Hi - boiling water is a good idea to use every day and you will probably not have a clogged drain to contend with.
I heat a medium size pot of water almost every night and pour down my sinks. Many years and never had a problem (using drains with septic tanks or city lines).
Not sure you wanna do that, because, boiling water can really mess up your pipe joints. I heard that when you drain boiling water from like pasta that you run cold water at the same time?
A plumber once told me as a preventive measure to once a month pour one-half cup of Dawn (a grease-fighter) down the drain followed by a potful of boiling water. It seems to work fine and we don't have service calls.
