Kitchen Plumbing Maintenance

  • Check under the sink for water leaks
  • Don’t put fibrous foods down the disposal
  • Turn on water and disposal before putting food down the disposal
  • Run the water for about 15 seconds after using the disposal
  • To conserve hot water run your dishwasher at night

Bathroom Plumbing Maintenance

  • Check under sinks for water leaks
  • We don’t recommend using bath oils as they can cause build up in the drains and reduce the flow of water
  • Install a drain screen to stop hair and other items from going down the drain and causing a clog
  • Clog removing chemicals can corrode your pipes. Use them sparingly, if at all.
  • Flush only human waste and toilet paper down the toilet. Even “flushable” wipes should not be flushed

Winter Plumbing Maintenance

  • Protect outdoor valves, hose bibs, and other water piping
  • Open kitchen and bathroom cabinets if you’re expecting a freeze
  • Insulate piping in your crawl space, basement, and/or attic
