Does shower water go into a septic tank?

• <div><p>Yes, shower water does go into the septic tank. In fact, all the water you use in your home goes into the septic tank. This includes water from sinks, the dishwasher, the washing machine, and toilets. This water is called greywater. It’s important never to put oil or harsh chemicals down any drain because they could cause a clog in your septic system or even disrupt the natural bacteria needed for wastewater management. </p></div>

How do you get sediment out of a water well?

• <div><p>You don’t need to remove sediment from your water well. Sediment in your water well is normal. The problem is when the sediment enters your water supply. In this case, look into your pump. The size and placement of your pump can lead to sediment in your water. If it’s too big, it’ll overwork and stir up the sediment at the bottom, pulling it into the pump. If it’s too low, it will pull up the sediment that’s settled at the bottom. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) recommends annual well maintenance to check and test for cleanliness, mechanical problems, and contaminants.</p></div>

Q: Can a slab leak cause a sinkhole?

• <div><p>It is possible for a slab leak to cause a sinkhole, but it would have to be a particularly serious leak. A slab leak causes the land under your home to erode and if there is enough movement depressions will form in the ground, potentially causing a sinkhole.</p></div>

Q: Are there standard pipe sizes?

• <div><p>Yes. There are a variety of standard pipe sizes used in plumbing. The main supply line connecting your home to the street is either 3/4 or 1 inch in diameter. Supply lines are 3/4 inch in diameter. Individual components are 1/2 inch in diameter. Meanwhile, your main drainpipe is often 4 inches wide. Most shower and bathtub drains are 2 inches in diameter, most toilet drains are 3 inches in diameter, and most <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/sink-drain-pipe-size.htm">sink drainpipes</a> are 1 1/4 or 1 &frac12; inches in diameter.</p></div>

Q: Is plumbing different in a mobile home versus other homes?

• <div><p>Yes, plumbing is different in a mobile home than in a traditional home. Because mobile homes are not permanent structures, the plumbing has a unique design and is routed through a crawl space under the home. In addition, the permits and building codes for mobile home plumbing are usually different, as are the materials. Talk to a certified professional plumber who has experience with mobile home plumbing to understand the design and installation of your mobile home.</p></div>
