Common reasons to call an emergency plumber

No hot water

Having no hot water can be extremely frustrating for anyone, especially during winter or if you have a family with kids. In any event, you will want to get your hot water back on as soon as possible. Whether you have an electric, gas, instantaneous or heat pump hot water system, one of the emergency plumbers from Inline Plumbing can come to your place and quickly inspect, test and repair the water heater.

Blocked sewer drain

Another plumbing problem that will require your plumber’s assistance is a blocked sewer drain. It is common practice to use a high-pressure water jetter, a machine that can clear virtually any drain blockage. These drain jetters, with their turbocharged cutting heads, also often come equipped with a CCTV camera.

Broken water pipe

We all know the stress and frustration of having a broken water pipe. Your emergency plumber will be able to promptly fix the problem and test for any leaks. Providing the job has been completed successfully, your plumber should detect that there are no further leaks coming from the welded pipe.

Emergency hot water system replacement & repair

Regardless of the type of hot water system, the unit will tend to begin leaking after approximately 10 years. If you’re experiencing problems with your hot water system, get in touch with Inline Plumbing and we’ll be able to send out one of our emergency plumbers to repair or replace the unit.

If your hot water systems have packed it in, we can advise you if your hot water tank can be repaired cheaply or if the whole hot water heater unit needs to be replaced.

When thinking about a new hot water unit the team at Inline Plumbing aim to provide you with the most ideal hot water system solution for your household needs. The majority of hot water heater tanks are run on gas or electricity, with each hot water system having their different positives and negatives.

If it happens that a new hot water tank is needed in an after-hours call out and all suppliers are closed, Inline Plumbing will install a temporary hot water unit, which we carry on our fully stocked company vehicles.

Leaking toilet cistern

A leaking toilet cistern is yet another annoying plumbing situation which can be easily rectified by your emergency plumber. The most common repair to a leaking toilet cistern would be to have the inlet valve, flexi pipe and outlet washer replaced. This is usually the case when there is a leak into the toilet pan.

You may also be confronted by a leak coming from behind the toilet, going onto the bathroom floor. This is where you may need for the flush-cone to be replaced, which may have perished.

Regardless of the problem, your Inline emergency plumber will be able to assess the leak and advise you as to what needs doing.

How to avoid a plumbing emergency

Often, experiencing a plumbing emergency is something that’s totally beyond our control. In some cases, however, plumbing emergencies can be prevented. Here are some simple steps you can take to help prevent a plumbing emergency.

Safeguard against frozen pipes

When cold weather hits town, it is time to disconnect any hoses from your outside taps. Water in hoses is likely to freeze and expand which can potentially cause taps and connecting pipes to also freeze and break. This is particularly the case in the colder areas of Australia such as ACT.

By rolling up any garden hoses and storing them for the winter, you may potentially be able to help prevent unexpected emergency plumbing repairs.

Preventing a blocked toilet

When your toilet is not flushing properly, it is important to identify and isolate the problem quickly. Getting on top of it straight away may prevent the problem from becoming more serious. Depending on the problem, you may be able to fix the toilet yourself before you call in an emergency plumbing service. However, a serious toilet flushing problem will require the professional services of an experienced plumber and attempting to fix it yourself may cause more issues.

If you’re unsure about whether or not you need to hire an emergency plumber for your blocked toilet, call Inline Plumbing on 1300 465 463 and one of our experts will be able to offer advice.

To prevent a blocked toilet, it’s important to clean it regularly and avoid flushing any non-flushable items.

Preventing blocked drains

Do not put cooking oils, grease, fat or food scraps down the kitchen drain, as they’ll create a build-up in the pipes. Correctly dispose of these items in the bin or compost.

Drain and sink strainers can be a useful tool that will catch hair, food and other debris before they go down the drain and become clumped.

By understanding what you can and can not throw or flush down the toilet or sink, you can save yourself from costly repairs.

The importance of hiring a fully licenced plumber

This article refers to an extraordinary true story concerning a young child, her nanny, and a hot water system.

Every household needs to monitor their hot water unit on a regular basis.

Most people do not take the very simple steps outlined in this article, to ensure that their water heater is performing in the way that it should. In short, though, it is by the regular servicing and monitoring of your hot water unit, that you will in essence, extend the life of your water heater.

That said, it is also of utmost importance that you find a reputable fully licenced plumber that you can call on to attend to the problem instantly, especially, in an emergency.

A fully licensed plumber, he should be able to assist with any servicing, repair work, or even a complete replacement of your water heater, when the need arises in future.

 

Hot water system home explosion

Back to the “true story”, it was an explosion of a hot water system that was caught on camera, which had put the lives of a 3 year old toddler and her nanny at risk. The story which was recently posted on the FOX 29 news website, reported the incident to have occurred on the 18th March, 2015, in Bellingham, Washington.

This short story was titled : Caught on camera : boiler explodes inside home. The massive eruption of the water heater, situated in the basement of the home, had caused significant damage to the basement wall, “sending shrapnel everywhere”. Fortunately, both child and nanny had narrowly escaped any harm, as the explosion had also reached into the child’s playroom.

According to the report, as a result of the hot water unit erupting, the first floor level had been “raised”, and it had caused “a crack in every wall”.

So, what do you need to do ?

• You need to test your water heater’s pressure relief valve every 6 to 12 months to ensure that it is working properly. All you have to do is just lift up the lever part of the way, then simply let go, which will allow it to snap back quickly. Once tested, if you can hear that it is discharging water, then you know it’s all ok. If not, then the valve would need to be replaced.
• Look out for any rust build up within the seat of the pressure relief valve, as this rust could lead to you having a faulty valve, which would need to be replaced.
• Attend to any leakage promptly (by phoning your plumber), be it a leak from a valve, or a pipe connected to the hot water system, or, of course, the water heater itself.
• In addition to this regular servicing of your relief valve, it is critical that you get a professional onboard. Make sure that he is fully licensed. The importance of hiring a fully licensed plumber is self explanatory, and we trust that bringing this true story to your attention, has made you even more aware of this.
