Signs You Need Water Heater Repair
Most West Hempstead, NY, residents don’t give a second thought to their water heaters until it breaks down. However, to avoid the inconvenience of being without hot water, learn to identify the warning signs telling you that your water heater is failing so you can call a professional for a repair or replacement. Watch out for:
- Strange noises like banging or groaning coming from the tank.
- Murky or rust-colored water coming out of the hot water tap.
- The lack of hot water.
- Rust around the tank.
- An increase in your heating bills.
- Water leaking from the tank.
All of the above signs point to a water heater that may be on its last legs, and that you should call a plumbing company for hot water heater maintenance.
Our Drain Cleaning Services
Backed up sinks and drains are everyday household annoyances that most people try to solve by themselves. Usually, a plunger or drain cleaning product does the trick, but sometimes, clogs come back no matter what you do. To get your pipes thoroughly cleaned, you need the help of a professional plumber. We use a variety of techniques and tools that reach deep into the system to remove the obstruction so that your pipes flow freely again and remain cleaner longer. Also, our methods are perfectly safe for all plumbing, unlike chemical drain cleaners, which can damage older pipes. To reduce the number of clogs you get, try these tips:
- Use metal mesh filters in your drains to prevent debris from going in.
- Don’t put coffee grounds, cooking grease, or fat down the drain; instead, put those materials in a compost heap or the trash.
- Be mindful of what you flush down the toilet. Flush only human waste and toilet paper.
- Call a plumber for regular drain cleaning to reduce the chance of sludge buildup and keep your drains free and clear.
