Plumbing Problems Unique to the Summer Season.

Hot, muggy weather is around the corner in Kansas City.  Most of us welcome the opportunity to get out and travel and lay in the sun.  Summer is great!  Summertime may not be so great for the plumbing around your home or business.  There are unique situations that occur in this upcoming time of year that we don’t see in the frigid months.

Here are some common summer plumbing problems to be aware of -
1.  Your disposal could easily clog.  Cookouts cause more food to be thrown down the drain.
2.  Sewer lines back up.  Heavy rains equals heavy flooding and clogged sewers.
3.  Clogged toilets.  Children are running in and out of the house and using the facilities.
4.  Children everywhere!  More children around the house means heavier use of your washing machine.
5.  Obviously, the annual rising of the sprinklers.  Make sure your sprinkler system is 100%

Preventative maintenance before the hot summer weather hits is obviously important.  For dozens of years the Kansas City area has trusted Poor Johns Plumbing for preventative and emergency plumbing.  Poor Johns Plumbing is your Kansas City plumbing professional.  Visit www.poorjohns.com for a list of the phone numbers closest to you and have a safe and happy summer.
