Plumbing Tips for Winter.

Guard against poor heating in bitterly cold weather.  This is the core of the worst thing that can happen to any home in Kansas City this winter.  Regular maintenance of your heating system even after the first cold snap is recommended.  Your heating system runs at full capacity at sub-zero temperatures so that is a good time to have it tested.  A professional with an OHM meter can tell if the element needs to be replaced.

Then there is your hot water system.  It seems that it fails just when you need it the most.  Here is one tip that you may follow.  Try to allow at least 10-15 minutes between any two showers in your home.  This will keep the temperature consistent.

This time of year with harsh temperatures creating serious plumbing problems you need the help of a professional.  In Kansas City that pro is Poor Johns Plumbing.  For decades we have been serving the Kansas City area 24/7 365 days a year.  Visit our website at www.poorjohns.com to find the right phone number to call for help in your area of the KC metro.
