That Constant Drip, Drip, Drip.

Plumbing issues such as leaky faucets are a significant cause of consternation for homeowners.

Among the most commonly seen plumbing issues in the Columbus Ohio area, and luckily one of the easiest to deal with, are simply leaky faucets in your home or office.

Can You Feel the Pressure?

That may well be true in the last year with Covid-19. What about your Columbus, Ohio area home’s gas lines? If you have pressure tested your home or business, it will give you peace of mind that the gas coming into the facility is at the right level. It probably requires the temporary installation of a gas pressure gauge.

Why is gas pressure important? Methane gas is a byproduct of decomposing organic matter…yuck!  When it comes to natural gas you will find that it is predominately methane.  Natural gas is colorless, tasteless, and odorless. Utility companies will actually add a distinctive odor to identify natural gas leaks before it is too late!

Leaking gas lines are not to be taken with a grain of salt. You need to call a qualified licensed gas line inspector in Columbus to troubleshoot the problem. The answer is always Staats Plumbing.
