Prevention of the Water Supply System

Regular maintenance of the plumbing system is the key to a peaceful life. It can save you a lot of unexpected expenses in the future.
 
Prevention of the water supply and sewerage system includes detailed diagnosis of possible existing problems related to the water supply network in your apartment, house, office or shop.
 
Our professional plumbers will carefully carry out all the steps related to the inspection of your plumbing installation:
 

  • Inspection and cleaning of drains
  • Shower and faucet inspection - carefully tested for opening and closing properly
  • Check for leaks from connections
  • Check for blocked drains

There are different ways to detect smaller and hidden leaks.
 
One of the methods we use is the so-called hydraulic test. In this case, the test section is isolated from the rest of the system and creates air or water pressure. A pressure gauge is fitted and a pressure drop is monitored after a period of time, which indicates leakage. Plumbers check that the tolerance is within the normal range. If not, they are looking for a problem area so they can react properly.
 
Another way to locate small and hidden leaks is to use thermal cameras that provide greater precision. Thermal cameras show us the exact location of the problem, which guarantees minimal drift and maximum quick and clean removal of faulty parts of the plumbing system.

Horizontal and Vertical Risers Replacement

Changing horizontal and vertical risers is crucial for your home. It can save you unnecessary costs of running out of water as well as provide you with trouble-free and quiet operation of the water supply network.
 
The types of tubes used in the replacement of the risers are polypropylene, polyethylene and copper.
 
The most widespread are polypropylene. Their advantages are:
 

  • Long life
  • They do not rust
  • Easy to operate
  • Use of a soldering iron to attach the pipes to the fittings
  • Do not release harmful substances

 
For hot water pipes are used with an aluminum insert, which increases the strength of the pipe.
 
Polyethylene pipes are used mainly for streets, when building the power supply from the street to the building.
 
Copper pipes are more difficult to repair and more expensive. In these, the connections are made by soldering.
 
It takes a couple of hours to 1 day to replace the risers in one floor, depending on the access to the pipes.
 
When changing the horizontal bar, we still need to know in advance the location of the bathroom - sinks, batteries, showers and more.
 
PVC sewer pipes and fittings are used for sewer pipes, which are bonded to a special PVC glue.
