Plumbing

Yellow water can often indicate the presence of rust or sediments in your pipes, especially in older homes with corroded pipe systems. Regular plumbing maintenance can help in identifying such issues early.

Hard water contains higher amounts of minerals like calcium and magnesium. Soft water, on the other hand, has been treated, stripping away these minerals, which can be beneficial for your home appliances and skin.

Low water pressure can be due to a variety of reasons, including blocked pipes or a malfunctioning pressure regulator. Reach out to a plumber to diagnose and provide the necessary plumbing repair.

On average, homes should have their sewer lines jetted every 18-22 months. However, if you have frequent blockages or tree roots near your lines, you may need to do it more often.

Avoid fibrous foods, grease, eggshells, and non-food items. They can cause clogs and damage to the disposal.

Drain cleaning is specific to individual drains within your home like sinks or bathtubs. Sewer cleaning, however, involves the main sewer line which collects all the waste from these drains.

While extremely rare, without proper maintenance, a buildup of gas or pressure can lead to an explosion. Ensure you’re enrolled in a home plumbing protection plan and have regular checks.
