De ce trebuie să acoperiți scurgerea de la chiuvetă cu hârtie când plecați de acasă. Scăpați de mirosuri? • Newsweek România
Covering sink drains with paper before leaving home can prevent unpleasant odors from entering the house. When a home is unoccupied for a while, water in the siphons can evaporate, allowing sewer smells to seep in. To avoid this, run water in all sinks to fill the siphons, then place a damp paper over the drain and cover it with an inverted glass to slow evaporation. Toilets should also retain water to block odors, and it's advisable not to empty the bowl completely. Simple precautions can help maintain a fresh environment upon returning home.
