The Plumbing Experts at Perfection Plumbing Describe Which Plumbing Rumours Are to Be Believed!


Not all rumours and myths contain a fragment of truth. Sadly, a lot of people put too much faith in hearsay, even though much of it is unsubstantiated. As a result, homeowners everywhere have come to fear events that won’t even materialize. Luckily, you can find out which myths contain some truth and which one’s lack factual basis.


#1: A Plunger is the Answer to ALL Clogged Plumbing


All earnest homeowners keep a plunger at home. These are fine to deal with minor blockage in drains and pipes. However, using a plunger is a skill that you need to learn. Too often, people inadvertently complicate the clog because they don’t properly apply the plunger, which creates an overflow. Therefore, it’s wiser to call a trusted Trusted Saskatoon plumber to deal with this issue.




#2: It's OK to Flush Anything Down the Toilet


Your toilet is not a garbage disposal. Irregularly shaped objects from the trash can get caught and cause a major blockage in the plumbing system. Similarly, the rumour that insists it’s perfectly okay to flush cat litter down the toilet is simply bilge. Animal feces may contain bacteria and parasites proving harmful to humans and the marine life via the sewage system.


#3: Clean the Bowl with Bleach Tablets


There is some truth to this myth. Putting bleach tablets in the toilet bowl does cleanse and add sparkle to your toilet. However, do not let the tablet linger in the bowl for more than 10 minutes. Prolonged exposure to bleach can destroy the plumbing system of a toilet within six months. Flush the tablet promptly and thoroughly, and remember to use only those tablets specifically designed for toilets.


#4: A Little Drip is of No Concern



According to a recent analysis performed by the Saskatchewan Watershed Authorities, Canadian households lose 1,200 litres of water every year due to a leaky faucet. That amount of water can fill as much as seven bathtubs. Aside from their drain on water supplies and the ecosystem, leaky faucets also affect your water bill. Don’t hesitate to call a trusted plumber to fix this problem right away.

Many other myths flourish undisputed, such as freshening the toilet bowl with lemon peels. Can it work? Yes, your bathroom will smell lovely. Soon after, however, you will likely be dealing with a clogged toilet. Before doing anything, rash based on myths, it’s wise to ask a plumbing service for a genuine and verifiable answer.

Pro Advice on How to Maintain a Clean, Functional Toilet From Plumbing Experts at Perfection Plumbing


A toilet might not constantly be on a homeowner’s mind, but once it becomes inoperable, it preoccupies everyone in the household and protests will be heard. Since going to the toilet is such a big part of our everyday lives, it’s only natural to miss it when trouble arises. To avoid this uncomfortable situation, you need to stay on top of things in terms of toilet maintenance.

Clean Your Toilet Daily


Any system in the world tends to experience fewer problems when kept clean. As everyone knows, toilets are the place to flush away the body’s excrement. Urine and other bodily waste are naturally filled with bacteria and, in some cases, diseases. Did you know that bacteria can be propelled as high as 1.5 metres into the air when flushed? It will then stick to the surrounding surface. The simplest way to deal with this problem is to close the toilet lid before you flush.

Dispersed bacteria may be colonizing everywhere in the bathroom, including all the toilet components: the handle, the base, and toilet seat. Bathrooms are naturally humid places, a perfect environment for bacterial growth. Using disinfectants such as bleach or vinegar to thoroughly clean all surfaces. Be careful, experts say common toilet cleaning products can cause damage that leads to leakage.



Only Flush What is Meant to be Flushed

Is it wise to flush toilet paper? In Canada, the answer is grey. You can flush toilet paper down the drain, but only in limited amounts between flushes. Otherwise, be prepared to suffer the consequences! It’s possible to suffer damages or blockages within your plumbing system because of excess toilet paper, which can eventually lead to flooding of your floor.

The Canadian government is also advocating that citizens not flush down baby wipes, even when the manufacturer insists they are flushable. In 2013, these wipes clogged the sewer system across the country to cause damages up to $250 million.

Inspect the Inner Toilet System Regularly

Keeping the outer surface of the toilet clean is easy. However, it’s the system inside that presents difficulties you cannot see. Hire a plumber to perform routine maintenance so that you can catch problems early, before they cause even bigger problems.

During maintenance, a plumber will typically check your plumbing’s condition and identify potential leaks. You will also receive personalized tips on how to perform daily cleaning and maintenance of all your toilet components. Always keep your toilet well maintained.

Experts at Razor Heating & Air Conditioning Discuss How the Cold Affects Vehicles

Saskatchewan winters are really hard on vehicles. If you are one of the lucky ones to already have a Unit Heater for your garage then you know what I am referencing to. If not, here are some of the benefits that can be experienced, from the experts at Razor Heating & Air Conditioning themselves. 

Q: How does the cold affect vehicles? Does it have many negative effects?


The rubber compound in all-season tires hardens when temps drop below? 7C, causing them to lose grip, whereas winter tires stay soft and stick to the road in sub-zero temperatures.

Motor oil thickens when cold, making it harder for the engine to turn over on the first start of the day. This is further exacerbated by the fact that battery output drops by about half at -18C. It also declines gradually with age, so an older battery that’s fine in warm weather might fail in the cold.

Your engine runs least efficiently during the first 20 minutes or so after cold start-up, before it has warmed to operating temperature.

 

Windshields will be more vulnerable to damage. Never use hot water to clear a frosted windshield, as it could crack. Alcohol sprays, such as Frost Buster, Prestone Heat or ordinary rubbing alcohol are safer alternatives. These can also be added to washer fluid to increase freeze-up protection.




Some of your items will be more susceptible to harm depending on the materials they are made of. Wood and metal will expand and contract during freezing and thawing, which can cause the material to warp or weaken and sometimes split or crack. Leather and other materials may yellow or degrade more easily after being exposed to freezing temperatures.


There are many reasons to support the installation of unit heaters whether it be recreational, storage, or for the purpose of a shop function.
