The process of exterior polybutylene piping replacement usually only involves a slight excavation with a trencher. A process called pipe splitting is used, where the old pipe is purposefully cut in half and a new stable pipe is run through it. Deep trench excavation is only needed in areas with a deep buried pipe system.

We’ve heard that silly Super Bowl myth about the overflow in sewage systems by everyone flushing their toilets at the same time during commercial breaks. Don’t buy into the stories, they’re not true. But that doesn’t mean you shouldn’t make sure your toilets are working for halftime or any time.

Do you know what scale is and one of the main ways it collects in your pipes?

For indoor plumbing installations, polybutylene pipe is typically gray or black; when used outdoors it may be black, gray, or blue. However, if your pipes are plastic of any color, it is best to have them inspected for deterioration and other damage.

If water efficiency and usage is a concern, consider having waterless urinals installed in your building. When combined with low flush-rate toilets, they reduce both the amount of water entering the structure and the volume discharged.

You probably already know copper pipe is one of the most popular materials in the history of the plumbing trade. Care to guess when man first began using this material to make running water available indoors? If you guessed over 4,000 years ago in Egypt, you're right.

Not only must the plumbing system in your building bring water in and circulate it through the structure, but it must also discharge it from the building into the proper municipal water disposal system. Our role is to make sure the entire system functions as it is designed to.

A dual-flush toilet has one flush for liquid waste and another for solid waste. The idea is to save on water as much as possible. By reducing the water usage in your home due to toilets by as much as 67 percent, dual-flush toilets will save money and conserve water at the same time.

There are two types of polybutylene pipe replacements: interior and exterior. Interior replacement does not have to be as extensive and destructive as one may initially think. Discreet cuts are made in strategic places to replace the pipes.

In newer homes that installed PVC pipes for the drain system, the noises you hear of water running through the drain system are normal. PVC has poor sound insulation and noise is easily transmitted. It is not necessarily an indication of a problem.

It might be tempting to try to save money from your maintenance budget by having your basic maintenance staff “fix” plumbing problems, but this can only make it worse. The best value for your money will come from having a pro do it right the first time.

Water pressure is higher in the supply pipe between the main water line and the plumbing inside the home, and the chlorine content is higher as well. These two conditions, coupled with the age of the material, are the primary reasons for exterior line failure of polybutylene pipes.

Sinking is a common cause of cracking and vertical movement in drain lines. In cold climates, the pipeline may shift upward as soil freezes, then sink when the ground thaws. Or, it moves up as clay soils expands due to rain, then sinks as the soil dries.

Why opt for copper piping? It’s strong, resilient, durable, versatile, naturally antimicrobial, and extraordinarily long-lasting. As more than one plumber has noted, Type K and Type L pipe are designed to last 300 years, but Type M will only last 250 years.
