— FAQ's

Frequently Asked Questions

Low water pressure can be due to various reasons such as a partially closed shut-off valve, mineral buildup in pipes, leaks, or issues with the municipal supply. A plumber can assess and resolve the specific cause.

Periodic plumbing inspections, at least annually, are recommended to catch potential issues early. Additionally, inspections before winter can help prevent frozen pipes and related problems.

Air pockets or trapped air inside the radiator can prevent it from heating properly. Bleeding the radiator to release trapped air is often the solution. If bleeding doesn’t work, there might be sludge buildup, or the system may need balancing by a professional

Installing water-efficient fixtures, insulating pipes, using a programmable thermostat for your hot water system, and regularly maintaining boilers and heaters can improve energy efficiency. Consulting a plumber for advice on energy-saving upgrades is recommended.

First, turn off the water supply at the main valve. Then, clean the area around the leak and use a pipe repair clamp or epoxy putty specifically designed for pipes to seal the leak temporarily. However, it’s advisable to seek a plumber’s assistance for a permanent fix.
