    How Can I Avoid Drain Blockages in Exford?

    Drain cleaning is not an issue that most homeowners consider in Exford. As long as water is flowing as usual, most people don’t care about how drain systems work. However, blocked pipes can be a serious issue. When they prevent proper water flow, the pressure inside drains could result in a leakage or burst pipes. Luckily, following the advice of plumbers can help you avoid blockages in your pipes. First, you should install a drain cover in your sinks, shower and bathtub. A plugged screen stops dirt and debris from travelling down your pipes. You should also avoid putting grease, oil or fat down your kitchen sink. A drain can easily handle milk, clean water and other liquids. However, grease, fat and oil could result in blocked pipes. If you’re planting new trees in your yard, make sure they are located far away from drains. If you don’t, you could experience tree root intrustion blockages in the future.

    Health Problems and Leaking Pipes in Exford

    Pipe leaks often happen when you least expect them. If they go unnoticed or end up being left unattended, they can swiftly cause major damage throughout your Exford home. While the burden of repair costs and the risk for further damage throughout your home is a scary thought, the risk of health issues caused by leaks is an even bigger cause for concern. In the majority of circumstances, it’s not the leaks themselves that cause health problems. The main concern is the growth of mould and mildew as a result of water build-up. Growth of these substances could cause a range of respiratory problems. In a worst case scenario, your family could experience coughing, sneezing, sinus congestion, fatigue, rashes or fever.

    Rusty Hot Water in Exford

    There are a number of issues associated with rusty water. It tastes bad, smells bad and can stain your clothing when you attempt to wash it. In some cases, it can even be a sign of contamination in your water supply. One of the most typical causes of rusty hot water is sediment in the hot water system. Small amounts of rust and dirt from the supply can build up as water is pumped through your heater. This water sits on the base of the heater tank. When the tank is suddenly switched on, it will stir up and push a burst of brownish sediment into your water line.

      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)
