If you turn off the main water supply, remember that this is a bigger step than simply covering a drain and may not be appropriate for every property or plumbing setup.
What You Shouldn’t Do
Avoid pouring harsh chemicals down every drain simply because you’re going away.
There’s usually no need to use drain cleaners as a preventive measure, and unnecessary chemical use can create plumbing and safety concerns.
Likewise, don’t assume that a covered drain means your plumbing is protected from leaks or other failures.
