The plumbing experts at Orsack Plumbing Company have provided the following easy tips to help you ensure that your plumbing system is running smoothly and efficiently:
• Get acquainted with your plumbing system – One of the most important parts of maintaining your plumbing is being aware of where your pipes are located. Piping can inadvertently be damaged during unrelated home renovations or repairs. Stud sensors that can detect piping are available at your local hardware store. It’s also important that you know where your plumbing shut-off valve is located and how to use it in the case of an emergency.
• Monitor your plumbing for leaks – not only do leaks waste water they also cost you $$$ and have the potential to cause water damage. Orsack Plumbing Company recommends monitoring the water gauge on your water meter. Check the number on the gauge before going to bed and then check it again first thing in the morning before anyone uses any water. If the number in the morning is higher, then you are probably experiencing a water leak.
• Watch and maintain your drains – Orsack Plumbing Company recommends annual storm and sewage drain inspections before your drains malfunction. It will save you money in the long run and is much more cost effective than having to pay for excavation and replacement pipes. For at home maintenance, keep your drains clear with vinegar and baking soda. Pour one cup of baking soda and one cup of vinegar down your drains once per month; wait 10 minutes before running the water. This preventative measure will keep hair and soap scum from clogging your drains.
• Never use a plunger with chemicals – If your drain cleaning chemicals do not clear the blockage, call the professionals at Orsack Plumbing Company immediately. Using a plunger could cause the chemicals to flow back up your drain and come in accidental contact with your skin, eyes or airway causing injury.
