Why Am I Always Running Out of Hot Water?
An old and unreliable heater is a top culprit to your hot water troubles. With continued use, your water heater will build up sediment. This material settles at the bottom of the tank, where the heating element is located, preventing it from working efficiently.
That’s why we recommend regular water heater maintenance. This plumbing service is essential to keep hot water flowing, maintain the heater’s longevity, and minimize the risk of a breakdown. Here’s what a typical water heater maintenance checklist looks like:
- Washing the sediment
- Checking the anode rod
- Testing the water quality
- Tightening loose drain valves
- Insulating the heater and pipes
We know water heaters can work almost perfectly for years without a service appointment. However, once-a-year plumbing maintenance can go a long way in keeping the threat of lukewarm or cold showers at bay. Let the professional plumbers at Scott Hale inspect your water heater, repair what needs fixing, and maintain your heater’s integrity for years to come.
Why Is the Flow of My Kitchen Faucet Less Than Normal?
Clogged aerators and cartridges are common causes of low water pressure from faucets. The aerator, which controls the water stream, is the point at which the water flows out. On the other hand, the cartridge is located under the sink handle and is responsible for allowing the beginning and end of water flow through a hole.
Your faucet aerators and cartridges can get blocked by hard water deposits such as calcium, magnesium, and sand. This will result in low water pressure and less than usual flow from your kitchen faucets. Usually, cleaning out the fixture will do the trick, and our plumbing company can be of service.
We also recommend cleaning aerators and cartridges after major plumbing construction work, such as a service line replacement, which can release dirt particles that clog your faucets. Additionally, lead pipes can flake off, and the particles can find their way to your aerator. If you have lead plumbing, consider cleaning your faucets every six months to minimize the risk of lead in your drinking water.
My Garbage Disposal Stinks. How Can I Get Rid of the Smell?
Excess food waste can get lodged and build up in your garbage disposal’s nooks and crannies, causing a terrible smell which you can eliminate with simple home-made solutions, including:
Citrus Peelings
Place ice cubes and a handful of orange, lemon, lime, grapefruit, or other citrus fruit peels in your garbage disposal and grind them for half an hour. You can add dishwashing liquid when the system is still running, and afterward, run cold water for a few seconds.
The acidic citrus fruits contain antibacterial and antifungal oils that kill bacteria and whisk off the odor. In addition, they leave the garbage disposal with a delightful, citrusy scent.
Baking Soda Plus White Vinegar
Pour a quarter cup of baking soda into the garbage disposal, followed by one cup of vinegar. The solution will form effervescence, which kills odor-causing germs and flushes mineral deposits hosting smelly bacteria. Allow the bubbling to continue for a few minutes before running cold water.
Any environmentalist will love this remedy. It’s among the greenest and most natural solutions for freshening your garbage disposal.
Scouring Powder
Sprinkle about half a cup of the scented scouring powder brand you love into your garbage disposal and add some cold water. Let that sit for a quarter of an hour, then run the garbage disposal with more water.
The scouring powder will scrape off dirt from the impellers as its ingredients clear the bad smell. However, check the powder’s manual or instructions to ensure it’s safe to use on your machine.
If the above tricks don’t work, it might be time to consider professional plumbing services. Foods such as meats, stringy fruits/vegetables, and fats can clog your disposal and necessitate plumbing help. In such a case, don’t hesitate to contact Scott Hale to reach an expert plumber for extra assistance with fixing your garbage disposal.
Why Does My Water Appear Yellow?
Yellow color in water often means there’s rust formation from the oxidation of iron. Our water systems naturally contain small amounts of oxygen and iron that can combine, form rust, and contaminate the water, hence the yellow colorization. While this yellow-colored water rarely causes health issues, it can become problematic after a while.
Sediment from a rust-contaminated water supply system can build up and settle in the inner walls of your water pipes. That can cause the plumbing walls to disintegrate and fail, so when water flows under high pressure, your pipes may crack and leak.
The above problems often accompany old plumbing systems. If you’re in such a predicament, trust our plumbing inspection company to assess your pipes intimately and provide professional pipe replacement service. We can also install a filter to clean water from the city supply and handle regular maintenance that keeps your water supply line in optimal condition.
Pro-tip: Don’t use bleach to clean the yellow stains on your sinks or faucets. It can embed the colorization and cause permanent staining.
