If you’re not sure when a plumbing problem requires immediate help or if it’s safe to wait for an appointment, here are a few things to consider.
- Flood Risk Water pouring into your home from a burst pipe can be panic-inducing. A burst pipe has the potential to spill hundreds of gallons into the house in a matter of hours, so it’s crucial you act quickly to minimize the damage.
- Health Risk When a toilet overflows or your sewer line backs up, it can bring bacteria, germs, and other pathogens into your home that can cause serious health problems. To protect your family, call for immediate plumbing repair when dealing with these issues.
- No Water Pressure Sometimes, low or no water pressure is caused by a water main break in the city, which is out of your hands. However, if the problem is with your water system, it’s best to call for help immediately to restore service.
- How Long Will You Have to Wait? Another factor when determining whether to call for emergency plumbing repair is how long you’ll have to wait before getting service. For example, if the plumbing issue occurs late Friday evening, and you won’t be able to schedule an appointment until Monday, it’s best to call for help now instead of waiting.
5 Signs Your Electric Water Heater is About to Fail
The typical water heater works without issue for years. However, like all major appliances, it has a finite lifespan. As a general rule, traditional water heaters should be replaced after about ten years.
To avoid sudden system shutdown, be on the lookout for these signs your water heater is failing.
- Age As mentioned, the average tank-style water heater lasts about 10 years. Check your water heater’s serial number to determine how old it is. If it’s getting close to the end of its life, plan on replacing it soon.
- Rust-colored Water When rusty water comes out of your hot water spigot, it could be a sign the inside of your water tank is rusting. Once rust sets in, it’s nearly impossible to stop, and it’s typically cheaper to purchase a new system than repair the old one.
- Strange Noises Many homeowners deal with the effects of hard water, and one effect is sediment and mineral buildup in your water tank. Over time, sediment settles at the bottom of the hot water tank, and when it hardens, it causes the water heater to overwork, which causes the strange popping and knocking sounds.
- Leaks Your water heater undergoes thousands of heating cycles during its lifetime. Constant heating causes the tank to expand, which can lead to leaks. Leaks also result from a tank that’s rusting through.
- Insufficient Hot Water If you’re not getting the amount of hot water as you’re used to, it could be a heating element that’s failed or sediment buildup. Depending on how old your water heater is, it may be better to put the money towards a new system than repairing your old one.
You can avoid many water heater problems by calling All Pro Plumbing and asking about our water heater maintenance plans.
4 Benefits to Hiring a Drain Cleaning Company
Clogged drains are one of the most common household plumbing problems. And while most people turn to home remedies or chemical drain cleaners, there are a few benefits to hiring a professional.
- It’s Safer The next time you have the chance, check out the ingredients in the typical drain cleaner. Most store-bought drain cleaners contain chemicals like sulfuric acid, hydrochloric acid, and lye, all of which are extremely dangerous if you get them on your skin, in your eyes, or inhale the vapors. Besides the health risks, these chemicals generate heat to break up clogs — heat that will damage your plumbing if you rely too heavily on these products. Professional drain cleaners use tools and techniques safe for your family, the environment, and your plumbing.
- It’s More Effective Not all clogs are created equal, and the average homeowner has no idea what caused their clog in the first place or whether their home remedy can fix it. Professionals use advanced diagnostic tools to determine the precise nature and location of the obstruction to remove it more effectively.
- Plumbers Offer Guarantees Most reputable plumbers guarantee their work. If you try to repair a clogged drain and end up making the problem worse, you’re on the hook for fixing it. When you hire a reputable plumbing company, they’ll guarantee the work and the safety of your plumbing system.
- Your Drains Are Cleaner Most home remedies and drain cleaners break up clogs instead of removing the material that causes them. This gunk typically doesn’t travel out of the system and gets embedded again where — you guessed it — it forms another clog. Professional plumbers remove the material that causes clogs, leaving your pipes cleaner than other methods.
