Plumbing tips for the home |
Our 24 hour plumbing
service provides a rapid response - yet it's still best to
prevent disasters in the first place. |
ReactFast's 24 hour
plumbers offer you these top tips to prevent plumbing
problems: |
|
Ensure that you know the location of
the stop valve on the incoming water supply and that it
works. You should also make sure that you know the location
of your outside manhole should access be required to your
drains. |
|
In cold weather, take measures to prevent
water pipes from becoming frozen. Open up the hatch to
the roof space to allow some heat to come through from
the house, to keep the cistern from freezing. |
| |
Ensure that all exposed pipes and storage
systems are properly insulated, especially those in the
loft region. |
| |
Do not let dripping taps and ball valves
go unchecked - this is a sure sign that your plumbing
system requires maintenance. |
| |
Stop valves will corrode - check yours
every 3-months. |
| |
Ask your plumber to fit isolation valves
- this will help in emergency situations and can help
to prevent unnecessary damage to your home in case of
a plumbing emergency. |
