Q: How long does a burst pipe take to do serious water damage?

• <div><p>A burst pipe can cause serious water damage within <b>24 hours</b>. Once a leak or flood starts, mold can develop, floors and walls can become saturated, electronics can be damaged, and structural issues can occur. This process may be accelerated depending on the severity of the burst pipe. Call an emergency plumber immediately when a pipe bursts in your home.</p></div>

Q: What are the differences between biodegradable and conventional drain cleaners?

• <div><p>Conventional drain cleaners, like you might buy at the grocery store, use bleach (sodium hydroxide) as the main ingredient. On the contrary, biodegradable drain cleaners use gentler ingredients such as baking soda, vinegar, and boiling water to clear out drains. </p><p>Bleach is extremely corrosive and releases harmful gasses&mdash;hence the need for wearing safety protections like rubber gloves, eye goggles, face masks, and long sleeves and properly ventilating the room while using bleach. Biodegradable cleaners, however, don&rsquo;t use bleach. Therefore they are safer to use, especially if you have a house full of children.</p></div>

Q: Why is my wall wet but there’s no leak?

• <div><p>If your wall is wet, but there isn&rsquo;t a leak, it&rsquo;s likely a result of humidity and condensation from running a hot shower or cooking in the kitchen. The best way to remedy this issue is to run the fan in the bathroom when you&rsquo;re showering or in the kitchen when you&rsquo;re cooking. You can also <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/what-does-dehumidifier-do.htm">use a dehumidifier</a> to help remove moisture from the air.</p></div>

Q: What can dissolve hair in a sink drain?

• <div><p>Depending on the amount of hair you&rsquo;ve got in the drain, the baking soda and vinegar method can help break it down. If that doesn&rsquo;t work, you can try using a drain snake. If you don&rsquo;t have a snake handy, you can straighten out a wire hanger and use pliers to fish out the clog.</p></div>

Q: Should I install a backflow preventer on my drip irrigation system?

• <div><p>Most jurisdictions legally require a <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/what-is-backflow-preventer.htm">backflow preventer</a> on your drip irrigation system. Even if you live in a place with less strict laws, installing one is a great idea. If you&rsquo;re planning to use fertilizers or other chemical additives in your garden, a backflow preventer helps ensure those substances stay outside of your home&rsquo;s water supply. Depending on the complexity of your irrigation system, you may be able to install one for under $100.</p></div>
