How Can I Take Good Care Of My Residential Plumbing?

We are here to help you understand the best possible care of your plumbing system. Follow these tips:

We do not recommend the use of liquid products sold to unclog drains. We recommend the use of hot water and baking soda instead, or call us to take care of the problem properly.
Keep your water heater at 120 degrees F.
We recommend you use a water softener. Soft water is better for your plumbing (and for you!)
Consider switching to water-saving shower heads and low-consumption toilets.
Never put anything down your drain or garbage disposal that you could instead simply place in the trash.
It’s best to flush your water heater every six months to a year. Our exact recommendations will depend on how many people live in your house. Talk to us about best practices.
We recommend the use of white vinegar to remove calcium deposits from your fixtures. Avoid the use of harsh chemicals.
If you discover a leak, call us immediately!
We recommend stainless steel or “flood control” supply lines for your faucets. If you don’t have these in place, talk to us about installing them.
