Most of the time, homeowners do not think about their plumbing systems until they’re faced with a major plumbing issue. At this point, the situation is usually overwhelming, and you would require emergency plumbing services to fix it. Knowing the basics of your plumbing system, as well as the causes of common plumbing issues can help you deal with them accordingly when they occur. BullsEye Plumbing Heating & Air explains more below:
1. Why Does My Toilet Keep Running?
Your toilet likely continues to run because the flapper inside the toilet tank isn’t sealing properly or the flush valve is damaged or worn out. You can try to jiggle the flapper by shaking the handle. You can also try oiling and tightening the flapper, but this is usually a temporary fix. If your toilet keeps running even after shaking the handle and tightening the flapper, you may need a plumber in Colorado Springs, CO, to replace the flapper.
2. Why Do My Drains Keep Clogging?
After some time, the drains connected to the kitchen sink, toilets, and showers usually clog due to soap, hair, food, grease, beauty products, and other buildup. These clogs act as a wall and prevent the drains from functioning properly. Fortunately, you can avoid these nasty clogs by installing a drain catcher over the drains to catch all the physical debris. However, if the problem persists, you may consider hiring a plumbing company to dislodge the clogs and clean your drains.
3. Why Do I Always Run Out of Hot Water So Fast?
If you notice that your home is running out of hot water quicker than usual, it could be due to a problem with your hot water tank or water heater. Over time, your water heater could be covered with minerals and debris found in the water. This will eventually cause a blockage that will limit the amount of hot water you get in your showers. Consider getting a reputable plumber to inspect your hot water tank and water heater and do the necessary plumbing repairs.
