Summer = Heavier Usage of Plumbing

It’s going to be an active summer.  This includes heavier usage of your plumbing.  Preparing for this could be as simple as fixture replacements.  Wear and tear eventually renders a faucet weak and eventually inoperable.  A professional will install your new fixtures in no time.  The repair of a leaky faucet NOW can avoid a large expense later on.

Emergency plumbing situations are the most unwanted, but most important summer service. If it's the middle of the night and a pipe bursts, a basement floods or a water heater goes out, you and your family shouldn't have to wait until 8 a.m. for help.  No leak should be ignored and no flood should overwhelm you.

If you live in the Naperville-Plainfield-Aurora, Geneva-Batavia-St.Charles or Wheaton-Winfield-Warrenville-Glen Ellyn area there is comforting news.  You can contact family owned AquaTech Plumbing at 630-416-3555, 630-377-9555, or 630-462-3555 for service 24/7.  Aquatech is your preventative and emergency plumber serving Western Suburban Chicago.

Repairing or Installing Gas Piping in Chicagoland.

Piping and installation may encompass a small area of your home or your entire business.  Even a small gas leak can lead to disaster without a professional on the scene.  Gas pipe leaks and installations are not the work of a do-it-yourselfer.  For your own safety, a professional should always be involved in any gas piping matter.

There is a wide-range of gas piping installation and repairs that may occur here.  Things such as copper gas piping, gas line installation, repair or replacement, residential as well as businesses of any size, natural gas piping, and steel gas piping.  This is also the time of year that you will be hooking up a new gas grill for that “grill sergeant” in your household.

The best choice for all of this is your Chicagoland gas piping expert.  If you live in the Naperville-Plainfield-Aurora, Geneva-Batavia-St.Charles or Wheaton-Winfield-Warrenville-Glen Ellyn area, contact AquaTech Plumbing at 630-416-3555, 630-377-9555, or 630-462-3555. AquaTech plumbing is your gas piping commercial and residential professional.  We are also standing by for any preventative measure or a plumbing emergency 24/7.

Beware Spring and Summer Flooding.

The heavy rains are just a part of life in Chicagoland.  They are fine if you’re a fish, but not so good if you are a basement or a sump pump.  Your finished basement that you put so much money into and love to spend time in can be destroyed within hours.  Worst of all the memories that may be stored in that basement are irretrievable due to water damage.

What is the status of your sump pump system?  Does it have a current battery back-up?  Do you have a back-up sump pump in case the main one fails?  Is the battery system equipped with an alarm that goes off when it is running low?  Did you know that in this era there are systems that even call your cell phone when the battery is running low!?

The best option for your home is two sump pumps and a battery back-up.  If you live in the Naperville-Plainfield-Aurora, Geneva-Batavia-St.Charles or Wheaton-Winfield-Warrenville-Glen Ellyn area, contact AquaTech Plumbing at 630-416-3555, 630-377-9555, or 630-462-3555. AquaTech plumbing is your sump pump professional expert.  We will be there for any preventative measure or a plumbing emergency 24/7.

Replacing Your Old Water Heater with a Tankless One.

If you are debating the value of a tankless water heater here are some things that you need to know –

What is the advantage of going tankless? 

1.  It provides hot water ONLY when you need it.  The water is heated on the spot when you turn on the faucet.

2.  You reduce energy loss and increase efficiency by over HALF!  An average household will save about $200 per year.

What are the downsides of a tankless water heater?

1.  It cannot produce a large amount of hot water all at once.  A tankless water heater produces less than half of the gallons per minute that a traditional water heater pumps out.

2.  A new system is typically double the price of a traditional hot water heater.

Talk to a Chicagoland water heater expert before you make a decision.  If you live in the Naperville-Plainfield-Aurora, Geneva-Batavia-St.Charles or Wheaton-Winfield-Warrenville-Glen Ellyn area, contact AquaTech Plumbing at 630-416-3555, 630-377-9555, or 630-462-3555.  AquaTech plumbing is your water heater professional.  We will be there for you for maintenance, installation, or a plumbing emergency 24/7.

Check your Chicagoland Garbage Disposal.

How does your garbage disposal sound these days?  Has it become loud enough for you to think there is a garbage truck just outside your door?  Over time we start to ignore the increasing grinding and louder noises that it makes each time that you use it.  Reluctantly it may be time for a new one, or at least an inspection.

Your garbage disposal should be a relatively quiet “gobbler of goo” that doesn’t startle everyone in the household when it is used.  These days there are new, more energy efficient disposals.  They will not only do the job, but also cost less because they are energy efficient.  You will notice the difference instantly when one of these new models is installed.  

If you live in the Naperville-Plainfield-Aurora, Geneva-Batavia-St.Charles or Wheaton-Winfield-Warrenville-Glen Ellyn area, contact AquaTech Plumbing at 630-416-3555, 630-377-9555, or 630-462-3555. AquaTech is your energy efficient garbage disposal headquarters.  We will be there for you if it is plumbing maintenance or a plumbing emergency 24/7.
