Q: Are most bathtub faucets universal?

• <div><p>While all bathtub faucets include a spout and one or two handles, they are not universal. The installation method is mostly the same, but the faucets will vary and may use different mounting systems or connections. This is why it&rsquo;s important to take your original faucet with you to the hardware store, so you can match it to the new faucet.</p></div>

Q: Why does my faucet water stain my sink brown?

• <div><p>Sink discoloration from water is caused by any of a number of different kinds of minerals in hard water, including iron and manganese. To avoid the staining that hard water can cause, install a water softener to remove minerals from the water as it enters your home. Rusty pipes can also cause discoloration, and may be the culprit if only one sink is stained. </p></div>

Q: What chemicals do plumbers use to unclog drains?

• <div><p>Professional plumbers use many high-grade chemicals to unclog drains. Many use hydrochloric acid, known as muriatic acid, when it comes to extreme blockages. </p></div>

Q: How do you know if the plumbing vent is causing plumbing problems?

• <div><p>Constant problems with plumbing throughout the home may point toward the plumbing vent being the culprit. If a blockage or <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/vent-stacks-air-out-your-plumbing.htm">clog occurs in the plumbing vent</a>, it can quickly lead to the entire plumbing system throughout the home failing. Tackle clogs as soon as they happen, and if it&rsquo;s a constant problem, bring in a local plumber to look at repairs.</p><p>Be on the lookout for multiple points of the plumbing system causing problems, such as if there&rsquo;s a strong scent coming from the home or if you notice the plumbing vent on the roof is damaged.</p></div>

Q: How long does it take to thaw frozen underground pipes?

• <div><p>Depending on the severity of the freeze and the method used, thawing frozen underground pipes can take anywhere from 30 minutes to several hours. Applying heat directly to the pipe using heat tape, infrared lamps, or hot water jetting can speed up the process. However, patience and careful monitoring are key to avoiding pipe damage.</p></div>
