Tips for preventing plumbing problems this Thanksgiving

1. Do not treat your disposal like a trash can! Prevent overloading by throwing your leftovers in the trash or compost pile. 

2. Run Water. When using the disposal, make sure to let the water run, and keep it on a few seconds after you turn the disposal off.

3. Do not operate your dishwasher if you think there is a problem. Wait until after the holiday to avoid unnecessary stress, and wait for an expert to take a look.   

4. Keep Grease at a minimum. Avoid dumping grease down the drain. Wipe off all excess grease before washing in the sink.

5. Avoid putting stringy, fibrous or starchy waste in the garbage disposal. Poultry skins, celery, fruit  and potato peels, for example, cannot be sufficiently broken down.

Why is Backflow Prevention Important?

How Do I Shut Off My Water Heater?

No matter what water heater you buy, someday it will get old and start leaking if it isn’t replaced first. It’s very important to know how to shut the unit off in case of a leak. If you are looking at the front of the water heater, you will see two pipes at the top (most likely copper or plastic pipe).

On the pipe to the right (the cold water side), you will find a shut off valve. This may be either a gate valve (a round turning valve) or a ball valve (a handle valve). IMPORTANT: Gate valves are sometimes a bit tricky and often aren’t reliable. If you have one of these valves, slowly turn the valve clockwise until it closes. This may require several revelations. Be sure not to turn the valve too tight or with too much force.

To ensure that the hot water is shut off, go to any faucet in the house and turn on the hot water – the water should subside completely. This may take a couple of minutes. If the water doesn’t subside, leave the hot water on in the faucet, return to the water heater and listen carefully for a hissing sound coming from the valve. If you hear one, the valve has not been shut all the way – try opening and closing it several times until it closes tightly.

Halloween Plumbing Problem

Halloween is here and there is one thing that is most common around this time of year:

Americans will scrape millions of pounds of pulp from pumpkins throughout the Halloween season and our plumbers, will remove gobs of it from clogged drains before the end of the Halloween season. Our plumbers have become as common a Halloween visitor as little vampires or ghosts thanks to sticky pumpkin pulp and seeds. Plumbers know that frantic homeowners will soon be complaining about pulp-clogged garbage disposals and stopped up kitchen sink drains in the two weeks leading up to Halloween. If this has happened to you, give us a call today and our drain cleaning specialist will clear the problem right up!
