Las Vegas Plumbing Emergencies

Las Vegas Plumbing Emergencies

Unexpected Las Vegas plumbing emergencies can disrupt your daily routine. They cause stress which is why you need a crash course in Emergency Plumbing 101. Superior Plumbing and Drain understands the importance of being prepared to handle these sudden crises. Here’s a comprehensive guide to navigating emergency plumbing situations:

1. Shut Off the Water: 

In the event of a burst pipe, overflowing toilet, or any significant water leak, locate the main water shut-off valve and turn it off immediately. Knowing the location of this valve beforehand is crucial to prevent further water damage.

2. Assess the Situation: 

Evaluate the severity of the issue. For minor leaks or clogs, you may be able to contain the problem until professional help arrives. However, for major issues like a burst pipe, it’s essential to act swiftly.

3. Contact a Professional: 

Once the immediate threat is contained by shutting off the water, contact a licensed emergency plumber. Explain the situation clearly to ensure they understand the urgency and nature of the problem.

4. Temporarily Contain Leaks: 

Use temporary measures such as towels, buckets, or plumbing tape to contain minor leaks until the plumber arrives. However, avoid making permanent repairs if you’re not confident, as this might complicate professional repairs.

5. Address Clogged Drains: 

If faced with a clogged drain, refrain from using chemical drain cleaners. Instead, attempt to clear minor clogs using a plunger or a drain snake. For stubborn clogs or if unsure, wait for professional assistance.

6. Turn Off Appliances: 

If water is leaking near electrical appliances or outlets, turn off electricity to that area to prevent any risk of electrical shock. Safety should always be a priority in plumbing emergencies.

7. Keep a Plumbing Emergency Kit: 

Prepare a basic emergency kit containing a plunger, plumbing tape, a wrench, and the contact information of emergency plumbing services. This can be invaluable during unexpected situations.

8. Preventative Measures: 

Regularly maintain your plumbing system to prevent emergencies. Schedule annual inspections and address minor issues promptly to avoid larger problems in the future.

Tank or Tankless Water Heater

tankless water heater

Choosing between a tank or tankless water heater is a common question we get from customers. While they both have benefits, the tank (generally about 40 gallons in a residential home) is the main difference. Without having to store the water, a tankless water heater operates with hot water on demand. Using a heat exchanger, the water runs through and is immediately heated before coming out of the faucet.

The Benefits of Tank Water Heaters

In a tank water heater, the entire volume of water is stored in the tank and consistently heated. As water is used, the water is replaced and heated. Two of the main benefits are the up-front costs and higher tolerance for usage across multiple faucets or showers. Tank water heaters are also simpler to operate and repair, as noted from customer feedback. Although cost, is the number one reason customer prefer the tank.

The Benefits of Tankless Water Heaters

With tankless water heaters, they are generally more energy efficient due to their on-demand nature. Water is only heated as it passes through the heat exchanger. Along with saving space, the longevity of a tankless heater is another benefit. Our customers site “endless hot water” as another benefit. Even though the hot water supply is not endless, it appears that way when used by fewer outlets at one time. Customers enjoy the ease and convenience of the tankless water heater when they are installed on a wall that is out of the way as well.
