Most of us just ignore these, although it is right that drain covers may not be the first thing on your mind, but these are important to keep the outdoors clean, safe, and free from waterlogging. Here in this blog, we discuss some of the common mistakes one should avoid while selecting and installing drain covers to ensure the safety as well as longevity of the work done!! Read on!! 

Selecting the right material

Drain covers are manufactured in different materials such as plastic metal, rubber, concrete, stones, etc . You need to select the material as per the requirement of your place depending upon the traffic, and footfall. In certain conditions, like to enhance the aesthetic appeal of your place, you should opt for concrete or stone drain covers, as these would blend with the surroundings and add a touch of elegance to your place.

Choosing the right size

Always make sure to check out the proper size of the drain cover and do not make haste in purchasing. People make common mistakes by selecting the improper size of the drain covers. Hence leads to problems, as if the size is small then it would not effectively prevent debris from entering the drain and would clog the drain. On the other hand, an oversized drain cover would not fit correctly and become a tripping hazard. So measure the drain carefully to select the right size of the drain cover.

Proper installation

Then always make sure to get these installed by trained professionals or follow the guidelines provided by the company. Sometimes people just place these without securing the edges. Thus these can pop off from the place and would be very dangerous and lead to accidents. It is necessary to fix these as per the guidelines using adhesives or any other securing material.

Maintenance

Regular maintenance is a must. Neglecting regular cleaning and maintenance would reduce their life and lead to clogging and bad odour.
