Whatever you use your Warrandyte property for, if you have a plumbing or gas problem, Dytes Plumbing is your solution. If there is a problem with your drains, gutters, hot water or heating service, you can feel like you are up creek without a paddle.
A backed-up sewer is not a pleasant thing and what you need is the blockage found and the drain unblocked - fast.
The sink is blocked, too much hair has gone down the drain or last night's storm has cracked a roof tile, tin or laserlight and caused a leak in the living room, sure you could go to Bunnings, but a professional will be cheaper, in the long run.
You want fresh water in, waste water out and you want it to go where you want it when you want it. Burst pipes, leaking taps and faulty back flow prevention devices can really put a dampener on your day.
In winter, if your heater develops a fault, it can mean cold nights and expensive electricity bills running temporary heaters. Make sure you do not get left in the cold.
You won’t be able to tell if your heater is leaking carbon monoxide – because you can’t see it or smell it. Be sure your gas heater is safe. Have it serviced at least once every two years by a qualified gasfitter.
Carbon Monoxide and Negative Pressure testing is important all year round, but you tend to notice it more in winter, when your gas heating system is working the most. It is advisable to regularly get your home checked for Negative Pressure or Carbon Monoxide.
A Negative Pressure test will help identify any air leaks in the house which can lead to dangerous air pollutants in roof spaces or simply mean your gas heating bills are higher due as your gas heating system is working overtime to keep the warm air in and the cold air out.
Carbon Monoxide (CO) is the silent killer, a colourless, odourless gas which is poisonous to humans. Symptoms of CO poisoning include headaches, nausea, dizziness and, in some cases, eventually death as the CO gas enters into your lungs and slowly starves your vital organs of oxygen.
CO whenever fuel is burnt or when your gas appliance is not functioning properly.
Flueless heaters can be extremely dangerous. CO and other deadly gases spill directly into your home and mix with the air you breathe. Ensure a room is adequately ventilated when an unflued appliance is being used. Unflued gas heaters consume air and release combustion products into the room and can make the room stuffy if there is inadequate ventilation.
Evaporative Coolers are a popular, cost effective, efficient and safe way to keep your home cool in the hotter months.
But, like everything, these units need regular servicing and cleaning. An unmaintained Evaporative Cooler can be noisy and without regular servicing, the pads and cooler housing can become a breeding ground for bacteria, fungi and mould, which can threaten your family's respiratory health. It is recommended you get your Evaporative Cooling system cleaned, serviced and repaired every 2-3 years.
