Challenge

Customer called into Pipe Works Service after noticing some water pressure issues in his home.

Solution

Our plumber, Bobby arrived to customer's home and starting the appointment with some questions about what the customer was seeing in regards to the pressure issues in the home. Bobby, with his new information diagnosed the issue to be the pressure valve the customer was no longer working properly. While replacing the pressure reducing valve, he did see that the increased pressure took its toll on the customer's water heater. Bobby addressed this by adding a new expansion tank to the system. After the pressure issue was addressed, the customer brought up how his washing machine supply lines were leaking and those were replaced with brand new shut off , and stainless steel hoses. Another satisfied Pipe Works Services.
