Having to deal with a clogged toilet every time can be a real nightmare. Whenever your toilet clogs, it’s crucial to get to the root cause of the problem. Here are some possible reasons why your toilet keeps clogging.

• You have an older toilet that just can’t handle a lot of flushes
• You have fill valve issues that prevent the tank from filling with enough water
• Possible pipe blockages beyond the toilet
• A damaged or blockade plumbing vent
• Sewage line issues

A clogged drain is one of the most common plumbing problems you will encounter as a homeowner. Your drain can become clogged for a wide range of reasons, and it can be a pain to fix. But how do you know that your drain is clogged? Some of the most common warning signs of a clogged drain include

• A strange odor coming from your drains
• Your drains gurgle
• Slow draining
• Unexplained puddles in your yard
• A toilet that doesn’t flush

If you have any of the above symptoms, call American Eagle Plumbing, Inc. to prevent potential damage to your ceilings, walls, floors, or personal belongings.

The most common reason for a noisy water heater is a sediment buildup in the bottom of the hot water tank. The noise results when the hot water bubbles up through the sediment in the tank’s bottom. You can prevent sediment buildup by installing a water softener to eliminate the sediment that builds up in your tank or flushing the water heater out periodically.

If ignored, the sediment buildup can lead to bigger, more costly problems. In the worst-case scenario, the bottom of the tank can rust out and start leaking. Once the tank begins to leak, your only option is to replace the water heater.

If you notice a “rotten egg” smell in your home, you might have a gas line leak. Here are a few safety guidelines to follow:

• Shut gas valves off
• Don’t use your phone until you’re safely away from the suspected source of the leak
• Don’t use any open flames or smoke
• Don’t turn any electric appliances on or off
• Don’t attempt to locate the leak on your own
• Get a safe distance away from the house, then call 911 and your local utility company
• If you damaged your natural gas line when digging outside, for example, call the utility company right away. Don’t try to fix the line yourself

Preventing a gas leak is as easy as ensuring proper gas line installation by licensed professionals and scheduling annual gas line inspections

Low water pressure can result from several factors. Maybe you have old pipes that are clogging your plumbing system. The street water that’s being provided to you might be low.

Contrary to popular belief, garbage disposals don’t work like a blender. While they have some similarities to blenders, a garbage disposal doesn’t even have blades. In fact, there’s no chewing, cutting, or chopping involved.

Once you turn on your disposal, a small plate with teeth or shredding impellers starts to rotate at high speed. The plate is located at the bottom of the “grinding chamber” and helps to create the centrifugal force necessary to propel the scraps of food against the chamber’s internal walls. The walls grind the food down into tiny particles that can flow down the drain.

Garbage disposals will only break up soft items. It’s okay to put soft foods such as vegetable scraps, cooked meat, fruit scraps, and corn cobs in the disposal. Eggshells, coffee grounds, bones, or any other tough products will wear the disposal’s impellers or teeth and jam it.

Make a habit of running water to the garbage disposal every time you use it. That helps to break down and flush the foods the foods down the drain. If you have any issues with your garbage disposal, call the plumbing experts at American Eagle Plumbing. Our team is always happy to help.

Water softening is a critical process because it reduces the hardness of the water in households and commercial establishments. When you have hard water, soap will have a hard time dissolving in it, and it can clog pipes. Water softening can prevent these adverse effects.

Hard water causes a higher risk of limescale buildup in household water systems. The limescale deposits block pipes and reduce the efficiency of hot water tanks and boilers. This can increase the cost of water heating by up to twenty percent. Water softening means extending the lifespan of household machines and pipelines.

Whole house water filtration systems treat water to make it cleaner and easier to drink for the entire home.

• Extended life of household pipes and water-using appliances
• Healthier skin and hair
• Softer, longer-lasting, and brighter clothing
• Healthier baths and showers
• Softened water with spotless glasses and scale-free showers
