Quick Tip!
Have you checked your
TAPS lately?
This pretty-colored “beauty” speaks for itself! It had been leaking so long onto the water heater (without being noticed or repaired) that the metal cabinet had rusted through. Consequently, the otherwise “good” water heater had to be replaced, far ahead of its normal service life end.
Check all of your supply shut-offs and supply/drain piping (look inside all sink cabinets). Check the hot/cold supplies to the clothes washer and connections to the water heater for leaks/drips. Also, in case you still haven’t shut-off outside hose-bibs (assuming they’re not frost-free) ensure you do – before it is too late!

CASE STUDY:
YOUR HEATING SYSTEM:
Is it installed correctly & operating properly?
Recently, we were hired to inspect a 30-plus year-old town house for a client (original owner selling). The forced-air furnace was also original. When it was time to be checked over, it was fired-up and the output to floor registers in all rooms was determined to be fairly even. However, the problem was the ‘return’ side which was checked and found to not be working at all…
