    The Risks of DIY Drain Clearing in Glenroy

    Do you know what chemicals are in that bottle of DIY drain cleaning liquid? You might be surprised when you find out more. Drain clearing liquids are either highly alkaline or acidic. Alkaline drain cleaners generally contain lye or sodium hydroxide. Acidic drain cleaning liquids tend to contain strong concentrations of sulphuric acid. Both of these mixtures are intended to clear a blocked drain without requiring the help of a plumber. However, you get what you pay for in the end. Lye can easily irritate the eyes, causing swelling and redness. In cases of heavy exposure, it can even cause blindness. Acidic drain cleaners are very hazardous as well. If they come into contact with your skin, you could experience excruciating caustic burns. The acid in the liquid will eat away at your flesh until washed off. Don’t risk harm to yourself or your Glenroy family. If you’ve got a drain blockage in your home, call Local Plumber Melbourne instead!

    What’s So Important About Hot Water Glenroy?

    A hot water anode or “sacrificial anode” is crucial for keeping your hot water system in prime condition and extending its lifespan. The sole purpose of an anode rod is to prevent corrosion inside your tank. Generally, anode rods will need to be changed every 3-4 years. Once the rod is fully corroded, your tank is no longer protected. Having an anode rod hot water service is highly recommended to prevent rust formation inside your hot water system.

      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)
