It's World Plumbing Day! Show your appreciation for the hardworking plumbers that keep our homes running - thank them with a smile and kind words!
Mark your calendars for March 11 as we get ready to celebrate World Plumbing Day! This day was created in 2010 to recognize the importance of plumbing and its impact on our daily lives. Did you know that plumbing has been around since ancient times? It's true – they were using pipes and drains to move water way back in the 4th century BC! So why not take a moment on Mar. 11 to reflect on how essential plumbing is, and give thanks to all those hardworking plumbers out there who make sure our homes, businesses, and cities are functioning properly.
Make sure that all of your pipes are functioning properly and that there are no potential plumbing issues lurking in your home. Call your local plumber and get it scheduled as soon as possible.
If you have fixtures or faucets that are outdated, now is the time to replace them. Go to your local hardware store and pick out some new fixtures to give your bathroom or kitchen a facelift.
Take a course on basic plumbing safety so that you know what to do in case of a plumbing emergency. Even if you don't plan on doing any work on your own, it's always nice to be informed.
Plumbers who are serious about their craft often host seminars or workshops in their local area. These events provide a great way to learn more about the latest trends in plumbing and get answers to any questions you may have.
There are many charities out there dedicated to helping those in need with their plumbing needs. Consider donating to one of these charities to help those less fortunate get the help they need.
Properly functioning plumbing systems are essential in order to prevent water contamination, as well as to ensure the safe disposal of human waste. By properly maintaining your home’s plumbing system, you can help reduce the risk of disease outbreaks and other illnesses by keeping contaminants out of waterways.
Saving money on energy bills is much easier when you have a properly maintained plumbing system. Leaky fixtures and faulty water lines can be sucking up your hard earned cash without you even realizing it. Getting your unit serviced regularly can help identify hidden problems before they become huge expenses.
Having a plumbing system that is in good shape means that you won't have to worry about dealing with low pressure showers or clogged drains anymore. This increased comfort level greatly improves quality of life - after all, no one likes being stuck in a cold shower!
