It’s easy to know you have a problem when your pipes break and water sprays everywhere. Frozen pipes don’t always reach that point, however. To help you avoid water damage during winter months, our NATE-certified team recommends that you get in the habit of checking your plumbing system, particularly the exposed pipes in your home and basement. Keep an eye out for these four telltale signs, especially during extended spells of cold weather:
- Water pressure noticeably drops when you run the faucets
- You can’t draw water at all
- Frost has visibly accumulated on exposed pipes
- Unusual smells emanate from pipes & drains, signaling a blockage
The best way to stop water from freezing in the first place is to add exterior insulation to exposed pipes. This practice traps warmth inside, preventing water from turning to ice and putting pressure on your piping.
Preventative maintenance can extend the life of your Hennepin, Ramsey or Washington County water heater, which is why we include these devices as a standard part of our
home plumbing inspections and service plans. If you’ve got a water heater problem and you’re not thrilled about taking another freezing-cold shower, our service team also performs fast emergency repairs at affordable rates. Water heaters are tricky to troubleshoot, so rest easy and leave that task to our century-old company. Our plumbing pros will diagnose and fix the problem in no time.
The importance of water heater cleaning and annual maintenance can’t be understated. Many of our customers live in areas with hard water, which leads minerals like calcium to build up in pipes and water heater tanks. Flushing sediment buildup from the water heater slows down tank deterioration, saves energy and reduces emergency breakdowns. If you are not comfortable tackling your water heater cleaning project, call
(651) 292-0124 to schedule maintenance today.
