Check for Leaks
Regularly inspecting pipes and fixtures for signs of leaks can save you from water damage and expensive repairs. Look for water stains, damp spots, or mold growth around your home, as these can indicate hidden leaks. Pay special attention to areas under sinks, around toilets, and near water heaters.
Install Water Softeners
Hard water can cause scale and sediment accumulation, reducing your plumbing’s efficiency and causing potential damage. If you live in an area with hard water, installing a water softener can prevent mineral buildup in your pipes and appliances.
Inspect Pressure Relief Valves
Once a year, check the pressure relief valve by lifting the test lever and allowing it to snap back. If water flows out, the valve is functioning properly. If not, it may need replacement. This valve is designed to release pressure if it becomes too high, averting potential damage or even explosions.
Flush Water Heaters
Over time, sediment can accumulate at the bottom of your water heater, reducing its efficiency and lifespan. Flushing your water heater annually helps remove this sediment. To flush your water heater, turn off the power supply, attach a hose to the drain valve, and let the water flow out until it runs clear.
Monitor Water Pressure
High water pressure can put a strain on your plumbing system, leading to leaks, burst pipes, and other problems. Use a water pressure gauge to check the pressure in your home; it should be between 40-60 psi. If it’s consistently above this range, contact us to avoid a plumbing emergency.
Maintain Gutters and Downspouts
Ensuring your gutters and downspouts are clear of debris can prevent water from backing up and causing leaks or water damage. Regularly clean your gutters and make sure downspouts direct water away from your home’s foundation to prevent basement flooding and structural damage.
Schedule Professional Inspections
Having a professional plumber from Garrett Plumbing inspect your system annually can catch potential issues before they become emergencies. Our experienced plumbers can identify and address problems that may not be visible to the untrained eye, ensuring your plumbing system remains in excellent condition.
