While we feel the cold, crisp Wellington winter winds…our drains tend to feel it too. Fortunately for us, we can ‘rug up’ to battle the cold, but it’s going to take a lot more than that to ensure your drains are maintained. Here are our top winter-proofing tips to keep your drains in a positive disposition this winter (and for many more to come)…
Don’t put off repairs
We recommend having your pipes and drains repaired as soon as possible (preferably prior to winter) to prevent cracking, bursting, and reduced flow rates. Our team of trained Wellington plumbers at Tritoflex can provide 30+ years of experience when it comes to all things plumbing and drainage, and we offer a Master Plumbers guarantee!
Time to worry about that hot water cylinder
Wouldn’t it be the worst thing in the world to be robbed of your nice hot showers during these cold months? A faulty hot water cylinder (the water tank used for warming and storing your hot water) is one problem you really don’t need in the middle of winter. There are all kinds of flaws that develop in hot water cylinders; for example, a faulty hot water cylinder can drum up extra electricity if it has to work harder to heat water and keep it warm. If you find your warm water running out a little too soon (or isn’t running at all), it might be time to get in contact with the team at Trito!
A little insulation goes a long way
Insulating your Wellington hot water system could save you a lot of money each winter: it’ll keep your hot water heated for longer, and it’ll ensure that heat sticks around once it’s warmed up inside the tank!
