Q: Do you need plumber’s putty to install a sink drain?

• <div><p>No, you don&rsquo;t need to use plumber&rsquo;s putty to install a sink drain. Other options are available, such as silicone putty or silicone caulk. Plumber&rsquo;s putty is the traditional method and it&rsquo;s easier to work with and easier to remove. It doesn&rsquo;t need to dry before using. Silicone putty should dry before you use the drain. </p></div>

Q: Can you fix pipe threads?

• <div><p>Yes, you can fix pipe threads. In fact, the process is the same as cutting new ones. You&rsquo;ll need to use a pipe threader tool with the proper size die head for the pipe. Turning the threader over the damaged threads will clean up any damaged or worn-out threads in the pipe. If the pipe threads are too damaged, this process may not work, and you&rsquo;ll need to replace the pipe.</p></div>

Q: Is pipe measured by ID or OD?

• <div><p>In North America, pipe measurements are listed as the nominal pipe size (NPS). This measurement refers to the outside diameter. As an example, a 1/2-inch copper pipe has an outside diameter of 5/8 of an inch. If a hardware store lists a pipe as having a 2 NPS, it means that all the pipes with this measurement have a 2 ⅜-inch outside diameter, regardless of wall thickness and inside diameter.</p></div>

Q: Can frozen pipes cause a toilet to stop working or flushing properly?

• <div><p>Yes, frozen pipes can cause a toilet to stop working correctly. If the pipes are frozen, water cannot flow, which can lead to two main problems. First, the supply line to the toilet tank may be frozen, which prevents the tank from refilling with water after you flush. Second, the drain pipe itself can freeze, blocking water from flushing away. As a temporary solution for a non-refilling tank, you can manually add water, but this is not a long-term fix. To clear a frozen drain pipe, you can try pouring warm water into the toilet bowl or tank and then flushing, as the warm water may help thaw the ice blockage. Ultimately, the best course of action is to unfreeze the affected pipes to restore your toilet to full functionality.</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>
