Maintenance Checklist
The average home or business owner knows little to nothing in regards to their home or business plumbing. While calling a plumber is the go-to for many, there are a few important tasks you can perform yourself. Follow this maintenance checklist to lay a solid foundation for your plumbing system maintenance.
- Find the water shut-off valve to prevent accidental flooding.
- Listen to your drains and fixtures. If one sounds ‘off’ it may mean a clog is developing.
- Routinely clean out the P-traps under sinks to prevent clogs.
- Check tanks on your toilets to ensure they are draining properly.
- Check around any fixtures for signs of water damage.
