What Causes Burst Pipes?
There are many reasons as to why your pipes may burst, including:
Water
Pressure
Over time, a pipe in your house may clog. The blockage puts a lot of pressure on the plumbing system, and when it reaches its capacity, the pipes will expand and eventually burst.
Water pressure is often influenced by materials and objects that find their way down the drain, including fats, oils, hair, and other products. When this occurs, you will require emergency plumbing assistance. Choose Perth Plumbing Co to help fix burst pipes.
While you may automatically think of pipes inside your home, it is crucial to also account for external piping.
The growth of tree roots inside a water pipe can impact water flow and increase its pressure. This will eventually cause a burst pipe that will need to be fixed quickly.
