Albeser Plumbing Heating & HVAC: Trusted Plumbing Company Serving Levittown, PA 19054

First, turn off the power to the disposal at the circuit breaker. Never put your hand inside. For a simple jam, you can often use the provided hex key to manually turn the motor from the bottom. If that doesn't work, or if you hear humming, it's best to call a professional. At Albeser, we can safely clear the jam, check for damage from local hard water deposits, and repair or install a new disposal if needed to prevent future issues.

Signs of pipe corrosion in our area include discolored water (brownish or reddish), low water pressure, frequent leaks, or a metallic taste. Older Levittown homes with galvanized steel pipes are especially susceptible. We offer thorough plumbing inspections to assess the extent of corrosion. Our repair options range from spot repairs for isolated issues to complete pipe replacement with modern materials like PEX or copper, which are more resistant to corrosion and can prevent future emergencies.

Yes, absolutely. Installing a hot water recirculation pump provides instant hot water to your faucets and showers, which reduces the amount of time water sits stagnant in your pipes. This can help minimize the mineral buildup and corrosion that is common with our local water, potentially extending the life of your pipes and water heater. It's an efficient upgrade we often recommend and install for Levittown homeowners looking to improve their system's longevity and convenience.
