Don't Let a Plumbing Emergency Ruin Halloween

A plumbing emergency can be a scary situation! Homeowners can use these three tips to keep their home safe from potential plumbing emergencies this spooky season. Clogged drains, burst pipes, and malfunctioning water heaters are all nightmares homeowners should take steps to avoid.

In this blog post, plumbing experts share three ways homeowners can keep their homes safe from plumbing emergencies this fall. Plumbing systems are complicated, but keeping them running safely does not have to be. Preventing plumbing disasters with annual maintenance keeps the home safe and saves the homeowner money on potential repairs. 

Drain Cleaning

Drains are often overlooked when people think about their plumbing systems, but clogged drains are one of the number one causes of plumbing disasters. The entire plumbing system is connected, and a lack of proper drainage can cause serious problems. Neglecting the drains include burst pipes underground or sewer backflow into the home. 

Scheduling regular drain cleaning services can help protect homeowners from a scary plumbing situation this fall. Professional plumbers have methods such as drain snaking and hydro-jetting, which can be used to clear drains safely. Homeowners can also mix baking soda and vinegar or pour hot water down the drain to help clean it. 

One should never use liquid drain cleaners to try to fix a clogged drain because of the toxic chemicals they contain. When the liquid drain cleaner fails to clear the clog immediately, the toxic fumes can come back into the house. Liquid drain cleaner can be even scarier than a clogged drain because of the risk of poisoning from exposure to the chemicals. 

How to Prevent Clogged Toilets

Even some items advertised as flushable can cause problems for certain toilets. Wipes, paper towels, and sanitary napkins should be thrown in the trashcan rather than flushed down the toilet. Using less toilet paper can also be beneficial for preventing a clogged toilet. 

Water Heater Maintenance

maintenanceA broken water heater can be scary for multiple reasons. The water heater is an essential piece of plumbing hardware for modern homes. It provides the home with warm water for bathing, cleaning, and other daily tasks. Homeowners should regularly maintain their water heaters to ensure that it does not break down this Halloween.

The benefits of doing water heater maintenance include promoting efficient performance, keeping energy bills low, and protecting the safety of the household. Maintenance also helps to protect the homeowner's investment in their water heater system. Fixing small problems before they get out of hand can add years to the lifespan of the hardware. 

When water heaters work, the natural minerals in the water can separate into solid sediment. This sediment build-up can eventually cause corrosion of the water heater tank. During water heater maintenance appointments, the technician will safely clean out the sediment to prevent corrosion and other problems.
