How do I know what size pipe I have?

• <div><p>In the best-case scenario, the pipe size is written on the side of the pipe. You’ll often find this with different types of plastic piping like PVC, PEX, or CPVC. For other <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/copper-pipes-type.htm">types of pipes</a>, you’ll have to measure. You can measure the outside circumference with a soft tape measure, then divide your measurement by pi. From there, you’ll have to use a conversion chart to get the nominal pipe size (the size you’d buy in the store).</p></div>

Q: What type of pipe is used for main water lines?

• <div><p>The best types of piping for underground main water lines are PVC and PEX pipes because of their ability to be buried and withstand high levels of water pressure. PVC and PEX pipes are resistant to rusting and corrosion, which makes them ideal for transporting water. Copper is another efficient type of pipe for underground water lines because of their resistance to rusting and leakage. Again, copper pipes are on the higher end of the price range. </p></div>

Q: How long does it take a plumber to install a faucet?

• <div><p>It takes a plumber one to two hours to install a faucet, but it depends on the complexity of the job. It could take longer if the installation requires them to open up the walls or flooring to install new plumbing, like putting in a wall-mounted or freestanding model, even for experienced plumbers. </p></div>

Q: How do you know if a radiator valve is open or closed?

• <div><p>If you go to turn it counterclockwise and it won&rsquo;t turn anymore, it&rsquo;s open. Like most other valves, you should be able to turn a radiator valve counterclockwise (to the left) to open it and clockwise (right) to close it. To close a radiator valve, turn it clockwise until you meet some resistance and can&rsquo;t turn anymore, but do so carefully to avoid breaking the valve. </p></div>

Q: How do you remove a drain without crosshairs?

• <div><p>If your drain doesn&rsquo;t have metal crosshairs or crossbars, you should use a tub drain extractor. These tools create a grip on the drain so you can turn it using a 1/2-inch ratchet drive, drain key, or wrench. Your drain may not have crosshairs if it's old and broken.</p></div>
