1. Regular Maintenance is Key
One of the most important things you can do for your plumbing and heating systems is to schedule regular maintenance. This includes:
- Annual heating system inspections
- Periodic plumbing check-ups
- Cleaning or replacing air filters
- Flushing your water heater

- Tankless water heaters
- Low-flow toilets and showerheads
4. Know Your Home’s Plumbing
Familiarize yourself with your home’s plumbing system, including the location of:
- Main water shut-off valve
- Individual fixture shut-off valves
- Sewer clean-out access points
5. Address Issues Promptly
Don’t ignore small problems, as they can quickly escalate into larger, more expensive issues. If you notice any of the following, contact a professional immediately:
- Persistent leaks
- Unusual noises from your heating system
- Inconsistent water temperature
- Slow-draining sinks or toilets
