When did plumbers stop using copper pipes?

• <div><p>For a long time, copper was our only plumbing material option. Thankfully, that is no longer the case. Copper pipes have been used since the 1940s and became most popular around 1963. It wasn’t until the 1990s that PVC pipes became popular and began to replace copper pipes. Therefore, a house built before the 1990s without recent updates will likely contain more copper pipes. </p></div>

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’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>

Are faucets easy to install?

• <div><p>Replacing faucets isn’t the easiest task, but with the tools and technical know-how, you can complete this project in an hour or two. If you don’t have any experience installing faucets, you’ll want to hire a plumber to do the work. The average service call cost of a plumber is $333, but it can also give you the opportunity to learn how to install one for future reference.</p></div>

Q: Can you drain a water heater yourself?

• <div><p>You can drain a hot water heater yourself as long as you take some safety precautions. Be sure to familiarize yourself with the unit before starting, let the water in the tank cool down for a few hours, and wear safety equipment to protect yourself, including heavy-duty rubber gloves and safety goggles. </p></div>

Q: Do frost-free faucets need to be covered?

• <div><p>Though frost-free faucets are designed to withstand winter weather in most climates, it&rsquo;s still a good idea to cover your faucets with an insulated cap during periods of extreme cold. Even then, you should always disconnect hoses and drain the faucet before temperatures dip below freezing. Frost-free faucets will not work correctly if a hose is attached because the hose can contain trapped water.</p></div>

Everything was found to be in good working order and no repairs were made. The only problems that I am aware of since the system was installed has been someone setting a thermostat to an uncomfortable hot or cold setting and insects plugging the condensate drain pipe.

Another plumbing company failed to locate second septic tank and would not clean the septic drain pipe when requested to do so. They insisted a completely new system had to be installed ($3k-8k estimate) and did not try to solve the root of the problem, which was obviously drainage. The washer...
