1. Inspect Outdoor Spigots & Hoses
Summer yard work and outdoor fun can wear out your hose connections. Check for drips, rust, or cracks around spigots and hoses. Replace worn washers or tighten loose fittings before temperatures drop.
2. Clean Out Gutters and Downspouts
It might not feel like fall yet, but leaves can start building up early. Clogged gutters lead to poor drainage and can cause water to back up near your home’s foundation and even into your basement.
3. Test Your Sump Pump
If you have a basement or crawlspace, your sump pump is key to preventing floods. Pour a bucket of water into the pit to make sure it turns on and pumps water out properly. If not, schedule a repair before fall storms hit.
4. Flush Your Water Heater
August is a great time to flush your water heater to remove sediment buildup. It keeps your system running efficiently and extends its lifespan—plus, it ensures hot water when temperatures cool off.
5. Check for Leaky Faucets and Running Toilets
A slow drip or a constantly running toilet may seem minor, but they waste gallons of water and raise your bill. Use this month to do a home leak inspection. Catching them early saves money and prevents mold or water damage.
6. Schedule a Professional Plumbing Inspection
Just like a car tune-up, a plumbing inspection can catch issues before they become emergencies. If it’s been over a year since your last check-up, now is the perfect time to schedule one.
