Tips for Maintaining Plumbing & Electrical Systems

1. Conduct Regular Inspections - To make sure your plumbing system is working as it should, schedule a bi-annual inspection to catch any small issues, such as corrosion or pipe damage, before they become bigger problems. Abacus can inspect your plumbing system for any physical damage or mechanical issues.

2. Check for Corrosion - Corrosion can occur over time within pipes due to exposure to rusting elements, which can cause clogs, blockages, and leaks. Abacus can perform a thorough check to identify any areas of corrosion and devise a solution.

3. Clean Regularly - Cleaning out plumbing fixtures and piping on a regular basis is essential to keeping it in good working order. Make sure to use a gentle cleaner and a soft cloth or brush when cleaning to avoid damaging the plumbing system's components.

4. Maintain Electrical Systems - Keep your electrical systems up to date and secure by regularly checking for any issues, such as loose wires or malfunctioning switches, and making any necessary repairs. Abacus can also assist with installation of new fixtures or devices.

5. Check for Leaks - If your plumbing is experiencing a leak, identify and address the source of the leak as soon as possible to avoid further damage to your plumbing system and home. Abacus offers leak detection services.

6. Unclog Drains - To reduce the chances of a slow or clogged drain, make sure to clean out all fixtures regularly, and use a strain or filter. If a drain does become clogged, Abacus can unclog it with our advanced hydro jetting services.

7. call a Professional - plumbing and electrical work can be challenging - and even dangerous - if you do not have the right experience or tools. If you are unsure or uncomfortable with performing plumbing or electrical maintenance yourselves, not to worry. Abacus is here to help.

Taking the above steps can help protect your plumbing and electrical systems and ensure they're running smoothly. If any issues do arise, Abacus is on hand to provide professional residential and commercial plumbing and electrical services at competitive prices.
