Holiday Home Prep: Optimize Your Plumbing for Peak Season with Lindstrom

The holiday season brings joy and gatherings, but it also increases the demand on your home's plumbing system. From kitchen drains working overtime to accommodate clean-up after festive meals to water heaters managing extra guests, ensuring these systems are in peak condition is crucial. Lindstrom Air Conditioning & Plumbing offers expert services to prepare your plumbing for the holidays, ensuring smooth celebrations. Here’s how to get your home ready and how Lindstrom can help.

Drain Maintenance and Clearing

Holiday cooking and cleanup can put a strain on your kitchen drains. Fats, oils, and food scraps often find their way down the sink, leading to clogs and backups. Kitchen drains see a spike in blockages during the holidays by up to 50% compared to other times of the year. Preventing these issues starts with good habits like never pouring grease down the drain and using sink strainers to catch food particles. However, even with precautions, clogs can happen.

Lindstrom offers professional drain cleaning services that go beyond surface fixes. Our advanced techniques, including hydro-jetting, thoroughly remove any buildup, ensuring your drains can handle the holiday load. Regular maintenance can prevent emergencies, but if a problem arises, our team is ready with 24/7 emergency services to tackle urgent issues promptly.

Water Heater Performance

With the influx of guests and increased usage of hot water for cooking and bathing, your water heater is put to the test during the holidays. It’s reported that water heater usage can increase by up to 40% during this period. To avoid the discomfort of cold showers or inadequate hot water, ensure your unit is up to the task. This involves checking the thermostat, inspecting for leaks, and flushing the tank to remove sediment buildup, which can reduce heating efficiency and tank capacity.

Lindstrom provides comprehensive water heater services, including inspections, maintenance, and installations. Whether you have a traditional tank or a tankless water heater, our experts can optimize it for high performance. Considering upgrading? We can install energy-efficient models that provide more hot water and lower utility bills.
