Frequently Asked Questions
My outdoor faucet froze and burst last winter. How can Leavitt Plumbing help prevent this in Wantage?
In our climate, frozen outdoor faucets are a common issue that can lead to costly water damage. We can install frost-proof hose bibs, which are designed to shut the water off inside your home's insulated wall, preventing freezing. For existing fixtures, we provide proper winterization services, including draining and installing insulated covers. As part of a routine plumbing inspection, we'll identify any outdoor fixtures at risk and recommend the right preventative solution for your home.
What should I consider when choosing a new water heater for my home?
The right choice depends on your household's size, hot water usage, and available space or fuel source. We'll discuss the pros and cons of traditional tank heaters versus on-demand tankless models, considering your upfront budget and long-term energy savings. For families in older Wantage homes, we also assess your current plumbing to ensure a proper and efficient installation. Our goal is to provide a reliable system that meets your needs without unnecessary upsell.
Why would I need a hot water recirculation pump, and can you install one in an older home?
A recirculation pump provides instant hot water at your faucet, eliminating the wait and water waste. This is especially valuable in larger homes or those with bathrooms far from the water heater. With over 30 years of experience, including work on many older homes in Sussex County, we expertly evaluate your plumbing layout to install a system that integrates seamlessly, whether it requires a dedicated return line or uses your existing cold water pipes with a specialized valve.
