Frequently Asked

Questions

Our Experts Can Assists You With All Your Plumbing Needs.

CAN A WATER HEATER TANK BE

REPAIRED?

Yes. Once the tank has begun leaking it cannot be repaired: the water heater must be replaced.

HOW DO I KNOW IF I HAVE A

BROKEN WATER LINE OUTSIDE

MY HOUSE?

A broken water line out in the yard may include an excessively high water bill, puddles in your yard or the sound of running water when no faucets or appliances are using water.

THERE IS A VALVE COMING OFF MY

WATER HEATER THAT IS DRAINING

WATER. WHAT DO I DO?

This is called a temperature and pressure relief valve. This is a safety control for your water heater do not cap this valve off. When the pressure builds up inside your water heater past the setting of the valve it starts leaking. If you cap off the valve your water heater could blow up. This has happened several times. If you install a pressure reducing valve you need a thermal expansion tank to accommodate the expansion of the water in your hot water heater being heated.

WHAT IS INSTANT HOT WATER?

Instant Hot Water is a hot water re- circulation system that circulates hot water in your home. When you open a fixture the warm water is there. There is no need to run water down the drain waiting for hot water to arrive. Did you know that hot water re-circulation systems save water, energy and money; the average family of four wastes up to 17,000 gallons of water per year just waiting for hot water to arrive. A hot water re-circulation system eliminates waste and provides the convenience of instant hot water. They work in existing homes, too!

WHAT CAUSES LOW WATER PRESSURE

AND WHAT CAN I DO ABOUT IT?

There are several things that could cause low water pressure, including a partially closed or malfunctioning shut off valve, a crimped water line, or deposits that gather in older galvanized pipes. If your neighbors have strong water pressure, the problem is most likely between the water meter and your home.

I THINK MY TOILET IS LEAKING. IS

THERE A TEST I CAN DO TO CONFIRM

THIS?

Yes! All you have to do is put a few drops of food coloring into your toilet tank. Wait a few minutes and then look in the toilet bowl. If you see that your bowl has the same color, then you’ve got a leak.
