As we step into the New Year, it’s the perfect time to make resolutions that will improve your home, save you money, and prevent unnecessary stress. At Roto-Rooter, we know how important it is to keep your plumbing in top-notch condition. Here are a few easy yet impactful plumbing tips to start your year off right:
1. Check for Hidden Leaks
Leaky faucets, toilets, and pipes can waste gallons of water and increase your utility bills. Take a moment to inspect your home for any signs of leaks, such as damp spots, mold, or water stains. If you find something suspicious, don’t wait—give us a call to fix it before it becomes a bigger problem.
2. Invest in Drain Maintenance
Resolve to avoid clogged drains this year! Never pour grease, coffee grounds, or food scraps down your kitchen sink. For extra protection, use a drain strainer to catch hair and debris in bathroom drains. If you’re dealing with slow drains, a professional cleaning might be just what you need to keep things flowing smoothly.
3. Upgrade Your Water Heater
Is your water heater over 10 years old? It might be time to consider an upgrade. A new energy-efficient model can help lower your energy bills and ensure you always have hot water when you need it.
4. Winterize Your Pipes
Even though the holidays are over, cold temperatures can still pose a risk to your plumbing. Insulate exposed pipes and keep your home heated to avoid costly burst pipes. If you’re not sure where to start, we’re here to help with winter plumbing prep.
5. Schedule a Plumbing Check-Up
Just like you go to the doctor for a check-up, your home’s plumbing needs regular care too. A professional inspection can uncover potential issues before they turn into expensive repairs.
