    Common Hose Bibb Problems

    • Leaks: Dripping or leaking faucets are often caused by worn-out washers, O-rings, or valve stems.  
    • Mineral Buildup: Hard water can leave mineral deposits that clog the faucet and reduce water flow.
    • Corrosion: Exposure to the elements can cause the faucet to corrode, especially in coastal areas.
    • Freezing: As mentioned earlier, freezing is a major concern in colder climates.
    • Lack of Shutoff: To prevent frozen pipes and potential water damage, ensure your plumbing includes a shutoff valve.  If your installation missed this crucial component, adding one is a simple step for long-term protection.

      How do I Prevent Kitchen Plumbing Problems

       

      Taking proactive measures can help prevent kitchen plumbing issues and keep your kitchen running efficiently. Avoid pouring grease down the drain; instead, dispose of it in a container to prevent clogs. Be mindful of what you put in the garbage disposal, avoiding fibrous foods, bones, and other hard items that can damage it. Use drain strainers to catch food scraps and debris before they enter the drain. Run cold water when using the garbage disposal to help flush away food waste and prevent grease buildup. And finally, consider scheduling regular maintenance and inspections to identify potential issues before they become major problems. Don’t let kitchen plumbing problems disrupt your culinary adventures. Contact Arch Plumbing today for reliable and efficient service in St. Charles County.
