You may not realize the vast number of features of your home or commercial space that require plumbing. As such, it is necessary to hire a team of experienced plumbers to efficiently identify and resolve the issue. Some common causes are listed below.

Common Sources of Water Leaks.

Hot Water Systems

Your hot water system is directly connected to both a water supply and a drain. A fault in either of these areas can lead to leaks, as well as damage to valves, seals and the tank itself.

Air Conditioning Systems

Many air conditioning units use water to cool the incoming air. On extremely hot days, the air conditioner can expel large amounts of wastewater, causing it to overflow.

Worn Out Pipes

If your system is old, it is likely to show signs of wear and tear: like bursting and leaks. AK Gas and Plumbing employs CCTV Inspection equipment to identify problem areas in old pipes, as well as radio locating devices to enable efficient service times and thorough servicing.

Taps, Showers, Toilets and Hoses

All of these devices are prone to leaks and pipe damage. Look and listen for signs of degradation, and contact us if you notice anything different.
