If you've ever noticed a small hole in your sink, you might have wondered what it's for. This tiny hole, called the overflow hole, plays an important role in stopping your sink from overflowing.

The overflow hole is a safety feature that helps prevent water from spilling over the edge of the sink. If the water in the sink rises too high, it will flow through the overflow hole and into the drain, keeping the sink from flooding. This is especially useful in bathroom sinks, where the water might be left running while brushing teeth or washing hands.

Many people don’t pay much attention to the overflow hole, but it’s important to understand its purpose. Knowing about it can help you avoid flooding or water damage in your home. It's also a good idea to clean the overflow hole from Soap or dirt that can make it less effective. Wiping around it occasionally can help keep it working properly.

So next time you see that small hole in your sink, remember that it’s there to keep water from spilling and protect your home from damage.
