If the affected drain is underground, the most common cause of blockages in both sewer and storm water drains is tree root. However, blocked drains inside the house can be caused by cooking oils, soaps and hair.
Energy Safe Victoria and the Plumbing Industry Commission both recommend that all gas heaters and internal hot water units should be serviced and checked for Carbon Monoxide leakage at least every 2 years. If you are experiencing headaches, mild nausea, tired or dizziness, or even flu like symptoms when using your gas heater, stop using it immediately and contact O'Shea Plumbing to have the heater checked.
If the pipe work is old steel/galvanized pipes, the most common cause of poor water flow is a corrosion build up inside the pipes. This is generally the case in homes built before 1980. Other causes of poor flow are kinked pipes or faulty or partly shut off valves.
One of the easiest ways to check for water leaks is to time test your water meter. Take a note of the reading/numbers on your meter, and then re-check it in an hour. Of course, be sure nobody uses taps or toilets in the house in this time, it may be easiest to do this when going out for a couple of hours and the house is locked up. If you are still unsure, O'Shea Plumbing has the latest pipe and leak detection equipment and techniques to solve any water or drainage issues.
Water hammer can be causes by something as simple as a worn tap washer. Other causes are excessive water pressure, worn shut off valves, or poorly supported pipe work. Water hammer should be properly diagnosed and rectified as soon as possible to prevent any possible damage to pipes and appliances.
If your hot water unit runs on gas, it is likely the pilot flame has gone out which may have been caused by strong winds or another internal fault. If you are unable to re-light your hot water unit easily, you will need to call O'Shea Plumbing to have your hot water unit repaired and serviced. If your hot water unit is leaking, your relief/overflow valve may need replacement, or worst case is the hot water cylinder or heat exchanger leaking and the hot water unit may need to be replaced.
