THE IMPORTANCE OF REGULAR MAINTENANCE
While calling New Level Plumbing Services to carry out a regular maintenance program on your plumbing system may seem like an avoidable expense, it’s a real money-saver in the long run.
Early Issue Detection
Some plumbing faults happen without warning, but others develop very slowly due to nothing more than age. Particularly if you own an older home in Hillsborough, a thorough check-up of your whole plumbing system, from the inlet valve right through to drainage and including all appliances, water heaters, faucets, water heaters, and toilets, should be done annually.
Cost Savings
Regular inspections may result in several components in the plumbing system being repaired or replaced. Still, plumbing maintenance is much less costly than repairing all the damage caused by leaking pipes, burst water heaters, or blocked drains, which will inevitably occur unless you discover the faults before it’s too late. And on top of the repairs, you’ll still have to replace those components!
Efficient Systems
When New Level Plumbing Services carry out regular check-ups, we use cutting-edge diagnostic equipment to measure performance levels of all electrical and mechanical components, check for leaks, cracks, and blockages in piping and drainage, and ensure the optimal functioning of plumbing systems.
Avoiding Wear and Tear
Plumbing maintenance prevents situations where a malfunctioning component in the system can cause damage to other parts. For example, a faulty pressure-reducing valve may cause the water heater to burst or a washing machine to wear out prematurely. When the system works efficiently, every part of it will do so as well and last longer.
Clean Water Supply
While contaminated water is seldom found in the water supply, there are ways in which it can happen, including bacteria build-up in the inflow pipes, water heater, and supply lines to the various outlets. We specialize in the provision of safe, potable water in Hillsborough, but in your home, regular plumbing maintenance, including the cleaning out of all sediment and debris, will effectively eliminate the problem.
Prevention of Backflows
Contamination also occurs when drainage water feeds back into the plumbing system due to a reversal in relative pressure. Leaking pipes and fixtures can cause these backflow accidents by creating a suction that draws contaminated water back into the home. Regular checks and repairs of all leaks will ensure that backflows are avoided and that water flowing from the faucet in your home is fresh and uncontaminated.
Drainage Check
We use the latest technology to inspect the condition of the drainage system, including cameras linked to smartphones for visuals, thermal imaging, and acoustic leak detection using microphones. There’s no guesswork in our plumbing maintenance–we know precisely what needs repairing.
Water Pressure Assessment
The municipal water supply in Hillsborough is not always constant, so a pressure-reducing valve is fitted at the main inlet to homes to ensure a consistent pressure of about 50 psi. At this level, all appliances, including the water heater, work optimally, and there’s no excess strain on the piping. We’ll check the pressure and ensure the PRV is correctly adjusted.
Water Heater Examination
If the water heater is well looked after, it should last for at least 8 to 10 years. Still, it must be checked regularly for sediment build-up, which can cause erratic water temperatures or noises from the tank and pipes. Next Level Plumbing will also check for discolored water, which is a sign of corrosion, and for any leaking at the base, which signals a faulty inner tank.
WHAT OUR CUSTOMERS SAY
Drain Cleaning
Sludge, fats, oils, and hair are inevitably going to build up in the drains, and regular maintenance will ensure that it’s removed before there’s a blockage. After checking all drains, we use motorized augers and the latest high-pressure hydro-jetting methods to clear obstructions. And as we value the environment, we use only natural, non-toxic drain cleaners in our operation.
Sewer Line Cleaning
If all your drains are clearing slowly or starting to smell, there’s a need to clear your sewer lines. Once the blockage is cleared, using mechanical means such as augurs or high-pressure jets, the sewer line should be treated regularly with enzyme cleaners that are safe to use in order to keep them free flowing.
Spring Checks
Spring is an excellent time to call us to give your plumbing an overall check-over after winter, but we’ll start by checking outdoors for any pipes that the weather might have damaged. All gutters and downpipes and all drains must be clear of debris. Indoors, we’ll check for leaks in pipes, inspect the water heater, turn down thermostats if necessary, and set up your home for summer.
Environmental Commitment
Water Conservation
Water is a scarce asset, especially in the Bay Area, and with restrictions in place in Hillsborough, it’s our responsibility as plumbers to assist the city and our clients by remedying any wastage caused by leaks, drainage problems, poorly maintained water heaters, and faulty temperature and pressure valves. Our maintenance and repair services are just part of what we do to save water in our town.
Safe Cleaning Agents
Chemical drain cleaners are effective but highly toxic, using concentrated acids and other chemicals to eat away blockages in your plumbing system. Unfortunately, some toxins leach back into the soil around septic tanks or into potable water and can be seriously harmful to plants and people. We avoid all toxic chemicals in our operation and rely totally on natural cleaners, eco-friendly products, and non-toxic sealants and adhesives.
