Every 6 Months

• Water heater maintenance: Water heaters should be drained and flushed to combat the accumulation of sediments. You can do this task yourself. However, if problems are found a professional must be contacted for more thorough maintenance/inspection.

• Inspect for leaks: Thoroughly inspect exposed pipes and faucets for signs of leaks. This is important to address any leaks early, this task can be done by yourself or a plumber depending on the complexity and severity. 

Annually

• Sump Pump Check: If your house has a basement, it likely has a sump pump to protect your basement from flooding. It’s important you have your sump pump checked annually to prevent water from rising and the water damage that comes with it. This inspection must be completed by a plumber to ensure it works smoothly. Ensure to reach out before the start of heavy rainy weather when you can.

• Backflow Prevention Test: A faulty backflow system will endanger you, and the safety of those around you. This is an annual inspection service that is required by law. Clause 2.2.9, subclause 4 of the NSW Plumbing and Drainage Code of Practice mandates that property owners must ensure all devices are tested annually. Property owners must also submit a ‘Backflow Prevention Inspection Testing and Maintenance Report’ to the Council each year. The inspection must also be done by a licensed plumber in order to meet this compliance.

Every 2 Years

• Water Pressure Test: Your water pressure can wear down or escalate over time. A professional plumber must test the water pressure every 2 years, they have the correct tools to ensure it’s within a safe range. This prevents damage to parts of your plumbing like pipes and fixtures.

• Drain Cleaning: To prevent serious clogs effectively from the gradual build up in your drains, your drains require a thorough, professional clean about every 2 years. This will clear any build up and maintain clear pipes for optimal efficiency in your home.You can contact us for a discussion for your personalised scheduled maintenance plan to keep your plumbing in top condition.
