We all may not like or like to deal with plumbing issues in your home or place of business, but simply some plumbing issues are unavoidable. Many other plumbing related emergency issues are as a result of operator error or installer error. To help avoid a many types of plumbing emergency check out our tricks and tips page for useful suggestions in your home. Acqua Plumbing is all about educating our customers and we would like you to know its important to be aware of how to properly use and maintain the all the components of your fixtures, and the operational process of your plumbing system. Acqua Plumbing would like to take a brief moment to inform you about many simply mistakes involving your plumbing fixtures and system. Take a look below and find out several incidences where a small plumbing issue becomes a big problem.

Placing almost anything down the Garbage Disposal

garabage disposal

Your kitchen garbage disposal is equipped to handle a variety of food waste though it is not necessarily intended to dispose of entire meals. Items that get caught in the blades, and items you know shouldn't go into the plumbing system as the name "GARABAGE" doesn't mean that just anything goes into it. Items such as potatoes, bones, coins, etc. The best solution to get rid of the nasty odor that can somtimes be admitted from the disposal is put three tablespoons of Baking sode down the disposal. This helps get rid of the smell and is save for your plumbing system. Keep in mind only small amounts of food wastes should be disposed of in the garabage disposal, this will help keep the item in great condition for years to come!

Faucet Handle Too tight

Faucet issues

If your faucet has a continuous drip, and is losing you money in water bills and lets see an example if your faucet is dripping 10 times a minute in 24 hours it will fill a bucket. Not only is that a huge waste of water, money but the drip will get progressively worse. Over-tightening of your faucet handle can strip, break, or crack the handle, potentially can cause your fixture to break completely. One means to stop the drip would be to shut off the angle stop until the fixture is needed to be used. This should stop the leak, but can be a pain in the neck if you have to do this every time you need to use the faucet. Best solution overall would be to call the educated plumbers at Acqua Plumbing. We are here to help and one of our reps may even be able to diagnose your problem over the phone!!!

Flushing Household Items down the Toilet

Toilet issues

A Toilet ever since its creation was designed and made for dispose of solid human wastes, and liquids. Small children may from time to time try and drop items such as toys, vegtables, or electronics down the toilet. As you may well know these items can sometimes be too large and you may simply just use your hands to take them out, but the smaller items that go down the throat of the toilet can cause a massive blockage. This blockage if it is an item such as a toy needs to be removed, by removing the toilet itself is the only means of removing the item safely as so it doesn't travel down your plumbing systems line.
