Is It Time to Replace Your Dishwasher?
Modern dishwashers are efficient, quiet, and water‑smart. If yours is causing headaches, replacement can save time, water, and energy. Consider upgrading if you notice:
- Persistent leaks, water pooling under the unit, or visible rust on the tub
- Dishes that stay cloudy or gritty even after a full cycle
- Frequent error codes, tripped breakers, or unusual grinding noises
- Age over 10 years coupled with rising repair bills or high utility use
- Musty odors that linger despite regular cleaning
Professional installation matters. Raptor Plumbing ensures correct supply and drain connections, proper air-gap or high-loop configuration to prevent backflow, level placement to avoid leaks, and verification of shutoff valves, GFCI protection, and code compliance. We also haul away your old unit and test for silent, leak-free operation before we leave.
Drain Cleaning That Protects Your Home
Clogged or slow drains are more than an inconvenience—they can lead to water damage and unsanitary conditions. Keep your drains clear with these pro tips:
- Avoid pouring fats, oils, and grease down the sink—collect them in a sealed container for disposal.
- Use sink strainers to catch food scraps; in bathrooms, install hair catchers in showers and tubs.
- Run hot water for 20–30 seconds after using the disposal; feed small amounts of food with cold water running.
- Skip harsh chemical drain cleaners—they can damage pipes and disposals. Opt for enzyme-based cleaners or call a pro.
- For minor sink clogs, try a cup plunger (not the toilet plunger) and clean the P-trap if you are comfortable.
- If you smell sewage, hear gurgling, or have multiple fixtures backing up, stop using water and call us—these are signs of a main line issue.
Raptor Plumbing provides camera inspections to pinpoint hidden blockages and hydro-jetting to clear grease, scale, and roots without pipe damage. We also offer routine maintenance plans to prevent surprises during the busy season.
