Some Myths You Need To Know About Plumbing

By Carolina Dickens 2 years ago Plumbers

Well as with anything with the development of human civilization, it quite seems that myths have evolved! In this article we are going to bust some myths about plumbing service and explain to you why it is indeed a myth. 

Some Myths are Given Below

Dripping of Water is Not a worry 

Well this is a myth due to inertia and laziness that one has developed. Dropping water is a very serious issue with the fact that there are huge chunks of the population that need water for their basic needs! 

Dripping water not only wastes water, it can corrode the tile or flooring and pipe itself where water drips, can potentially promote the growth of microorganisms and other disease causing pathogens which can be lethally dangerous etc. Suppose water is going through in the pipes not on the pipes! 

Hot Liquids Don't Cause Any Problem Because it’s a Liquid! 

Well, very hot liquids can lead to accumulation of clogs, corrosion of pipes, further pressure differences and leakage of pipes, further crack and crushing and what not! So just because it’s a liquid doesn’t qualify to be thrown away into the sink, hot things do cause a lot of trouble if not taken care of! 

Boiling Water Can Clean Clogs 

This again is very similar to the 2nd myth that we busted, boiling water can cause more damage than clogs! It may clear some amount of clogs due to its high temperature but it can potentially harm the pipes causing corrosion, crackings and further crushing and breakage of pipe. It can also affect the sewage system too! 

Flushing Anything

There are some who are actually convinced of the myth. If you can flush out anything down the toilet as long as it clears out then it’s absolutely fine. Well the obvious answer to this is No. In this case you are causing a lot of ecological imbalance to the sewage system. Which is going to be very difficult in sewage professional plumbing service. It also depends on what things you flush down your toilet. Apart from human excreta nothing else should be flushed down through the toilets even your pets excreta. 

Water Pressure May Change 

Well you may point out that this could be a reason due to voltage or electricity power issues. However changes or fluctuations in water pressure indicate. There is some kind of problem within the pipes, maybe clogs or other blockage 

To Stop Water Leaking From Tap Turn it Very Tightly to Prevent Leakage 

This is one of the most common plumbing myths that most of us might be doing. Turning or rotating the faucet of the tap tightly may seem to help at first. But actually many plumbing Homebush experts argue that it causes more damage to the faucet and tap and thereby further increasing the damage. 

Here fixing the tap or faucet is the way to approach not tightening. These all are some of the common myths that have been debunked that you might have believed to be true!
