Q: Is pipe measured by ID or OD?

• <div><p>In North America, pipe measurements are listed as the nominal pipe size (NPS). This measurement refers to the outside diameter. As an example, a 1/2-inch copper pipe has an outside diameter of 5/8 of an inch. If a hardware store lists a pipe as having a 2 NPS, it means that all the pipes with this measurement have a 2 ⅜-inch outside diameter, regardless of wall thickness and inside diameter.</p></div>

Q: How do you find a leak in a pool?

• <div><p>To find a leak in a small pool, place a few drops of food coloring in a random area. If the food coloring flows out, you've found your leak. However, this can be time-consuming and impractical in larger pools. The best option is to hire a pool repair specialist with ultrasonic equipment. </p></div>

Q: How can you save money when hiring an emergency plumber?

• <div><p><a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-find-emergency-plumbing-service.htm">Hiring an emergency plumber</a> is expensive because of the urgency and inconvenience, but there are a few things you can do to help keep costs down:</p><ul><li><p>Minimize water damage by shutting off your water main </p></li><li><p>Clean up pooling water immediately to reduce damage and mold growth</p></li><li><p>Avoid using fixtures if you have a clog or septic system backup</p></li><li><p>Verify that your plumber is licensed before hiring</p></li><li><p>Call a few plumbers for estimates if you can afford a short delay in getting service</p></li></ul><p></p></div>

Q: What costs are generally involved in fixture and pipe repairs?

• <div><p>The cost depends on the parts, labor, extent of damage, and whether extensive plumbing modifications are required. Typical repairs cost $150-$300.</p></div>

Q: Do all basement toilets need a pump?

• <div><p>Basement toilets don&rsquo;t always need a pump. However, it is the most common setup because plumbing systems use gravity to move waste away from the home. Basement toilets often sit below the home&rsquo;s main sewage system, and <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/sewage-ejector-pump-installation.htm">installing a sewage ejector pump</a> pushes the wastewater and sewage up to the main sewer line. Alternatively, you can use an upflush or macerator toilet that breaks down the waste and pushes it straight to the main sewer line rather than via a sewer line from the bathroom.</p></div>

Hiring an emergency plumber is expensive because of the urgency and inconvenience, but there are a few things you can do to help keep costs down:

Minimize water damage by shutting off your water main
Clean up pooling water immediately to reduce damage and mold growth
Avoid using fixtures if you have a clog or septic system backup
Verify that your plumber is licensed before hiring
Call a few plumbers for estimates if you can afford a short delay in getting service

The cost depends on the parts, labor, extent of damage, and whether extensive plumbing modifications are required. Typical repairs cost $150-$300.
