4 Common Summer Plumbing Problems and How to Fix Them

7/15/2021

 
Picture
Everyone’s excited about the warmth that summer brings. But although it’s the best time to relax and unwind, the same can’t be said for your plumbing systems. With humidity levels and temperature rising, you must be prepared to handle any plumbing emergency that might happen.
As a way to prepare yourself, here are four problems you might encounter in the summer months and what you can do to fix them:

1) Flooding Around the Property

Though summer comes with heat and humidity, it can bring in rains and flooding, too. May it be for residential or commercial properties, flash flooding and continuous rainfall will surely bring damage to your basement.
Plumbing experts can help prevent flooding by adding extra drainage systems to prevent water build-up. Moreover, they can install a sump pump for you as an extra safety measure.

2) Filled-up Sewage Lines

When summer storms rush in, local sewer lines can fill up quite quickly. In this case, you should think about sewer maintenance, especially if you live in a building with tons of occupants. For the best results, you can hire an expert industrial plumbing service to install drain plugs so that the draining will not flow back up through the pipes.

3) Drain Systems Getting Clogged

Keep in mind that there are numerous substances that can go down your drain pipes. Beyond water, you might encounter grease, oils, gunk, and other things that might wind up through the local sewer lines. Cleaning can help you get rid of some of them, but some will still end up stuck within the building pipes.

To stop this gunk from accumulating, you have to schedule regular maintenance. If you fail to establish a better routine, the build-up can ruin and damage your plumbing as a whole.

However, when build-up happens, you can call in the plumbers from 24 Hour Plumbing & Heating to perform drain cleaning for you. They will be able to flush down through the drain system and use water pressure to get the stubborn gunk out. In other scenarios, plumbing snakes can help pull in clogs from down the drain.

4) Hose Bib Wear and Tear

Another part of your draining system that you should pay attention to is the hose bib. They serve as the bridge to connect water from outside indoors. Indeed, they play a very crucial role in maintaining a good water supply system. As a property owner, it is very important that you schedule regular maintenance so that you can check if they are still in the best state.

Other than that, you can add an extra level of care for your property by searching for leaks. Wear and tear are usually visible through rust and other damages, but sometimes that’s not enough. You can check for leaks by turning the hose and seeing continuous drips. If you find some damage, you can have plumbers replace the hose bibs before the leaks get worse.

Conclusion

Protect your property against summertime plumbing problems by taking preventative measures. By considering the common plumbing problems mentioned above, you can avoid them from getting worse. With most issues calling for particular skills, make sure that you have an emergency plumber ready to assist!
