Identifying the Need for Water Line Services

At best, a water main break can cause problems like noisy pipes, decreased water pressure, and contaminated or dirty water. At worst, the leak can cause flooding in your basement if the break is in close proximity to your home. Serious or prolonged flooding can threaten your personal property or compromise the structural integrity of your building. Responding quickly can help prevent or mitigate those consequences.

The following issues may signify a problem with your water main:

• Drops in water pressure. The faucets in your showers, tubs, and sinks should all have a steady flow. If your pressure is reduced for a prolonged period of time, there could be a leak or break somewhere along the main line.
• Water discoloration. If you turn on a faucet and the water has a rust-brown tint, it could be due to corrosion or dirt and soil entering through cracks.
• Water backflow. When you experience a reverse flow of water or other substance into your treated water supply, that’s problematic. Back-pressure and back-siphonage are two types of backflow, and both can cause contamination and other issues.
• Standing water or soggy spots in your yard. If your lawn or soil is sporting puddles or wet areas, and you haven’t experienced rain recently, it’s likely the water line is cracked or leaking beneath the surface in that area.
• Tree root intrusion. If your line runs beneath or near a large tree or other plants, the roots can burrow into the main line, blocking or breaking the connection and impacting the water supply.

If you detect any one or more of these problems and suspect a break, first, shut off the water to your main valve. This will end the continual flow from the city connection. Next, contact Quality Plumbing, Heating, Cooling & Electrical to set up an appointment for an inspection or repair. You can rely on us for prompt and professional water line repairs throughout Knoxville.

Common Causes of Low Water Pressure

Low water pressure in your home can be frustrating, and it may stem from a variety of issues. Understanding the common causes of low water pressure can help you identify the problem and take steps to resolve it. At Quality Plumbing, Heating, Cooling & Electrical, we frequently help homeowners in Knoxville troubleshoot and fix water pressure problems to restore the proper flow of water throughout their homes.

Some of the most common causes of low water pressure in a house include:

• Clogged Pipes: Over time, mineral deposits or debris can build up inside pipes, restricting water flow.
• Leaks in the Water Line: Even a small leak in your water line can significantly reduce water pressure.
• Faulty Pressure Regulator: If your pressure regulator malfunctions, it can cause water pressure to be too low or too high.
• Corroded Plumbing: Old or corroded pipes may reduce water flow, especially in homes with outdated plumbing systems.
• Municipal Water Supply Issues: Sometimes, the problem originates outside your home if there are issues with the local water supply.
• Partially Closed Shut-Off Valve: If your main shut-off valve isn’t fully open, it can limit water pressure throughout your home.

If you’re experiencing low water pressure in your Knoxville home, Quality Plumbing, Heating, Cooling & Electrical can help. Our expert plumbers can diagnose the root cause of the issue and offer effective solutions to restore normal water pressure quickly. Contact us today for reliable water line services and repairs!
