Q: How do you get rid of air in a toilet line?

• <div><p>The first step to clearing the air in a line is to locate the cause. This is usually a blockage in either the drain or the venting system. Once you clear the issue, flush the system by actually flushing the toilets repeatedly. This should allow the trapped air to escape, thus clearing the lines. Don&rsquo;t be surprised if there is increased bubbling as the air makes its way through the system. </p></div>

Q: Can I use metal detectors to find my sewer line?

• <div><p>No, you typically cannot use metal detectors to find your sewer line. Most sewer lines are made of non-metallic materials such as PVC, clay, or cast iron, which are not detectable by standard metal detectors. Metal detectors are designed to locate metallic objects, so they won't be effective for identifying the path of a non-metallic sewer line. To locate your sewer line accurately, it's best to use other methods.</p></div>

Q: Can you dissolve hair in a drain?

• <div><p>It might be possible to dissolve hair caught in a drain, but it&rsquo;s usually not a good way to go about clearing the clog. Some sources mention that baking soda and vinegar can do the trick, but this won&rsquo;t actually dissolve the hair. The hydrochloric acid in drain cleaners can dissolve the hair over time, but it will much more quickly destroy your plumbing pipes and leave you with bigger issues. The best way to remove hair is to do it manually with a drain snake or to have a plumber use an auger to pull clogs out.</p></div>

Q: Can the water pipe from a washing machine freeze?

• <div><p>The water pipe from your washing machine is one of the many components that can freeze during winter conditions, causing pipes to burst. Frozen water pipes in your washing machine can result in damage to your machine, plus other unfortunate results like flooding and water damage. </p></div>

These people are scammers. Quoted $55k to replace the pipes in the house and insurance declined. Then quoted $18k to locate leak and repair by tearing up floors and walls. Insurance approved $12k and we were on the hook for $6k. They came out to detect the areas for the leak. The day they came...

They were prompt. Informative. Did what they came to do and in a businesslike manner. The installed product looks good and while it hasn't been used a whole lot, yet, due to weather conditions being pretty nice right now, seems to work very nicely.

"We were having a lot of air in our well system. Causing the water to spit and sputter when we turned on the tap inside. They came out quickly and fixed the problem. It’s been a couple weeks now and it’s been so nice not having to go manually purge the air from our tank! Kind and courteous and highly recommend them. We are having them come back to install a water treatment light into our system next."
