Why you should stop throwing boiling water into the sink

In everyday life, it is common to pour boiling water directly into the sink after cooking. However, this common practice can be more harmful than it appears. Why should you never pour boiling water into the sink? This article discusses the risks of this habit and offers safe alternatives to access hot water.
Pipeline-related hazards

Deterioration of materials
: Regular pouring of boiling water into the sink may result in premature wear of the pipes. Most domestic plumbing systems are designed to manage water at a moderate temperature. Materials such as PVC and plastic, often used in pipelines, can deform or even melt when exposed to excessive heat. This can cause leaks, pipe breaks and other problems that are costly to repair.

Accumulation of sediment Boiling water
may also contribute to the accumulation of sediment in the pipes. Food and other particulate residues can be more easily released by heat and adhere to the walls of the pipes. Over time, these deposits may restrict the flow of water or even block pipes completely. Their unblocking requires the intervention of a specialist.
