f. Drainage<br />
Mains Drainage:<br />
Should a drain blockage become evident in the Drainage system, it is important that<br />
you contact the <strong>Housing</strong> Association as soon as possible.<br />
The drains to your new <strong>home</strong> are connected to the Public Drainage system. As such,<br />
they are adopted by the Local Authority at the end of the 12 month maintenance<br />
period. Following the 12 month inspection, any problems relating to the drains should<br />
be referred to the Local Authority.<br />
Please note, the majority of household blockages are caused by household<br />
waste, such as, Disposable Nappies, Solidified Fats, etc., and therefore care<br />
should be taken to ensure that none of these are allowed to enter the drainage<br />
system.
