How can an overhead sewer system help prevent basement flooding during heavy rainfall or sewer backups?
An overhead sewer system can help prevent basement flooding during heavy rainfall or sewer backups by raising the level of the sewer pipes above the basement floor. This prevents sewage from backing up into the basement, as gravity allows the sewage to flow out of the basement through the elevated pipes.
What are the common signs that indicate a problem with my kitchen plumbing that I should be aware of?
Common signs of a problem with kitchen plumbing include slow draining sinks, gurgling noises coming from the drains, foul odors coming from the sink or drains, water pooling around the sink or dishwasher, and low water pressure in the faucet.
How long does a sewer camera inspection typically take to complete?
A sewer camera inspection typically takes 1-2 hours to complete.
What are the benefits of investing in a video camera sewer and drain inspection for preventative maintenance of my plumbing system?
Investing in a video camera sewer and drain inspection for preventative maintenance of your plumbing system can help identify potential issues such as clogs, leaks, tree root intrusion, and other problems before they escalate. This proactive approach can save you time and money by addressing issues early on and preventing costly repairs or emergencies in the future.
What are some DIY water heater maintenance tasks I can perform regularly to keep my unit running smoothly?
Some DIY water heater maintenance tasks you can perform regularly include flushing the tank to remove sediment buildup, checking and replacing the anode rod if necessary, testing the pressure relief valve, and inspecting for any leaks or corrosion.
