What Are The Signs That You Have A Plumbing Emergency?
Plumbing emergencies can happen at any time, and if you ignore them, they can lead to extensive water damage. Even a minor plumbing problem can quickly spread to other areas of your property, leading to thousands of dollars in repairs. Here are some warning signs that indicate you need immediate attention:
- Your home is being flooded due to leaking pipes
- Your pipes are making some loud banging noises
- Your faucet has no or little water
- Your toilet is overflowing or your drain is running slowly
- Your toilet bowl is overflowing with water
- You suspect a pipe burst, but you're not sure where
How to Spot Water Heater Problems
A water heater heats water for showers, dishwashing, laundry, and more. Most gas water heaters last 8-12 years. While newer models have better technology than older models and are less expensive to run, it may be best to replace an older model with a new one rather than making repairs when it's 10 years old or more.
Here are some common water heater issues:
- Little to no hot water
- Water is rusty-colored or smells bad
- Water temperature fluctuates
- Water heater leaks
- Low hot water pressure
- Frequent strange sounds
If you notice any of these problems, it may be time to have your water heater replaced by a professional.
