Questions
When should I consider a whole-house re-pipe?
Consider re-piping when experiencing frequent leaks, low water pressure, or if your copper pipes are over 20 years old and showing signs of deterioration.
How long do water heaters typically last?
Tank water heaters last 8-12 years while tankless models can last up to 20 years with proper maintenance and timely anode rod replacements.
What's the best piping material for homes?
Uponor PEX-A piping offers superior durability and flexibility, resisting cracks and leaks better than traditional copper or CPVC systems.
What temperature should my water heater be set to?
Factory settings at 120°F provide safe, efficient operation. Higher temperatures up to 140°F may be appropriate for households without young children.
Why does my toilet keep running?
Common causes include faulty flappers, misadjusted fill valves, or worn internal components that require professional diagnosis and replacement.
Do you install water filtration systems?
Yes, we install Safety Zone Water Systems for whole-house water treatment, improving water quality for both residential and commercial properties.
