Q: When is a sewage ejector pump needed and what is its purpose?

• <div><p>A sewage ejector pump is necessary if you have any plumbing fixtures, such as a bathroom, laundry room, or sink, located below the level of your home's main sewer line. Standard plumbing relies on gravity to drain wastewater and solid waste into the municipal sewer system or a septic tank. For fixtures below this level, like those in a basement, gravity cannot move the waste upward. The ejector pump provides the force needed to pump the sewage up to the main line. Without one, wastewater from below-ground fixtures would back up, potentially causing a sewage overflow and flooding. If all of your plumbing is on the main floor or higher, gravity is sufficient and an ejector pump is not needed.</p></div>

Q: Can you water plants with water softened with potassium chloride?

• <div><p>Yes, you can water plants with water softened with potassium chloride. Potassium is a vital nutrient for plants, so using this type of water is harmless and can even be enriching. It is often a better option than water softened with sodium chloride, as too much sodium can build up in the soil and make it difficult for plants to absorb the water they need. If you notice that your plants are not tolerating the treated water, try letting it sit in a watering can for one to five days to allow the chlorine to diminish.</p></div>

Q: How do I unclog a washing machine drain pipe?

• <div><p>To unclog the drain pipe, remove the machine's drain hose from the pipe or sink drain, being careful to contain any water in it. Next, use a plunger for sink drains or a plumbing snake for a wall drain. Test the repair by pouring a small amount of water into the pipe before trying it with a laundry load. </p></div>

Q: Is a leaking water pipe an emergency?

• <div><p>If you have a huge leak like a burst pipe, it&rsquo;s an emergency, and you should call a plumber immediately. <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/burst-pipe-repair-cost.htm">Burst pipe repair costs</a> range between <b>$150 and $5,000</b>, depending on the location of the pipe and the severity of the leak.</p><p>On the other hand, more minor leaks can go undetected for a while, which can cause water damage to your cabinets, walls, flooring, or ceiling. So while you don&rsquo;t need to call it an emergency, you should still worry about a small leak. Get a temporary pipe leak solution in place while you wait for a plumber.</p></div>

Q: What temperature do pipes freeze in a house?

• <div><p>Water freezes at 32 degrees Fahrenheit, but the actual <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/what-temperature-pipes-freeze.htm">temperature that can cause frozen pipes</a> can vary. Generally, it takes 12 hours for pipes to freeze at 32 degrees Fahrenheit.</p><p>Uninsulated pipes can freeze if it&rsquo;s 20 degrees Fahrenheit or colder for over three hours. If your pipes are insulated, it can take six hours or longer for pipes to freeze. Note that some pipe types freeze more often than PEX pipes. <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/pex-or-copper-pipe-more-likely-freeze.htm">Copper pipes freeze</a> more often because the copper conducts energy and loses heat quickly.</p></div>
