Can I prevent clogged drains?
The biggest enemies of your drains are hair and grease. As it travels down the line, grease starts to cool off and slow down. It eventually comes to a dead stop and starts building on itself until your drain is completely blocked. When this happens, you’ll have to call the professionals to snake out the drain and remove the grease. You can avoid this expense by allowing grease to cool before putting it in the trash can.
Use mesh liners to catch hair and stop it from going down the shower drain, and limit your use of the garbage disposal to small amounts of food rather than entire meals. If you notice that your drain is running slow, pour some boiling water down it to address the clog before it gets too bad.
Can I detect a water leak?
Most people enjoy a water bill that’s relatively stable. If your bill suddenly jumps up without any explanation, then a water leak could be to blame. Mold or mildew growing without any obvious source could be drawing strength from the hidden water leak. Look for signs of water stains, and listen for the sound of running water when all of the faucets are shut down.
If you notice any of these warning signs, you should call for immediate service and leak detection. Water leaks that are allowed to continue unchecked will eventually lead to structural damage, including a cracked or shifting foundation.
Can I extend the lifespan of my water heater?
Help your water heater last longer by giving it the star treatment. You may not be able to see the interior, but sediment can be building up in the bottom of your tank and damaging it. You can connect a hose to the bottom of the tank to drain it a few gallons at a time to remove the sediment. The process is time-consuming, so you may choose to have a professional do it for you. In addition it is also recommended that you wrap your tank in an insulating blanket, this increases efficiency. By reducing heat loss, insulation also reduces the strain on your water heater.
