The sanitary system is essential for the quality of life and offers us a comfort that we did not even dream of 100 years ago. But sometimes, even those of us who are into regular maintenance can experience all sorts of inconveniences due to damage and malfunctions that may require the intervention of a seasoned Denver plumbing service.
However, there are a few things you can do and things you need to know, to make sure your plumbing system is in good working order and to prevent future damage.
Clogged pipes
Both in the bathroom and in the kitchen, you should use a filter that captures food debris, hair and other things that you could drop in the shower, bathtub or sink. Also, do not throw coffee grounds in the kitchen sink or vegetable fats or oils.
Eroded pipes
If you know that your home has a decades-old sanitary system, it is advisable to start preparing for its replacement.
Freezing pipes
As long as winter temperatures have not reached a constant value, your home is vulnerable to a widespread phenomenon: freezing and bursting pipes. Here’s what you can do to prevent it:
- Insulate the pipes
- Install a defrost system
- Maintain an optimal and constant temperature in the house
- Let the tap drip very-very slowly
