Set a Resolution to Remember Plumbing Maintenance This Year

August 24, 2023 by Vincent Knisley

What is Included in Plumbing Maintenance?

The holidays can be challenging, but most people don’t realize that the home can get stressed by the holidays too. Extra loads placed on the drains and water heater can add stress to the plumbing system, causing headaches and stress for the homeowner.

This new year, homeowners should take care of their plumbing systems with plumbing maintenance. Here are a few recommendations to help homeowners understand what plumbing maintenance includes and why it is helpful.

Preventative Drain Cleaning

Drain cleaning is an integral part of plumbing maintenance because water and waste need to be able to flow freely through the drains and pipes. Homeowners should not use chemical drain cleaners to perform drain cleaning. These cleaners are corrosive and can damage pipes, leading to bigger problems. Even if the pipe doesn’t corrode, the acid in these chemicals can erode rubber seals and gaskets, causing them to fail. Additionally, these substances can corrode metal fixtures, such as faucets and shower heads.

Professional plumbers use specialized equipment like hydro jets to clean drains without causing any damage to the pipes themselves. This is because professional drain cleaning can remove build-up more efficiently and prevent drains from becoming clogged in the future. Using a professional service ensures that the plumbing system will be safe and functioning correctly.

Professional Plumbing Maintenance

Homeowners should trust the experts for plumbing maintenance. Plumbers have the skills and tools to help make plumbing maintenance a comprehensive practice. Some things that plumbers can do during maintenance are:

  • Spot signs of corrosion in pipework
  • Clean sewer lines along with stubborn sink clogs
  • Test water pressure
  • Look for leaks and fix them
  • Perform comprehensive water heater maintenance

Professional plumbing maintenance can give homeowners peace of mind about their plumbing. Routine maintenance helps extend the life of the plumbing and prevents issues from occurring. Professional plumbers have the expertise to identify potential issues with a plumbing system before they become more serious problems. This can save homeowners from spending money on costly repairs in the future. Don’t hesitate to get an expert’s opinion to stay stress-free in the coming year.

Water Heater Maintenance

No plumbing maintenance plan is complete without giving the water heater some attention, along with the rest of the plumbing system. Water heaters can become damaged throughout the year or, at the very least, suffer some wear and tear that can rob performance in the form of efficiency and make problems more likely. Water heater maintenance protects efficiency, lowers utility bills, extends the water heater’s lifespan, and lowers the risk of issues arising.

Some of the things that technicians will address during water heater maintenance are:

  • Draining the tank and flushing out settled solids
  • Checking anti-corrosion devices like the anode rod
  • Inspecting for signs of corrosion
  • Checking for leaks
  • Inspecting and cleaning burners and heating elements

Allowing a professional to complete these steps can lower utility bills associated with heating water. It can also help expand the longevity of the unit. Homeowners should invest in their homes by giving professional plumbers a chance to do plumbing maintenance every year, and there is no better time to start than now.
