Worst Plumbing Nightmares

Scary plumbing issues

Happy Halloween from everyone here at Plumbing Utah Heating & Air. Since today is a special day, we wanted to bring you our style of fright. Below are some of your plumber’s worst nightmares; try not to get too scared.

An overflowing toilet

Don’t get us wrong. Our plumbers love their trade and take great pride in their jobs. That being said, one of the scariest things about being a plumber is dealing with human waste. For home and business owners, one of the most haunting plumbing nightmares comes from an overflowing clogged toilet. How do you protect your family from these evil spirits? This first step is to call a local, trusted drain cleaning company. After the issue has been fixed, ensure your family and guests know not to flush anything down the toilet that is not meant to be there.

A leaking water pipe

The most spine-chilling thing about leaking pipes is that they can wreak havoc silently until signs of their damage can be noticed. Pipes lurk behind walls, under sidewalks, in your basement, below your home, and under sidewalks, driveways, and concrete. Lines in your home or business surround you, so keep your pipes happy to avoid leaks. To protect your home or business, we suggest regularly checking areas of your property that are not frequently visited. Check your water pressure and utility bill if you suspect something is wrong. We can also help provide 24-hour leak security by installing the latest leak prevention technology. These sensors immediately shut off your water at the first sign of a leak; you can do this manually on your mobile phone through a handy app.

Issues with a water utility

The last spooky plumbing issue to keep an eye open for deals with your water utilities. Most of the time, your washer, water heater, water softener, and boiler are dependable and do their job without issue. However, these trusty machines can take a sharp turn for the worse, creating an absolute plumbing nightmare. You can keep sinister specters at bay by making sure that you regularly maintain these units. Make sure you flush your water heater to avoid sediment buildup. Inspect your water heater and a water softener to ensure that small leaks have not occurred around pipes and fittings.
