Back-to-School Plumbing Tips

Back-to-school season is here!  Now that the kids will be spending more time in the bathroom getting ready in the morning - it's important that your plumbing system is in good condition.  Here are a few tips to help make the morning rush a little bit easier.

Plumbing Tips:

• Fix Faucet Leaks - Even a small leak can put a lot of wear and tear on your bathroom faucet.  If you notice a leak now, you shouldn't delay getting it fixed. 
• Create a Shower Schedule - You should try saving most showers for at night to save time in the morning.  If you love morning showers, create a schedule!  This will help free up time in the bathroom for other people and help avoid hot water limits.  Of course, if you are looking for unlimited hot water, consider upgrading to a tankless water heater this fall.
• Add Bath Mats - Avoid slip and falls when rushing around during your bathroom routines by adding bath mats to your floors and shower.  This will help prevent injuries when getting ready.
• Add Strainers to Drains - Make sure that your bathroom sink and shower drains have strainers to catch hair and other debris.  While we do want our hair to look good for the first day of school, we don't want to clog our drains in the process.
