Routine Toilet Maintenance
The following tips will help not only extend the life of your toilet but will also help water conservation efforts. Remember: every drop counts!
#1) Replace your toilet flapper annually.
#2) Check for leaks annually.
Directions for Toilet leak detection:
Dispense a few drops of food coloring into your toilet tank. DO NOT FLUSH! Wait 10 minutes... If the water in the bowl turns color, you have a leak. Call your plumber to correct the problem.

Plumbing DIY
Do It Yourself:
Use salt, baking soda and vinegar to clean out plumbing and sewer drains. Water use can leave calcium, lime, mineral and rust deposits inside of drains and plumbing pipes. Hair, food and other debris also clog pipes and drains. Use vinegar to remove lime, calcium and rust and to disinfect the drain. Salt and baking soda scrub the insides of the drains and pipes. Baking soda also helps with bad odors. These three materials are safe on plumbing and for pets and children.

Plumbing Fun Facts:
The word "plumbing" comes from the Latin plumbum for lead, as pipes were once made from lead.
The use of lead for potable water declined sharply after World War II because of increased awareness of the dangers of lead poisoning. At this time, copper piping was introduced as a better and safer alternative to lead pipes.[3]
