Heatwave Preparation
All over the country, we are seeing record-breaking temperatures, summer is most definitely here and so is the heatwaves. During these super hot times, it is essential to ensure that your plumbing is up to date. Be prepared for the heat waves and don't get caught. Contact your local plumber and have them carry out an inspection of your home.
The last thing you want during a heatwave is the inability to access cool clean water. This will not only be an inconvenience, but it could also potentially be damaging to your wellbeing.
Home Inspections
Most of us take running water for granted. This is of course until it isn't running like it should. During the hot season, it is essential to have consistent running water. We need water like we need air, especially during summer. Having a local plumber come out and perform the following could prevent future problems.
- Leak detection
- Check taps are running correctly
- Check water pressure
- Check drains for blockages
Importance of Water
The cells, organs and tissues in our bodies require water in order to help regulate our temperature and maintain bodily functions. Our bodies lose water through sweating, digestion and breathing. During summer we tend to sweat a lot more than normal so it is important to rehydrate your body with water as much as possible.
Health risks associated with not having water
Without having access to a consistent water supply your body will start to suffer. From not drinking water you could end up with one or all of the following:
- Fatigue
- UTI's
- Kidney stones
- Cramps
- Digestive problems
- Stomach ulcers
Home Protection
Summer is also the start of bushfire season, with total fire bans during these hotter months. It is essential to make sure that all of your outside taps and hoses are readily available in the event of a fire near your home. Having recycled water taps outside would be perfect for this application, as well as giving your plants a drink during the heat.
