To keep your drains flowing smoothly, be mindful of what goes down them. Avoid putting grease, oil, coffee grounds, or large food particles down kitchen sinks. Use drain strainers in sinks and showers to catch hair and debris. Regularly flush drains with hot water to help break down buildup. For a natural cleaning method, use a mixture of baking soda and vinegar monthly. Instead of harsh chemicals, consider using enzyme-based drain cleaners for routine maintenance.
An unexpected increase in your water bill often indicates a hidden leak. Running toilets, dripping faucets, underground pipe leaks, and malfunctioning water heaters are common culprits. If you notice a spike in your water bill, carefully inspect your plumbing fixtures for any signs of leakage. For thorough detection of hidden leaks, it's advisable to call a professional plumber who can perform a comprehensive inspection of your plumbing system.
To protect your pipes from freezing in cold weather, start by insulating exposed pipes, especially in unheated areas like basements and crawl spaces. Keep your home heated, even when you're away, to maintain a consistent temperature. On extremely cold nights, allow faucets to drip slightly to keep water moving through the pipes. Open cabinet doors under sinks to allow warm air to circulate around pipes. Lastly, seal any cracks or openings where cold air can enter near pipes to provide an extra layer of protection.
If your toilet is overflowing, act quickly to minimize water damage. First, turn off the water supply valve located near the base of the toilet. Remove the tank lid and lift the float to stop water flow. Once the immediate crisis is averted, use a plunger to attempt to clear the clog. If plunging doesn't work, try using a toilet auger to break up stubborn blockages. For persistent clogs that resist these methods, it's best to call a professional plumber to avoid potential damage to your plumbing system.
