Cleaning your gutters isn’t the most fun thing you’ll do all day, but it is one of the most important. Here’s a few tips to get the job done: Don’t clean gutters by yourself. Always have a buddy for safety.... Be sure your ladder is sturdy and secure. Your buddy can hold the ladder for added security. Remove debris from the rooftop with a broom or blower. Wear the proper, rubber soled footwear on the roof. Wear gloves, safety glasses, and a face covering if necessary. Use a small gardening shovel or gutter trowel to remove gutter debris. Clear the downspouts by sending a small dowel or sturdy wire down the pipe. Use a garden hose to rinse smaller particles down the spout to be sure water is able to flow freely.

Plumbing problems can be more difficult to diagnose than those in other systems in your home. This is primarily because your plumbing system is largely hidden from you, in the walls and floors of your home.

Water heaters are one of the hardest working appliances in any home; just think, how many things would be impossible without the miracle of on-demand hot water like laundry, washing dishes, or showering. There are three distinct types of water heaters, each with its own unique set of advantages and disadvantages.

When preparing your home for the colder temperatures to come, people often overlook their water heaters, without realizing that this apparent harmless omission can actually lead to higher energy bills, or worse, a breakdown of their water heating system something you do not want to face in colder temperatures. Getting your home ready for fall isn’t too hard. It’s best to make sure everythings working properly. Our water heater experts at Clarke & Rush have prepared a to-do... list that will make sure that your water heater perfoms at its full potential throughout the new seasons. DRAIN THE WATER TANK Over a period of time, especially in the heat, minerals precipitate from the water and settle at the bottom of the hot water tank. This hinders the efficiency of the hot water tank and clogs the drain. So, it is a good idea to drain the water tank at least once a year, preferably before fall. INSULATE THE WATER HEATER TANK One of the best ways to reduce the costs associated with water heating is to prevent heat loss. This can only be done by insulating the hot water tank. The foil insulating blankets are easily available in the market at reasonable prices. MONITOR THE PRESSURE RLIEF VALVE Pressure relief valve needs to be checked. You’ll see if the pressure is escaping or if it’s trapped. This part of the checkup is really important as the buildup of pressure inside the tank can cause it to explode, and that can be a big security risk. CHECK THE ANODE ROD The water heater is equipped with an anode rod, whose main function is to prevent rust from accumulating on the walls of the tank. The anode rod is prone to corrosion over time and after corrosion, it will lose its peak performance. Eventually, it will cause the tank to rust. Therefore, it is imperative to check the anode rod for efficient performance of the tank. TURN THE TEMPERATURE UP Adjusting the temperature of the water to hot is a good method to prevent bacteria from entering the water. The temperature you should be aiming for is around 140 F, as this temperature is enough to fight off bacteria without burning your skin.

Schedule a plumbing maintenance or water heater checkup so you can be ready for fall without any worries.

Time to fire up the furnace! Here are some things to be aware of: Smokey Odor: If you smell smoke, shut off the furnace and call a technician right away.... Musty Odor: If you smell a musty, damp odor from the heating ducts it may indicate a problem with the system. Electrical Odor: Odors similar to an overheated iron or hot metal can be an indicator of broken or malfunctioning parts within your HVAC system. Fuel Odor: If a strong fuel odor is present, shut off the system and contact a technician to perform an inspection as soon as possible. Rotten Egg Odor: If you notice a rotten egg smell emanating from your furnace, this is a seriously dangerous situation. You should open any windows, evacuate the home immediately, and contact emergency services or the local gas company to report a gas leak. Dusty Odor: Dust often settles into the system and oil can seep into components while the furnace is not in use. However, prolonged dusty or burning odors could indicate a serious problem. Chemical Odor: A strong chemical odor, similar to what one might smell in a health clinic or hospital, could indicate your system has a cracked heat exchanger, which can allow Carbon Monoxide into your home. Carbon monoxide is odorless, colorless and extremely dangerous. Shut off the system and contact a professional technician to inspect the unit immediately.
