Is Your Plumbing Extreme Weather-Proof?
Around this time of year, extreme weather can really put your plumbing to the test. The freezing temperatures can have devastating effects on the efficiency in which your plumbing runs. If not monitored, it can become bothersome to fix. With the right precautions, you can make sure your home plumbing system runs without a hitch, and in turn, saves you the costly repairs.
Holiday Plumbing Tips
Whether you realize it or not, you’re putting a lot of strain on your plumbing during the holidays. All the oils, fats, and skins that go down your drain build up, and before you know it, you’re frantically calling your trusted Stephens Plumbing and Heating professional to work their magic on your suffering plumbing.
“Out of sight, out of mind.”
Considering that much of your plumbing isn’t as visible as other parts of your home, like your windows and appliances, it doesn’t mean that you shouldn’t pay attention to them. Often, people don’t realize how many things are affected by plumbing, and in turn don’t realize how simple monitoring can make all the difference to the longevity of your system.
