Autumn is a season of transition, and just as we switch out our summer wear for warmer clothes, our plumbing also demands a bit of attention. At Holloway Plumbing, we're here to help ensure your home is prepared for the chillier months. Here are some pointers to consider:
Outdoor Faucets and Hoses: Before the first freeze, ensure outdoor faucets are turned off and hoses are disconnected. Drain any residual water to prevent freezing and pipe bursts.
Water Heater TLC: Cold weather puts extra demand on your water heater. Now's the time to have it checked, serviced, or even flushed to ensure efficiency and longevity.
Gutter Clean-Up: As leaves fall, gutters can get clogged. Ensure they're clean to prevent water build-up which can freeze and damage your roof and walls.
Exposed Pipes: Insulate any exposed pipes, especially if they're in unheated areas of the home like basements or garages. This will reduce the risk of freezing.
Sewer Lines: Fall is a good time to have your sewer lines checked, especially with the falling leaves and roots that can intrude and block them.
Drain Maintenance: Regularly clean out your drains, especially with the upcoming holiday season where more grease and waste could end up down the sink.
Remember, prevention is better than cure. Regular check-ups can save you from unexpected and expensive repairs down the line. Need assistance? Holloway Plumbing's team of experts is always ready to help. Here's to a cozy and hassle-free autumn! 🍁🔧
