Prepare for Winter
Frozen pipes are a major cause of plumbing emergencies in colder climates. When water freezes inside a pipe, it expands and can cause the pipe to burst. To help prevent this, drain your outdoor faucets at the beginning of the winter. When it is very cold outside, let a trickle of cold water drip from faucets served by pipes on exterior walls. You can also consider insulating exposed pipes in attics, basements, and crawl spaces.
Know Where Your Main Water Shut-Off Is
In the event of a plumbing emergency, you need to act fast. Knowing the location of your home’s main water shut-off valve can save you from serious water damage. Make sure everyone in your household knows how to turn off the water in case of an emergency.
Schedule Regular Professional Inspections
The expert plumbers at McMahon Plumbing & Heating can identify potential issues, such as deteriorating pipes, outdated fixtures, or weak connections, before they become costly emergencies. Routine inspections are a small investment that can save you from a larger plumbing disaster.
