Are bathtub drains universal?

• <div><p>The plumbing industry has standardized the sizes for bathtub drains. They are <b>1 1/2 inches wide</b> to fit all standard bathtubs from <b>14 to 26 inches deep</b>. The standard sizing is to ensure that the drain fits into the P trap, a special part of your piping that prevents sewer water from bubbling up into your home (yuck).</p></div>

Is it safe to flush the toilet when pipes are frozen?

• <div><p>It is safe to flush the toilet even if the pipes are frozen, and this may even help clear out the pipes. But if the supply line is frozen, the toilet won’t refill itself until it’s thawed out. You can still flush by pouring water into the tank to refill it.</p></div>

Q: Can frozen underground pipes burst?

• <div><p>Yes, frozen underground pipes can burst. When water inside the pipe freezes, it expands, increasing pressure on the pipe walls. If the pressure becomes too great, it can cause the pipe to crack or burst, leading to significant water damage when the ice eventually thaws.</p></div>

Q: What is the air admittance valve on a washer drain?

• <div><p>The air admittance valve, or AAV, is a spring-loaded mini-vent that sits right next to your washer. It acts in place of a standard vent stack connection, opening to let air into the drain whenever pressure builds up. It otherwise stays closed to prevent sewer gas from escaping into your home. This gives the washer&rsquo;s plumbing system the air it needs when water enters or drains.</p></div>

Q: What is the best type of pipe for plumbing?

• <div><p>Polyvinyl chloride, or PVC, pipes are considered one of the best pipe types for drains and vent lines due to their low price point, lightweight material, corrosion resistance, and installation ease. But copper has long been considered the best piping option due to its durability. For many homeowners, though, the price of copper can be cost-prohibitive. </p></div>

"My wife is happy so bonus. But seriously It was like a swamp, but now it is nice and dry and my basements moisture is controlled. The front side area by the driveway is now nice and clear and level. Once the grass comes in, it will look amazing. Huge help. polite and respectful crew. Super glad I spent the money to have it professionally done. I’d probably still be digging a year later. Thanks!"
