and garbage cold water will just set the grease up. Hot or boiling water will melt the grease and loosen it so it can be flushed out to the main. Good luck, Tom

Agree, the hotter the better.
