Before the holiday season kicks into full gear, BullsEye Plumbing Heating & Air advises you to prepare your plumbing system. A few common plumbing issues, like clogged drains, can create a lot of extra stress. Here are a few important holiday plumbing tips to remember.
Properly Insulate Your Pipes
It is far too common for temperatures to dip way too low during the holidays. This means your pipes are more vulnerable to freezing this time of year. If a pipe happens to burst, you will need to seek emergency plumbing. Your household will be without running water until a new pipe is installed. However, properly insulating your pipes will help prevent problems.
Use One-Ply Toilet Paper
Think twice before using thick toilet tissue, which is more likely to cause a clog. To clear the blockage, get in touch with our top local professional plumbing company. One-ply toilet paper is typically cheaper and far easier to flush.
Place Trash Cans In the Bathroom
Every year, a nasty toilet backup can happen that requires our plumbing services. The problem often stems from people using the toilet as a trash can. Some of the worst things you could flush include diapers, antibacterial wipes, dental floss, and other personal hygiene products. Be sure to place at least one trash can in every bathroom. This simple step will help prevent your household from tossing the garbage into the toilet.
Install Mesh Screens Over Your Shower Drains
If you’re planning to have guests spend the night this holiday season, take the necessary steps to prevent a clogged tub. Simply installing mesh screens over your shower drains will help collect hair and assure you that you will not have to worry about a clog issue.
Clean Drains
It’s a good idea to have your drains professionally cleaned by a plumber in Colorado Springs, CO, from our team. A clog will be less likely to develop during the holidays.
