One of the hardest working gadgets in your home is your sump pump. Often found in the basement corner, a sump pump is your first line of defense against flood damage. It can prevent a serious disaster from happening to your home. Therefore, it is imperative that it be installed correctly and maintained.

When your sump pump is working, it will continually gather up water from your basement and pump it out to keep it dry, especially if below the water table. Problems are more likely to occur with excess rain after a prolonged dry period, so if you have experienced a drought recently, this makes a sump pump inspection even more critical. Sump pumps that run frequently will need to be inspected more often, but early Spring is often an ideal time to inspect.

Sump pump features can include manual or automatic operation, an output at various levels of horsepower, and water level sensors. It's best to have a sump pump installed by a professional due to the costly consequences of a malfunctioning sump pump.

Back it up. You should always have a back-up in addition to your primary sump pump. The back-up sump pump kicks in to prevent costly water damage should there be a failure in the main pump, or the power goes out. If you do not have a back-up pump, you should seriously consider investing in one.  Always have your back-up sump pump checked in addition to the primary one.

Low Flow Toilets

Toilets that use less than 1.6 gallons per flush are certified under The US Environmental Protection Agency program called WaterSense. This program was created to help with our nation’s water conservation concerns. According to the EPA, replacing a single pre-1980 toilet with one that measures up to WaterSense standard can save an average home 18,000 gallons of water.

When water contains high levels of minerals like magnesium and calcium, it is known as hard water. Though not harmful to one’s health, hard water can cause major problems for your water-using appliances and your home’s plumbing system. Checking for buildup or mineral deposits around the openings of your showerheads and faucets is a great way to detect if you have hard water. We recommend installing a home water softener if you find that you do have hard water.

Complete Home Water Purification. Installing a whole-home water purification system is a great way to ensure clean water for your health and plumbing. A home water purification system does more than simply protect your plumbing—it also provides you with great-tasting clean, great-tasting water.

Getting Rid of Hard Water. Water softeners help transform your hard water and increase the life of your water heater by relying on “ion exchange,” substituting the minerals that make water hard, such as iron, magnesium, and calcium with sodium chloride.

Soap Scum. When hard water and soap are combined, soap scum forms. This is caused by the fatty acids in soap mixing with the hard water minerals. The scum can stiffen or discolor your laundry, scale cookware, and make your dishes spotty.

Mineral Deposits. Limescale (magnesium) and other minerals such as calcium are incredibly harsh on household water-heating appliances like coffeemakers and dishwashers and seriously damage your water heater. These minerals insulate the water, leading to an increase in your water bill, reduced efficiency and, ultimately, water heater damage.

Water can be full of chlorine, parasites, chemicals, and minerals that not only damage your home’s appliances and pipes, but makes the water unhealthy for people. Having clean water is a fundamental basic for the life of your plumbing systems as well as the health of your family.

Water Problems. Water that contains impurities can irritate your skin, cause an unpleasant taste or odor, and cause serious health problems.

Limescale deposits can damage and clog your water heater, dishwasher, and other water-using appliances. Hard water, which contains limescale and calcium, can discolor your laundry, and cause tile scum and spotty dishes.

Sinks & Showers

There are plenty of functional and water-efficient fixtures that manufacturers are now offering in sink and shower design. New advancements like aerators which reduce the amount of water needed to maintain pressure by mixing water from the faucet with air and low-flow showerheads assist in water conservation.

Call Miami Plumber today at 305-985-5138 and find out about the savings and benefits of installing new fixtures in your kitchen or bathroom.

Toilets

According to the EPA, flushing toilets consumes about 30% of the average home’s indoor water. Because of this, it’s important to maintain your toilet for long-term money savings and water conservation.

Dual-flush toilets and low-flow toilets are two examples of the advances in technology driving more water-efficient alternatives around the home, including the bathroom.

Manufacturers are also offering greater convenience and comfort options when it comes to toilets.  Features like bidet-like functions, mechanically controlled seats and lids, heated seats, automated flushing, and other spa-like features are now available.

By installing a small electric water heater under your kitchen sink, you can save precious time by never having to wait for water to boil.  An instant hot water dispenser delivers hot water instantly from a sink-top spout.

It may be time to install a new garbage disposal if your current disposal isn't powerful enough to handle big jobs, or you're tired of the kitchen sink clogging up every time you do the dishes. Each year, garbage disposals become more efficient and much quieter.

Garbage disposals come in two basic types— batch feed or continuous feed. Batch feed models are popular because they reduce the risk of injury or debris ejecting as it will not operate unless the cover is on. Continuous feed models can be less expensive and tend to be more common. They work continuously as you add food until you flip off the switch.

If you would like more information about garbage disposals and professional installation, call Miami Plumber at 305-985-5138 today.
