How to Reduce Running Costs of Your Plumbing Equipment

Reducing running costs of your plumbing equipment is of great importance if you wish to save money on expensive repair and replacement bills. This applies to both rental and private properties. Stay ahead of the game and follow our good tips and advice.

 

Maintenance Is the Key

The biggest tip we can give you is something super simple. It’s regular maintenance. We understand that you are busy and it’s easy to let things slip. However, doing a few check-ups on your plumbing equipment on a regular basis will make all the difference. Schedule a check up on a weekend or at the end of the week every 6 to 12 months or when equipment is starting to play up. Even better, get a reputable plumber to do it for you.

Do Your Part in Plumbing Maintenance

Even if you have no plumbing expertise, you can do your part in plumbing maintenance through actions such as:

  • Regularly venting a hot water cylinder relief valve (this can prevent the unit from bursting which results in flooding & and other problems).
  • Reducing unexpected breakdowns and service interruptions by finding where your potential hazards lie and assessing possible risks.
  • Discovering and stopping leaks, clogged pipes/drains.
  • Keeping sewer lines flowing as they should.
  • Reducing water consumption by identifying leaking faucets and toilets.
  • Avoiding unexpected roof repair or replacement costs due to unresolved issues.
  • Liaising closely with your plumbing company so a great customer relationship is built and familiarity with your property is developed.
  • Assisting facility managers in achieving budget stability (running costs are always considered).

 

Professional Plumbing Preventive Maintenance

Request a plumbing preventive maintenance health check from your plumber. This will check that your plumbing equipment is working to its full potential. Any costs incurred as a result of this maintenance will be considerably lower than any costs associated with emergency repairs. These can easily add up to hundreds and even thousands of dollars. This type of maintenance is also done on a regular schedule, based on your availability. This makes it much more convenient than having to wait for a plumber when an unexpected failure occurs.
