  1. 5 USEFUL PLUMBING MAINTENANCE TIPS YOU NEED TO KNOW

  2. Regular Inspection and Maintenance Prevention is the key to avoiding major plumbing disasters. Schedule regular inspections of your plumbing system to identify any potential issues before they worsen. Check for leaks under sinks, around appliances, and in the basement or crawl spaces.

  3. Proper Disposal Practices Your plumbing system isn't designed to handle all types of waste. Avoid flushing anything other than human waste and toilet paper down the toilet. Fats, oils, and grease should never be poured down the kitchen sink as they can clog pipes over time. Use drain strainers to catch hair and debris in bathroom sinks and showers.

  4. Maintaining Water Heaters A well-functioning water heater is crucial for daily comfort. Sediment buildup in the tank can reduce its efficiency and lifespan. To prevent this, drain a few gallons of water from the tank every few months to flush out sediment. Furthermore, monitor the temperature and pressure relief valve to be certain it's working as it should.

  5. Protecting Pipes in Winter Calgary's chilly winters can wreak havoc on unprotected pipes. Frozen pipes can burst and cause extensive damage. To prevent this, insulate your pipes using foam sleeves or heating tape. Disconnect and drain outdoor hoses before winter to prevent freezing in the faucets and pipes connected to them.

  6. Be Mindful of Water Usage Environmental well-being and the health of your plumbing system are both positively impacted by the practice of water conservation. Install low-flow fixtures in sinks and showers to reduce water pressure and minimize strain on pipes. Show consideration for your water usage when operating appliances like dishwashers and washing machines.

  7. Why Choose Us Consistent maintenance, suitable disposal habits, and winterizing precautions stand as pivotal elements within a properly preserved plumbing system. While these tips can be implemented by homeowners themselves, enlisting the help of professional handyman plumbing services, especially in a city like Calgary known for its unique plumbing challenges, can provide added peace of mind.
