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

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

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

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.
If you are experiencing issues with your plumbing system
or fixtures do not hesitate to call Acqua Plumbing.
