"I have a tankless hot water heater, Rinnai brand. I called Rinnai themselves to ask who I should call for the repair. They gave me the number for trouble free and I called them. It was a 2 week wait which I understood. I paid them $100 just for the diagnostic visit. He came in, told me the heat exchanger was cracked and that it would be cheaper to replace the whole unit instead of fixing it but he would see what they could do and have the office contact me. I waited 5 days and got no call. My boyfriend finally called Rinnai and told them what was going on and they told him that the unit was totally covered under their warranty and they would replace the parts. Rinnai said they would call trouble free themselves and clear things up and get them out to fix it. The next morning the lady in the office called me and told me they didn’t have a plumber that could work on it and then HUNG UP ON ME! I couldn’t believe how rude and nasty she was when all I wanted was my water heater fixed and they were being paid to do it. I would never willingly use them again and if you are paying them for a service out of pocket or want something done in a timely manner or at all it seems like, look elsewhere"

Drain Cleaning questions, answered by experts

Conventional drain cleaners, like you might buy at the grocery store, use bleach (sodium hydroxide) as the main ingredient. On the contrary, biodegradable drain cleaners use gentler ingredients such as baking soda, vinegar, and boiling water to clear out drains. 

Bleach is extremely corrosive and releases harmful gasses—hence the need for wearing safety protections like rubber gloves, eye goggles, face masks, and long sleeves and properly ventilating the room while using bleach. Biodegradable cleaners, however, don’t use bleach. Therefore they are safer to use, especially if you have a house full of children.

Snakes can occasionally enter homes through shower drains, although it’s quite rare. This can happen when they follow sewer pipes or accidentally find their way into plumbing systems. To minimize the risk, consider installing drain covers or stoppers on your shower drains. Always keep drains closed when they’re not in use, especially in areas where snakes are known to be active.

In some cases, operating a snake can damage your drain and pipes. This depends on the overall condition of your pipes and how gently you operate the auger. For instance, older galvanized pipes covered in zinc are susceptible to scratches when using a drain snake. Additionally, it’s common for newbies to apply too much force when extending the snake, leading to scratches and related damage. You can also crack the porcelain with an electric auger if you’re snaking a toilet drain. If you’re using a manual snake or auger, the risk is minimal.

Anything you drop down your sink runs the risk of damaging and clogging your pipes. Hair, bits of food, and other debris can catch on the item and build up over time, causing a clog. Even if it’s not valuable, it’s definitely worth trying to retrieve the item, or at the very least, asking a pro for specific advice.

Some homeowners use additives every month to help septic system performance, but according to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, the effectiveness of septic system and leach field additives is unknown. Further, additives made with organic solvents or alkali chemicals can actually be harmful to the necessary bacteria in a septic system.
