Common Plumbing & Heating Questions
How often should I service my boiler?
It’s recommended to service your boiler annually to ensure it runs efficiently and safely.
What should I do if my pipes freeze?
If your pipes freeze, turn off the water supply and gently thaw the pipes with a hairdryer or warm towels. Avoid using open flames.
Why is my radiator cold at the bottom?
A cold radiator at the bottom usually indicates a build-up of sludge. Bleeding the radiator or a power flush can resolve this issue.
How can I prevent my drains from clogging?
Regularly clean your drains and avoid pouring grease or large food particles down the sink to prevent clogs.
What are the signs of a gas leak?
Signs of a gas leak include a rotten egg smell, hissing sounds near gas lines, and dead houseplants. If you suspect a leak, evacuate immediately and call emergency services.
How can I improve my home's heating efficiency?
Improve heating efficiency by insulating your home, servicing your heating system regularly, and using programmable thermostats.
What should I do if my boiler pressure is too low?
If your boiler pressure is too low, you can usually re-pressurize it using the filling loop. Refer to your boiler’s manual for specific instructions.
Why is my hot water not working?
Common reasons for no hot water include a faulty thermostat, broken heating element, or issues with the boiler. A professional inspection can identify the problem.
How do I know if my heating system needs replacing?
Signs that your heating system needs replacing include frequent breakdowns, rising energy bills, and the system being over 15 years old.
