Looking to upgrade your shower head? 🛁

The right shower head can improve your showering experience, while also conserving water. The average US household can save about 2,900 gallons of water every year by adding just one low-flow shower head.

Here are 3 reasons to change your old shower head:
1. Better water pressure
2. Lower water usage- Newer model shower heads use less water than their older model counterparts. The lower water usage then results in cheaper water bills.
3. More features - Newer shower heads are available with a wide range of features. Most offer a variety of spray types (including massage settings), plus allow users to personalize the height, angle, and strength of the spray without needing to crack open a toolbox.

This is your sign to go get a new shower head 🚿

Save water 💧

Tips to keep your plumbing running smooth 🚽

Prevent clogs: Avoid flushing anything other than toilet paper down the toilet and use drain strainers in sinks and tubs to catch hair and other debris.

Check for leaks: Regularly check your pipes for leaks, especially in areas that are hidden from view, such as under sinks or behind walls.

Know your shut-off valves: Make sure you know where your main shut-off valve is located in case of a plumbing emergency.

Don't ignore small problems: Addressing small plumbing problems early can prevent them from turning into bigger, more expensive issues.

Hire a professional: When in doubt, call a professional plumber. Trying to fix plumbing problems on your own can sometimes make things worse and result in costly repairs.

By following these tips, you can keep your plumbing system in top shape and avoid unnecessary repairs. And if you do need plumbing help, don't hesitate to call us we're always here to assist you!

Plumbing isn’t something you learn about in school and typically don’t learn about until you experience issues. It is important to know where your main water valve is and what to do if their is an issue.

Burst pipe? If water threatens to enter your living space, it's time to close your main water valve while you wait for us to get there! This can help avoid a big expensive mess!

Where is it typically located?

The water valve will usually be located inside the house in the basement or crawl space. If it’s in the basement, you will typically find it near the front foundation wall. The valve is usually located close to where the water main enters your home. If the valve isn’t there, you may find it near the water heater or furnace.

Keep your home safe 🏡

Clogged pipes? Are you using chemical drain cleaners ?

Chemical drain cleaners are extremely toxic and damaging to your plumbing.

The heat created by the chemical reaction is more than your drains are designed to take. Corroded, aging plumbing can easily breakdown. Pipes can split and the glue holding them together can disintegrate. Your toilet bowl can even crack. Drain cleaner can linger in your pipes far after even a single-use. This can open up the possibility of other chemical cleaners reacting with it and creating harmful fumes.

Here is a helpful tip to unclog drains without the harmful chemicals. Pour 1/2 cup baking soda, followed by 1/2 cup vinegar down drain. Plug drain and let sit for one hour. Then, pour a pot of boiling water down drain

If all else fails call us and we will take care of it for you 🔧

Do you want to make a change for our planet? 🌍

Here are some Eco- Friendly plumbing tips for your home:

1. Install an Efficient Water Heater: It is common for older water heaters to gradually lose energy efficiency with the passing years. Leaks, wear and tear, and poor insulation can all contribute to efficiency losses. Installing a new water heater is often one of the best ways to save energy and reduce costs as well.

2. Go Low-Flow: Many traditional shower heads pump out almost 9.5 liters of water per minute. Of course, much of this water flows down the drain without even hitting your body. Clearly, this level of wastage leaves a lot of room for improvement.

One way to promote water conservation is to replace the more traditional shower heads with low-flow models. These shower heads can reduce water flow down to about 6.5 liters per minute (reducing water consumption by about 30%). The same principle can apply to kitchen and bathroom faucets.

3. Use Water Saving Toilets: Older toilet models use the same amount of water for every flush, no matter the actual amount that is necessary. However, some “green” toilets offer you the option to adjust the amount of water flow according to the need. Water saving toilets can reduce water usage by about 40% (some more, some less); and they can help you to save on your water bill in the process.

4. Make Sure Your Plumbing Pipes Save Energy
Check that your plumbing pipes are the right size and material for their purpose. Steel or PEX pipes are more energy efficient alternatives to plastic or copper pipes, so you may want to consider installing them in place of your current system. On the other hand, if you are on a budget or don’t want to make major changes to your piping system, inexpensive pipe insulators can dramatically reduce heat loss, thus conversing energy and promoting the well-being of the environment.

Be the change you want to see!
