How Do Traverse City Plumbers Diagnose Plumbing Issues?

There's the occasional situation where a property owner calls our Traverse City plumbers for repair help, and they know exactly what the problem is, what caused it, and where it is in their plumbing system—but that's pretty rare. The majority of the time, homeowners have a vague idea of what's wrong, or it's a complete mystery to them, and that makes sense. People tend to think of their plumbing as the parts they can see and interact with—in other words, their fixtures. But the vast majority of any plumbing system is tucked away out of sight under floors, behind walls, and buried underground. So how do Traverse City plumbers figure out what's going on and come up with the right strategy to get it repaired?

Our team has access to modern technology that makes it a lot easier to carry out a thorough yet non-invasive plumbing inspection without the need to cut open your drywall or dig up your lawn. That includes video camera inspection, in which we connect a small camera to a cable, and it moves through your drain lines as it records footage. Once your Traverse City plumbers review the footage, they can interpret it to discover the nature and location of the problem. We also have other methods of inspection and detection at our disposal.

Does My Traverse City Home Have Hard Water?

Michigan, in general, is known for having very hard water, which means it contains a high concentration of dissolved minerals such as calcium and magnesium. Traverse City certainly doesn't have the hardest water in Michigan (that honor goes to Birmingham in the greater Detroit area with a whopping 418 mg/L), but at 164 mg/L, Traverse City's water is still considered hard.

Hard water is perfectly safe to use for drinking, cooking, cleaning, and bathing, but as Traverse City plumbers will tell you, it can be really rough on your plumbing system. That's because it leaves mineral deposits on the inside of your pipes that slowly build up over time until they're partially or completely blocking the flow of water. Aside from annoying problems like slow drainage or scaly water, those blockages put a tremendous amount of pressure on pipes from the inside and can cause serious problems like ruptures and pinhole leaks. The best way to combat the effects of hard water on your wastewater disposal lines is regular, professional drain cleaning services from an experienced plumber. Traverse City plumbers at Mr. Rooter use HydroScrub® jetting technology and other drain cleaning methods to bust up mineral deposits. This clears them out of your lines before they have a chance to cause a disruption for your household. An alternative solution is a water softener installation.
