Top commercial plumbing services in Geelong, Australia? How to solder a leaky pipe: If you need to solder a fitting while water from a leak is dripping out of the pipe, here’s an old plumber’s trick that’ll get you outta trouble. Grab a piece of white bread and shove it down as far as you can inside the pipe. The bread will stop the leak while you solder the fitting and will then (eventually) dissolve inside the pipe.
A ventilated crawl space is often a problem in the winter. Seal off crawl space vents with thick cardboard and duct tape. This will protect any pipes that run through the crawl space. In addition, seal the access to the crawl space to prevent cold air from entering the space. If you have a basement instead of a crawl space, inspect the windows to ensure they are not letting cold air in.
Making sure your heating works properly is one of the first steps to take before the cold season starts. Sometimes, though, even though you check the system at the start of fall, accidents can happen and your heating system may stop working in the middle of the winter. Have you been stuck in a snow storm before without heating? It’s not a great place to be… Give us a call next time you have a heating emergency. Whether there’s a faulty connection or the heater has been burned out, our team of Geelong plumbers will fix it for you on the spot. Discover more information at Geelong Plumbing Services.
Don’t pour grease down the drain: After cooking a sizzling pan of bacon, the worst thing you could do to your pipes is to pour that grease down the drain. Why? Because the fat from the grease will coat the pipes and build up over time, which will eventually cause a huge clog—potentially both at home and in city-owned pipes.
