Are you ready for 2023? As a business owner, there’s no better time to ensure your commercial building is up-to-date on plumbing maintenance. Fortunately, the pros at Stephens Plumbing have created the perfect checklist to ensure everything is in working order.
From checking your pipes and drains to inspecting faucets and water heaters, this guide has all the information you need to ensure your plumbing is up to the challenge of 2023. This guide is also vital for homeowners, so read below to find out how to keep your plumbing system running smoothly.
Water Pressure
Monitoring your water pressure is one of the most important parts of maintaining your plumbing system. Low water pressure can indicate a serious problem, such as clogged pipes or leaks, and high water pressure can cause cracks in joints and seals.
Make sure to monitor your water pressure regularly by using a hose bib gauge or other device, and if you find that it’s unbalanced, contact Stephens Plumbing immediately.
Pipes & Drains
If you want to keep your commercial building or home running smoothly in 2023, it’s essential to inspect all of your pipes and drains regularly. You should look for any signs of corrosion, leaks, or loose connections and check the seals around pipes.
If you don’t have the time or skills to do this yourself, it’s best to call Stephens Plumbing and schedule a professional inspection.
Faucets & Water Heaters
Make sure to inspect your faucets and water heaters regularly, too. Check for leaks around the base of the faucets, and flush out your water heater every six months to prevent buildup inside the tank. If you find any problems with either of these, it’s best to call us.
Valves
Finally, you should check your valves regularly to ensure they’re in good working order. Don’t forget to periodically turn them off and on and check for any signs of corrosion or leaks. If you find any issues, contact Stephens Plumbing immediately—we’ll be happy to help!
Why Prevention Matters
By following this plumbing maintenance checklist, you can ensure that your commercial building or home is ready for the challenges of 2023. Remember, it’s always better to prevent problems than to deal with them once they arise.
In doing so, you can save yourself thousands of dollars in repairs and invaluable time and stress. Prevention can also go a long way in keeping you and either your customers, employees, or family safe.
A malfunctioning plumbing system can be detrimental to any commercial building or home, so make sure you take the time to maintain your plumbing properly. With Stephens Plumbing by your side, you’ll have a reliable partner who can help ensure your plumbing needs are met—for 2023 and beyond!
