plumbing tips
Turn off those taps
Dripping taps can waste up to 200 litres of water a day. Get those dripping taps fixed!
Toilets
New toilets use 3 to 6 litres per flush. However, old single flush toilets use 11 litres per flush! To save water, consider upgrading your existing toilet. Remember, it's one of the most used appliances in the house and it's one of the only ones used by every member of the household.
Hot Water
If you are worried about hot water scolding the young or old, we can install a system that will limit the temperature of the hot water, making your house a safer place.
Don't neglect your drains
If your toilet starts gurgling then it’s starting to block up, something in the drain is restricting the air flow causing it to suck or expel air from toilets, sinks and basins.
Listen to your toilet
You can obtain a copy of your sewerage plan for your property by contacting your water authority.
Know the locations
Knowing the location of your water and gas meter is always a good idea, as well as knowing how to turn them off if you need too.
Plumbing Gurantee
All plumbing work over $750 requires by law is to be issued with a certificate of compliance. Ensure that whichever plumber you use supplies you with a certificate of compliance, which guarantees their work for 6 years.
Keep an eye out on gas
All gas appliances need a regular service minimum every two years. To ensure they are working efficiently and safely, get your heater and other gas connections checked before winter.
