Q: What is the air admittance valve on a washer drain?

• <div><p>The air admittance valve, or AAV, is a spring-loaded mini-vent that sits right next to your washer. It acts in place of a standard vent stack connection, opening to let air into the drain whenever pressure builds up. It otherwise stays closed to prevent sewer gas from escaping into your home. This gives the washer&rsquo;s plumbing system the air it needs when water enters or drains.</p></div>

Q: Can antifreeze be poured down the drain?

• <div><p>You should never pour antifreeze down the drain or outside on the ground. Because it's highly toxic, antifreeze can still impact people and animals long after it drains. Antifreeze can contaminate water and sewage systems, and any that gets into storm drains and water supplies can attract animals and harm those that ingest it.</p></div>

Q: How long is a plumber liable for their work?

• <div><p>Plumbers can be held liable for their work for anywhere from a year to six years, depending on where you live, but in most states, premises liability lasts for three to four years. You can contact your state&rsquo;s licensing board to find out how long your plumber is liable. Your local building department or a consumer protection agency in your area can also confirm the timeline for you.</p></div>

Q: Can I use chemical drain cleaners to clear clogs in my pipes?

• <div><p>Chemical drain cleaners can work to clear clogs in pipes, but their use should be approached with caution. These harsh chemicals can damage pipes over time, and they can also harm the environment. Use them sparingly and consider alternative methods such as using a plunger or a drain snake. If you have concerns about a persistent clog, it's best to consult a professional who can safely and effectively address the issue without causing further damage to your plumbing system.</p></div>

Q: What is the safest pipe for drinking water?

• <div><p>Copper pipes are the safest type of pipe for carrying drinking water because they won't leach chemicals into your drinking water. However, for the best water quality, you should use copper pipes with lead-free joint material. The next best options for carrying drinking water are CPVC and PEX pipes.</p><p>If you use copper pipes for drinking water, you should check your water&rsquo;s pH level. If it has a pH value lower than seven, you'll need to balance your water acidity with a purifier to avoid corrosion that could affect your drinking water quality. </p></div>

BEWARE! I started dealing with this company in April 2021. It has been 3 months of excuses and extremely poor workmanship. $5000 dollars later I end up with a patio cover that leaks like a SIEVE. After 5 trips to install and do repairs by the owner Mr. William Copeland we informed him on...

Leaf Gutters were installed "correctly" per the company's inspector. They don't work!!!!! The leaves and debris accumulate on top of them. (The pictures below show the gutters after they have been "cleaned off" by Leaf Filter. ) Rainwater then flows over the gutters instead of into them and onto...

It was almost perfect. There was a slight problem with the tub spout leaking, which was not the fault of Kitchen and Bath. They came back out when the problem was discovered and was able to order a new spout and install that without any more issues.

It turns out the Owner / Lead technician took a contractor job in Iraq and left a family member in charge. Sadly, he will be diappointed when he returns. I asked for a flush mount box, so they charged me extra to cut a hole in my drywall and put a surface mount box in the hole with two dry...
