Atlanta Drain Cleaning
Over the last century, drain plumbing systems in houses have
not changed much in design. Other than updates and changes
to the atlanta plumbing code, requiring improvements and slight
tweaks on existing drains, drain cleaning, drain repair, and new construction,
the drainage section of a plumbing system must function
a certain way. Air is required to aid drainage, so
the system must include vents. In order to prevent sewer
gases from entering the home, p-traps are installed at
each appliance and fixture. These traps contain water, and form an air
seal against odors. These characteristics have been in
place for decades. The materials used to construct the
drainage system, however, have changed drastically. There
is good reason for this.
Long ago, interior drainage
systems were composed mostly of a combination of cast
iron, lead, and copper. Then, after many years, this setup
was found to clog very easily due to the nature of the
materials. Cast iron has rough interior walls, and lead
isn't much better. Food, waste, and lint from your washing
machine all cause irritating clogs, causing drain cleaning requirements for older
lines. Food waste also has corrosive properties, and
will speed up rust formation inside the drains. This combination
leads to deteriorating drains, rust holes, and ever present
leaks. This is where Atlanta Plumber comes in.

the drain plumbing needs repaired or drain cleaned. Otherwise,

high-grade PVC piping to ensure quality and proper drainage
for decades to come. Whether your home is built on a basement
with visible drainage, on a slab with buried piping, or
