Q: Why is water coming out of the shower when the tub is on?

• <div><p>The diverter valve in your bathtub is responsible for diverting water between your tub spout and your shower head. If water comes out of both at the same time, you have a faulty diverter valve. You can have a plumber replace this for you, or you can replace it yourself if you have some experience working with plumbing fixtures.</p></div>

Q: How often should bathroom pipes be replaced?

• <div><p>The lifespan of bathroom pipes is between 20 and 100 years. This is a wide range, so to narrow it down, it helps to know which type of material your pipes are made from. Copper and cast iron have the longest lifespan&mdash;between 50 and 100 years&mdash;while other materials, such as galvanized steel and brass, last for 50 years or less. </p></div>

Q: Will water pipes unfreeze on their own?

• <div><p>Water pipes will unfreeze once temperatures stay above freezing long enough to thaw. As things warm up, you might hear gurgling and banging sounds from the pipes. It can take a while for the pipes to unfreeze, and they won&rsquo;t without help if temperatures stay below freezing. Open cupboard doors, turn up the heat, and get out hair dryers, heat guns, space heaters, and heat lamps to speed up the thawing process. If you live where it&rsquo;s frequently below freezing, consider whether <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/is-pipe-insulation-worth-it.htm">pipe insulation is worth installing</a>.</p></div>

Q: Do all toilets fit the same hole?

• <div><p>Most toilets have a 12-inch rough-in or hole, but some have 10- or 14-inch holes, which means that not all toilets fit all setups. Knowing how to measure the rough-in is essential, so you purchase a toilet that fits the existing drain hole. It can be costly to have the rough-in moved, and most stores don&rsquo;t accept toilet returns.</p></div>

Q: What temperature should I set my thermostat to so my pipes don't freeze?

• <div><p>When outside temperatures drop below 32 degrees Fahrenheit, your pipes are at risk of freezing. To prevent this, set your thermostat to no lower than 55 degrees. For added safety, especially when you are away from home, maintaining a temperature between 55 and 60 degrees will provide enough warmth to keep pipes from freezing and help you avoid expensive water damage from burst pipes.</p></div>
