Holiday Plumbing Checklist

There are a few things you can do to prepare your plumbing for the holiday season and reduce the chance that you might need to call Daniels Plumbing  for help. Having extra guests in your home puts extra strain on your plumbing system, but below are a few things you can do beforehand.

Have a Daniels Plumbing Technician inspect your home before the holiday season

A Daniels Plumbing Technician can inspect your home’s plumbing system before the holiday season starts to catch any problems with the plumbing and be sure that it is ready for the extra use that the holidays will bring. We can test all areas of your plumbing system and also check for leaks and other issues with your plumbing.

Clean your plumbing fixtures

Be sure to clean all of your plumbing fixtures before the holiday season starts including your shower, toilets, tubs, faucets and everything else so that water can flow ly and that the fixtures are ready for use. You can use special stainless steel cleaners to clean your faucets off and make everything look nice for your guests.

Don’t overuse the garbage disposal

You can avoid having to call Daniels Plumbing to replace or fix your garbage disposal if you only use it at a minimum this holiday season. Try to throw as much food away as you can rather than down the sink, and we reccomend only using your garbage disposal to dispose of soft foods that can break down easily.

We recommend using trash cans in all the bathrooms

Make sure that your bathrooms have small trash cans where guests can throw away tissues and wipes rather than down the toilet. This will avoid clogging your toilets. Toilet paper is designed to break up in septic systems, but you should encourage your guests to throw away napkins, facial tissues and other types of paper waste in the trash cans.

There are so many different aspects in a home’s plumbing, which include sinks, toilets, drains, washers, dishwashers, central heating systems. It is a long list and one problem can quickly become a huge, expensive mess. You have to consider all the areas of your home that a local plumber would deal with if they were called out.
