    What Causes Drain Blockages in Albion?

    Your home is full of drains, so there’s no one culprit. Different fixtures can be blocked by a variety of things, so it’s important that you are well educated. Your kitchen sink could be getting clogged because of food residue, grease, oil or fat. This is easy to avoid – just put these substances in the bin instead. You’d be surprised how many strange household objects are found in blocked toilets in Albion. If you’ve got young kids, make sure they don’t accidentally flush their toys down the drain! Shower and bathtub blockages are often caused by a combination of hair and soap grime. Installing a mesh screen over your pipe openings can prevent this. If you’ve got a dog, choosing to wash them outside can also prevent blocked showers or bathtubs. Stormwater drains or gutters outside your home are also susceptible to blockages. You could have a huge amount of leaves, sticks and other natural debris in gutters or drains without even knowing this. If they are left in this state without being cleared, you could experience flooding.

    What Should I Do If I Suspect A Water Leak in Albion?

    First of all, you should try and figure out exactly what is causing your leakages. You could have a leaking tap, running fixtures, damaged pipes or fixtures that are loosely fitted. You should turn off anything using water inside or outside your home. Remind your household members of what you are doing. Next, take a reading of your water meter, then wait for 1-2 hours. If there’s been a change in usage, take note. After taking another reading, check if it has changed again. If it has, you’ll probably need help from a plumber to fix your water leak.

    What Do I Need To Consider Before Getting A Hot Water Heater in Albion?

    There are a number of factors you should consider in regard to hot water systems. A plumber can help you understand the pros and cons of different types of hot water systems. They’ll also help you understand the costs associated with each brand and model of system. The same water heater may not work for every home – some people use electric hot water systems and some people prefer a solar powered option. The licensed and qualified experts at Local Plumber Melbourne can help you stay informed about all kinds of systems and help you with any installation, repairs or servicing you require.

      How often should a hot water system be serviced?

      You need to check the relief valves that they are in working order every 4 months and replace these valves every five years. The anode in an electric and solar hot water system requires replacement every five years as well.

      My toilet is running what can I do?

      A running toilet is usually the result of a broken or faulty flapper (aka, flush valve or “tank” ball) in the bottom of the tank that needs to be replaced. The chain in your tank could be the culprit as well. If it is too long it can get caught under the flapper. Both problems are easily fixed.

      If I have a major water leak in my home what should I do?

      First, turn off your water supply at the main shut-off valve. As a homeowner it’s important to know where this is located and educate your family member as well. Second, always contact a professional plumber during emergencies. And don’t touch any wet electrical fittings – call in an electrician to deal with that.

      What would cause the water to be rusty and brown?

      Corrosion/rust forms on the inside of water pipes. A change in water pressure will cause this rust to turn loose and come through the taps. Sediment from the hot water heater. If the glass lining in the hot water heater may be compromised, allowing the metal jacket to rust. If this is the case, you are not long till the hot water system starts to leak.

      When I turn off a faucet, I hear a banging noise. What causes it?

      This is called "water hammer". When water travelling quickly through a pipe has to stop ( when you close the valve) the force of the water shakes or vibrates any pipe not strapped securely. A mechanical water hammer arrestor installed on your distribution system will usually correct this. (Or don't close the valve so quickly)
