AAA Home Services Can Help Soften Your Water

If you’re like most St. Louis homeowners, you’re probably not giving much thought to the water that comes out of your taps. But if you have hard water, then you should really be paying attention! Hard water is water that has a high mineral content, which can cause all sorts of problems for your home. From stained clothes and dishes to clogged pipes and appliances, hard water can wreak havoc on your everyday life.

Installing a Water Softener Can Help

One solution to this problem is to install a water softener. Water softeners work by removing the minerals from the water, which makes it “softer.” This not only makes your water more pleasant to drink and shower in, but it also has a host of other benefits as well. For example, water softeners can help to:

  • water softenersReduce the amount of soap and detergent you need to use for dishes and laundry
  • Prevent buildup on your faucets, showerheads, and plumbing fixtures
  • Make your skin feel softer and smoother
  • Reduce the occurrence of dry skin, eczema, and other skin conditions

If you’re interested in learning more about water softeners and how they can benefit you, then be sure to contact AAA Plumbing & Water Heater Service today. We offer comprehensive water softener installation services and can help you choose the right system for your home.

Preparing for Winter: Prevent Plumbing Problems

Many St Louis homes have plumbing water lines running through their basements. During the cold fall and winter months, when our temperatures drop below freezing point, it puts your plumbing lines at risk for possible freeze and breakage. A busted pipe can result in flooding, causing major water damage, property destruction, and costly repair. 

As we work our way through the fall season, homeowners should do everything they can to avoid freeze-related plumbing issues. We’ve got a few tips to help you get your home ready.

Tips to Prepare Your Plumbing for Winter

  • Turn the Heat On: The first easy step to prevent pipes from freezing is to keep your heat set above 50 degrees. Setting your thermostat at 50 or above should keep your pipes and the water inside warm enough to prevent it from freezing. Check out our blog post on Home Heating, and schedule a furnace check and cleaning with AAA Home Services today. 
  • Insulate Your Pipes: Make sure your pipes are well insulated, and add extra insulation in basements if needed. Exposed pipes can be fitted with rubber or fiberglass sleeves to keep the piping warm. For piping that is located inside walls, you can add extra insulation to the walls themselves. This step is the most important for exterior walls that are closest to the cold outdoor air. 
  • Seal Gaps Where Cold Air Passes: Seal up any areas around where plumbing pipes run through walls, cabinets, or floors – especially gaps that let in cold air. Fill the gaps with caulk or spray foam insulation. If both the interior and exterior sides of the gap are accessible, seal both sides. This will prevent the cabinets where your plumbing pipes run, which are already typically cold, from getting even colder.
  • Locate Your Shut-Off Valve: As a back-up, you and your family members should also know how to locate and operate the water shut-off valve in the event that a plumbing pipe does burst.
