There are so many DIY channels, youtube videos, and books for those looking to save a few bucks and take on home improvements all on their own. Many DIY assignments most take on are generally easy and manageable as long as there is a step by step guide. Other duties become daunting, and often end up causing more hassle than letting a professional do the job. Every now and then there is a funny story that comes along with it. Maybe that power tool caused a window to break while installing the wood flooring, or you used the wrong grout re-tiling. No matter the case, life goes on and you either live with the mistakes, or after much deliberation, and perhaps nagging, you get that specialist over to make that project look appealing and work the way it’s supposed to. No matter the outcome, no one got seriously hurt, or died. It may seem melodramatic but some DIY projects could go that way if you do not know what you are doing!
DIY Plumbing Problems
Plumbing and electrical work can be harmful to your health or even fatal. Installing your new water heater on your own could be the worst and maybe the last mistake you make. There are about twenty five pages of the typical water heater manual, complete with a step-by-step set of instructions. Looking it over may seem easy enough, but for those who did not notice, there are warning and caution labels on almost every page of that booklet. Before it reads the basic installation guide, the first three pages include warnings such as;
IF THE INFORMATION IN THESE INSTRUCTIONS ARE NOT FOLLOWED EXACTLY, A FIRE OR EXPLOSION MAY RESULT, CAUSING PROPERTY DAMAGE, PERSONAL INJURY, OR DEATH! That warning is just the beginning. Following that cautioning are detailed instructions if you smell gas. Then another warning label reminds you of the devastating consequences that can result if not properly installed.
The next couple pages continues the warnings and cautions regarding variables that entwine with installing a water heater. Be safe! It is worth the service fee of getting this particular job handled by CERTIFIED technicians. Orsack Plumbing Company has state certified specialists ready to provide with the expertise you need to get the water heater installed, or any other plumbing service. There are many folks out there advertising themselves as “Contractors” or “Jack of Aall trades” or “Handyman“. All tradesman from the Texas State Board of plumbing examiners should be the only ones working on the plumbing in your home, not somebody who simply claims they’re a certified technician. If a technician comes to your house, ask to see their Texas certification with their name on it and look to see if it says Master plumber or journeyman plumber.
