What to do in case of an emergency water leak?
When a water leak occurs in your house or apartment, there is no time to lose. It is necessary to act quickly to avoid the deterioration of furniture, wallpapers, parquet, and other sensitive elements.
A water leak can come from several elements: In most cases, non-emergency water leaks come from the toilet flush, be careful not to neglect them, for a water leak at the level of the flush of water at the start would come from the seal of the flush valve or water filter with the sealing.
The flush float, often the main cause of the water leaks would come from limestone which damages the skin than all taps, water heaters, aerators, tap heads, valves, flushes, pipes, which accelerates the deterioration of a fiber seal that is too worn by limescale. It is therefore a non-emergency leak, do not leave it lying around to avoid damaging other plumbing elements in your home.
Water leaks mainly come from the piping, there are several piping materials
The copper piping is used for the sanitary water and heating network, gas (more expensive installation, durable over time) is assembled using a soldering station (oxygen-acetylene) to carry out soldering with a welding rod, it is sold in the copper bar and under different length crown, the copper pipe water leakage is often on the junctions.
PER (cross-linked polyethylene) piping is used for the sanitary water network for new constructions or rapid renovation in plumbing (less expensive and faster, rather fragile) it is marketed in coils of 25 or 50 meters in length. Water leaks on per pipes come from the incorrect assembly of the per fittings.
According to Drainage Maintenance Services the lead piping, formerly used for the sanitary network as well as the gas network (no longer used to date, and must be completely eradicated before 2024) the leakage of lead pipes is often emitted due to a bad blow or drilling of it because the lead pipe is fragile and malleable.
