How To Prevent Burst Pipes

A burst pipe can cause massive water damage to your house. It can quickly lead to hundreds of gallons of water flooding your home. Fortunately, there are steps you can take to prevent this from occurring.

Keep your pipes properly insulated during colder weather. Otherwise, apply a heat wrap on extremely cold evenings.
Keep your faucets running at a trickle in your sinks when the temperatures dip.
Call a plumber if you notice reduced water pressure.
Look for signs of leaks inside your home or building.
Have your pipes inspected by a licensed technician.
Have aging pipes replaced by a plumber.
Schedule routine drain cleanings to remove buildup in your pipes.

Common Water Heater Problems You Might Encounter

You need your water heater to function properly to provide hot water for your shower, your kids’ baths, washing dishes, and more. Unfortunately, occasionally you might experience issues that can cause your water heater to malfunction. Some common problems can include:

LACK OF HOT WATER

One of the most obvious - and common - problems with your system can be a lack of hot water. If this happens in a gas-powered unit it can be due to an extinguished pilot light that needs to be relit. It can also be caused by a damaged heating element that must be replaced.

LEAKS

If your unit is leaking, have it inspected by a professional so he or she can determine the severity of the leak and decide if the water heater should be repaired or replaced.

EXCESS NOISE

Loud or odd noises coming from your system can signal a damaged heating element or a buildup of sediment inside the unit.

CRACKS

Any cracks in your unit should be inspected by a plumber to determine if they can be repaired or if a new system needs to be installed.
