What is the best drain cleaning technique?

Keeping the drains cleaned inside and outside a building can prevent sewage backups and overflowing toilets. Our company uses new technology such as camera and video systems to find a blockage in a drain. This means we do not need to dig up large areas of a yard to repair a section of pipe. Finding a blockage quickly means that technicians can use a high pressure hydrojetting to thoroughly remove grease, hair and tree roots from your water pipes.

How can I prevent a burst pipe?

Bursting water pipes are quite common when temperatures drop. In many cases, a homeowner or property manager could have prevented the leaking pipe by preparing during warmer weather. Water pipes located in unheated areas are more likely to freeze during the winter. We suggest that customers drain the water from the pipes before making sure valves are turned off. It is recommended to wrap insulation material around water pipes in crawl spaces, utility rooms or basements to prevent cracks and holes.

What are the benefits of tankless water heaters?

Having a tankless water heater installed at a private residence or commercial property has several benefits. A standard water heater is one of the most expensive appliances to operate in a home. The metal tank holds a large quantity of water that is kept warm for many hours by natural gas or electric power. Alternatively, a tankless water heater heats water only when it is needed, leading to lower utility bills. An additional benefit of a tankless water heater is that it is less likely to corrode. This is because water runs through hoses quickly while it is being heated, instead of remaining in the device.
