Winter Plumbing Maintenance Tips for Garden Grove Residents: Prevent Frozen Pipes and More

As the winter season approaches, Garden Grove residents need to take proactive steps to maintain their plumbing systems. At Plumbing Services, we understand the importance of preventing common winter plumbing issues, such as frozen pipes, leaks, and clogs. In this blog post, we will discuss some essential winter plumbing maintenance tips to help you protect your home and save money on costly repairs.

Preventing Frozen Pipes

Frozen pipes are a common problem during the winter months, and they can cause significant damage to your home. To prevent frozen pipes, make sure to insulate exposed pipes in unheated areas, such as the garage, basement, or crawlspace. You can also let cold water drip from the faucet served by exposed pipes, or open cabinet doors to allow warm air to circulate.

Drain Cleaning and Maintenance

Drain cleaning and maintenance are crucial during the winter months, as grease and food particles can accumulate and cause clogs. Our drain cleaning services can help you prevent clogs and keep your drains flowing freely. We also recommend running hot water through your drains to clear any debris and using a drain screen to catch hair and other particles.

Water Heater Maintenance

Water heater maintenance is essential during the winter months, as a malfunctioning water heater can leave you without hot water. Our water heater installation services can help you upgrade to a new, energy-efficient water heater. We also recommend checking your water heater's temperature and pressure relief valve to ensure it's working properly.
