[http://www.addabazz.com/index.php?p=blogs/viewstory/1238428 Plumbing Tips That Will Greatly Help You Out] To keep your pipes from getting frozen, always maintain a temperature in the house above freezing and make sure all pipes exposed to outside elements are insulated properly. But, be advised that your pipes may freeze if the surrounding temperature near those pipes is less than freezing. It will take a while for the pipes to thaw, leaving you without running water. But, they could also burst, causing a mess and a large repair bill.
+
If one of your water pipes freezes, turn on the tap to the faucet nearest the pipe so that the water has somewhere to exit as the pipe thaws. This gives the pressure somewhere to go, and can keep them from bursting.

  Don't give a plumber the total bill payment upfront; pay them only when they have finished the job. It is customary to put down one-third to one-half of the total cost before the work is started, but do not pay in full until it is complete. You should make sure the plumber did a good job before you pay in full.

Ensure that a septic tank is emptied approximately five yearly, and make sure it is properly maintained. Deposit and debris build up in your tank can result in major problems. Although it is somewhat of an expense to pump out a septic tank, it is nothing compared to what you will have to spend on cleaning up a backup of sewage or repairing or replacing your septic system.
To ensure garbage disposal lasts long in your home, be sure you keep it cleaned regularly. By having a regular cleaning routine, which includes a combination of lemon rinds, dish soap and even pits from a cherry, your disposal can be kept smelling fresh and running smoothly for many years to come.

Check your fixtures to ensure the overflow holes are clear of debris and mineral build-up. The overflow holes are there to make sure the sink doesn't overfill, which can become a problem if they are blocked. Make cleaning debris from the overflow holes part of your regular routine of maintaining your plumbing and checking it for problems and required repairs.
+
Ensure overflow holes have not been clogged. Overflow holes are one of those things which you forget about until you need them. When you do periodic checks for any other problems or repairs that are needed, take the time to clear the holes that are there to protect you from overflow.
-
When running your garbage disposal, always use a lot of cold water. Cold water will allow for the food particles to be properly disposed of while keeping the blades sharp. Don't use hot water while running the garbage disposal. Hot water converts the grease in your trash to liquid form. When the liquified grease goes down the drain, it clogs the pipes.
+
Put strainers in the bottoms of your drains to stop any clogging agents from escaping down the drain. Clean your kitchen strainer often, particularly if you can see debris accumulating. Strainers placed in a bathtub can be cleaned periodically.
-
If you want to make sure your garbage disposal is going to be around as long as the house it is inside of, make sure you clean it often. Using lemon rinds and cherry pits mixed with dish soap will help keep your garbage disposal operating efficiently and smelling fresh.
+
  If you are seeing water at the bottom of the dishwasher, most likely this is due to a faulty setup of the hose that leads from the kitchen sink. A hose that is properly installed should lead uphill, then downhill, to discourage water from each area from mixing.
