The Benefits of Checking Your Plumbing and Heating Systems Regularly

Posted on February 6, 2014

Plumbers tips

The word “plumbing” comes from the Latin “plumbum” which means “lead.” This is because plumbing pipes were once made from lead. Today, plumbing is a lot different than it was in Ancient Roman times. On that note, the development of plumbing really began during the growth of modern, densely-populated cities in the 1800s.

The majority of plumbing services are generally provided alongside heating and air conditioning services. Notably, plumbers can offer plumbing safety tips and even provide an HVAC inspection. Plumbers tips usually involve not putting things like sanitary napkins, tampons, tissues, or cotton swabs down the toilet, and being careful not to put things like animal fats in the faucet. Notably, only a certified plumber is reliable when it comes to offering home plumbing tips, but the vast majority of plumbing safety tips are worth knowing.

In 1947, British scholar S.F. Markham wrote, “The greatest contribution to civilization in this century may well be air-conditioning — and America leads the way.” In addition, air-conditioning was widely embraced by movie theaters during the Depression, despite its high cost, because it was a huge draw for patrons.

Today, plumbing and HVAC go hand in hand. Importantly, if you want to learn plumbing yourself, there are some DIY plumbing tips you can learn to help stave off plumbing problems, but for the most part, it is smart to rely on professional plumbers when you have issues with your plumbing.
