What You Need To Know Before Water Heater Installations

When scheduling a water heater installation, it’s essential to know what to expect during the services. Before water heater replacement services, our plumbers recommend asking the following questions:

What type of water heater is best for my house, a tankless or traditional system?

Is this system the right size for my house?

What is the unit’s energy efficiency rating?

What should I expect during the installation?

Will you turn my water off for the duration of the installation?

Are there rebates or incentives available for this unit?

Is the system under warranty? For how long?

What maintenance is required on the system?

What is the lifespan of the unit?

When you need water heater repairs or a water heater replacement, schedule electric water heater services and gas water heater services with us. Our water heater contractors perform complete hot water heater repairs, hot water tank replacements, water heater maintenance, and tankless water heater installations.

When unexpected plumbing issues occur, ask us about our financing options.

Tips for Handling Clogged Drains

Blocked drains are one of the most common plumbing problems Universal Plumbing encounters in the Augusta, GA, area. When you need clogged drain repairs, the experts at our drain cleaning company recommend understanding the following information:

What causes blockages to form? Clogs can be caused by residue, hair, grease, soap scrum, tree roots, food, or other objects in the drain.

How do plumbers remove clogs? Plumbers can use various methods to remove blockages, including drain snaking, augering, and hydro jetting for stubborn clogs.

Can I remove a clog on my own? If you have a minor clog, you can use a plunger to dislodge the blockage or use a drain snake or auger to remove it. You can also try a homemade solution of baking soda, vinegar, and hot water. However, you should avoid chemical drain cleaners. These can damage the pipes and can cause health risks.
