Plumbing repair services in the home can either be in water supply or in drainage and either of these can be the source of agony to home owners:
Water Supply – This includes the incoming cold water mains, which splits to the water heater and the rest to all the cold water taps. For the hot water, it starts at the water heater and branches to hot water taps. The supply pipes are made of steel, copper or plastic and have a diameter between half an inch and one inch. The water flows under pressure though it varies in the various pipes. High pressure can damage the pipes, appliances and fixtures. Weak pressure also results in weak flow at the tap level and is very inconvenient. One can use pressure boosters to increase the pressure and regulators to reduce it.
Drainage System – This is used for the drain, waste and vent. The pipes are made of iron, steel or plastic and have a diameter range of one and a half inch to four inches. Some are bigger than this. Waste water flows by gravity. The system is built to flow downwards to the sewer or septic system. In rare cases where it has to flow upwards, it has to be pumped.
