When doing any plumbing projects, you may want to consider other services as part of your installation. Here are some plumbing ideas to think about: Insulating pipes is a good option for colder climates because ice can cause pipes to freeze and burst. Freeze protection is a mechanical feature on exterior garden faucets. Instead of the shut-off valve being on the outside of the house, it's set several inches inside the house. This protects the pipes from freezing. Another suggestion is an insulating water heater, which is a cover for your hot water heater and keeps heat loss to a minimum. A circulating hot water pump is a smart option for larger homes where faucets are a long distance from the heater. It gives a boost to the hot water flow, allowing hot water to arrive at the tap faster.

If a water pipe were to break in you home, the homeowner should know where the main water shut-off is located so they can turn the water off at that point. Normally this is located outside the home in the front or rear of the house where there is a hose bib connection. If a homeowner cannot find it because it is not exposed and accessible, we suggest calling the local water department (you find that phone number on the water bill statement). In the case where the water leak is at a specific plumbing fixture, the best approach is to shut off the water immediately at that location. All plumbing fixtures, including toilets, sinks and basins, have shut-off valves located under the fixture against the wall. If a bathtub or shower is leaking, it is necessary to shut the water off at the main water shut-off and call your professional plumber.

A leaking water heater can be shut off at the top right pipe leading into the water heater. For safety reasons, the gas must also be shut off at the water heater; that valve is usually found on the gas piping at the lower left side of the water heater.
