Q: Why won’t my toilet stop running?

• <div><p>A running toilet is not a plumbing emergency, but you will want to try some DIY fixes or call in a plumber to prevent wasting gallons of water. The three most common causes of a running toilet are a broken or dirty flapper, an incorrectly sized chain between the flush lever and flapper, or a float that is out of position.</p></div>

Q: Can you stop a leak with enough plumber’s tape?

• <div><p>You can stop a leak with plumber&rsquo;s tape, but it&rsquo;s not a recommended way to repair a leak. To install it, you have to dismantle the plumbing connection, apply plumber&rsquo;s tape, and then re-install the pieces. </p><p>There are better options for a <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/5-temporary-fixes-pipe-leak.htm">temporary fix for leaking pipes</a>, such as repair sleeves, epoxy compounds, or pipe clamps.</p></div>

Q: How do you open a kitchen sink drain?

• <div><p>A good option for opening up and cleaning a sink drain is to use a &frac14; cup of baking soda and 1 cup of white vinegar, along with a rubber stopper to cover the drain while those materials work their magic. After about 15 minutes, you can flush the drain with hot water. In many cases, these materials can scrub out minor clogs and get the drain working properly again. If the issue persists, call in a plumber near you to get the problem permanently fixed.</p></div>

Q: How do you tell if a drainpipe is frozen or clogged?

• <div><p>It&rsquo;s sometimes difficult to distinguish a clog from a frozen drainpipe since ice technically causes a clog. If the temperature doesn&rsquo;t tip you off, there are a few additional signs that your pipe is frozen. Look for condensation and frost around the pipes. Ice in pipes can cause a banging or clanking noise as opposed to a clog from a softer material.</p></div>

Consequently, a larger tank can help extend the life of your equipment and may prevent future pump issues that could affect water pressure.

If your goal is to increase water pressure, consider these alternatives:

Adjust the pressure settings on your tank to a higher PSI (pounds per square inch).
Replace your current pump with a model that has a higher flow rate, measured in gallons per minute (GPM).
Have a professional install a water pressure booster pump in your plumbing system.
If you experience pressure fluctuations, consider upgrading to a constant pressure system.
