Why do you need to replace polybutylene pipes?

Many homeowners do not know the differences between pipe types. As an alternative to copper pipes, polybutylene pipes are flexible pressure piping systems. They are common in water mains, mobile homes, and commercial structures.

Because installing polybutylene pipes was so easy between 1978 to 1995, millions of homes throughout the U.S were constructed with polybutylene pipelines. It has since been discovered that as these pipes age, they react to water-soluble oxidants. This generates degradation and leaks within the pipes, resulting in severe damage to the building structure and its surroundings.

Polybutylene pipes also influences a home’s real estate value. After 10-15 years, these pipelines begin to display evidence of serious deterioration. Because new homeowners consider the longevity of their new home, many potential buyers may deny purchasing a home equipped with polybutylene pipes.

We understand the value of your home and its pipe system. As our speciality, entrust Greenlee Plumbing, Inc. to replace your polybutylene pipe system with efficiency and ease.

When is it time to replace your water heater?

At some point of every homeowner’s life, they will be faced with having to replace their water heater. It is imperative to be mindful of the signs that may indicate whether it should be repaired or replaced.

Water heaters are appliances that do not have complications that resolve on their own. Being knowledgeable on your water heater will prevent you from spending a significant amount of money on replacing it when it really only needed a few repairs.

However, there are some factors that despite maintenance will render the heater as faulty and will require replacement.

These include:

Life expectancy. If your heater is over 10 years old, you should consider replacement.
Leaks. If leaks are found at the base of the tank, that is an indication that you should replace your water heater.
No hot water. The fact that your water is not heating is a clear sign that your water heater is not functioning properly.

When should you have your drains cleaned?

Drains, like every other part of your home, needs to be routinely cleaned. Many do not realize the importance of having pipelines professionally cleaned. Be mindful of any indication it may that time of year.

The signs of a required drain cleaning include:

Frequent clogs. If you find yourself with your plunger in your hand more often than you like, then your drains may not be flowing accurately. A cleaning will ensure that your pipes are working to its full potential.

Rotting smell. Having a rotting stench coming from the vents of your drains is a sure sign that your drains are behind on a cleaning.

Slow draining. Having water take longer than normal to empty out from sinks and your tubs is an indication a cleaning is needed.

Overflowing water. If you’re taking a shower and find yourself ankle deep in water, then your drains are backed up. A professional drain cleaning is required at this point.
