Q: Where is the best place to put a kitchen sink drain?

• <div><p>The best place for a kitchen sink drain is the middle of the sink. Most people prefer center drains because they allow for better water and waste drainage, and the center location limits splashing because water flows straight down the drain hole. If the sink drain is too close to the edge of the sink, water can collect and drain too slowly. It can also be easier to clean sinks when the drain is closer to the center since debris is easier to wash down and doesn&rsquo;t collect along the sides as easily.</p></div>

Q: What causes an outside spigot to leak?

• <div><p>That pesky faucet leak can have a few different causes, most of which are standard wear and tear that occurs over time, but that doesn&rsquo;t make it any less annoying, especially when the energy bill hits:</p><ul><li><p><b>Old washer: </b>A deteriorated washer or gasket is the most common cause of a leak. Luckily, it&rsquo;s easy and affordable to fix.</p></li><li><p><b>Old packing nut: </b>There&rsquo;s a chance the packing nut (located beneath the handle) is loose and simply needs tightening, or it has been worn down, stripped, and needs to be replaced.</p></li><li><p><b>Freezing temperatures:</b> The water sitting in your <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/freeze-proof-faucets.htm">spigot over winter can freeze</a>, expand, and lead to damage and leaks.</p></li><li><p><b>High water pressure: </b>High water pressure is hard on pipes over time and can cause cracks and leaks, too.</p></li></ul><p></p></div>

Q: Are PVC pipes better than copper pipes?

• <div><p>PVC pipes are more affordable and applicable in most parts of your home&rsquo;s plumbing system than copper pipes. They also require less maintenance. The only major restriction with PVC pipes is their low heat tolerance. Therefore, they&rsquo;re not your best option for supplying hot water from the water heater throughout your home. PVC pipes are also larger in diameter, so they may not fit into certain spaces in your home. </p></div>

Q: Where should you drain a hot tub?

• <div><p>Where you drain a hot tub largely depends on local regulations, but you must not drain chemically treated water where it can damage the environment. Direct the water toward a sanitary sewer drain that will take it to a treatment facility. If your lawn has a dedicated drainage area that&rsquo;s free from plants and foundations, you can likely drain it there. Avoid storm drains, as the hot tub water will enter waterways and could hurt aquatic life. Likewise, do not pour it out directly on any public land or where it can get into your neighbors&rsquo; property. </p></div>

Q: What is the most common backflow preventer device?

• <div><p>The most common types of backflow preventer devices depend on the purpose of the installation. For example, <a href="https://www.portland.gov/water/backflow-prevention/backflow-assemblies">Portland.gov states</a> that the double-check valve assembly and the pressure vacuum breaker assembly are most commonly used in irrigation systems, while the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) states that double-check valve assembly and the reduced pressure zone assembly backflow preventers are best for fire protection systems.</p><p>Ask a plumber for recommendations on the best backflow preventer device for your home.</p></div>

"This was a unique service that ended up being extremely helpful towards my problem. My side by side fridge/freezer was dropped during a recent house move which rendered the freezer door to not close shut. After calling the moving company to fix the situation, they set me up with Neli to assist in the matter. The virtual technician was wonderful to work with and patient as he guided me to what the problem was and a resolution to fixing it, along with specific part numbers needed for replacement items. This was a great first time virtual technician experience for me after being hesitant towards using it, because I’m not the most mechanically inclined. I would highly recommend this service to anyone based on affordability, ease of use, and knowledgeable assistance."
