Backflow is the reversal in the flow of water from a real or potential source of contamination back to the clean water supply. Backflow prevention valves keep unclean water from backing up into your clean water source. Backflows are essential and necessary on certain appliances and equipment that are fed by water in your home or building. They are needed to keep the potable water system clean and suitable for drinking and contribute to protecting the public health. Call (617) 818-1229 to schedule an appointment with a T-flow plumber in the Boston area or to speak with us about a backflow prevention issue.
A sump pump is your best option in regards to keeping your basement dry. If you consistently have problems with wetness in your basement a new or upgraded sump pump system is the answer you've been looking for to keep your home dry and increase its value. At T-Flow Inc. we have done many sump pump installations from scratch. Several of our customers have been pleasantly surprised to find that after we had installed a sump pit and pump in the lowest area in their basements their flooding problems had come to an end.
If you have natural gas in your neighborhood and are lucky enough to have it piped to your home then you have a huge advantage to those that do not. It provides you with another option for energy besides oil or electricity. A person can run their heating system, cooking appliances, hot water systems and even have a fireplace that is fueled by gas so that a cozy fire is only a push button away. A gas system can be very useful and help things be more affordable but it can also be very dangerous if not installed or repaired properly.
A sump pump can be one of the most important devices in your home. What are the possibilities when it stops working during a major storm or flood? It is the only thing separating you from a productive day or relaxing evening and days of cleanup and possibly a very expensive remodel of your finished basement. Let's not forget the costs of replacing the mechanical equipment that could be damaged. Hopefully you have taken precautions against such problems by replacing your sump pump after a reasonable amount of time.

T-Flow Plumbing, Heating and Gas Fitting has been installing, clearing and repairing drains for many years now. Drainage systems are probably the least complicated of all of the systems that we work on and unfortunately are the ones taken most for granted. If your drains aren't operating properly you can end up with a major health issue within your building or home so please pay attention to this piping. Look around periodically for any moisture. Watch for slow moving drains and be suspicious of odors.
In recent years we have experienced record breaking low temperatures. During these times everyone's plumbing system is susceptible to frozen pipes. Unfortunately pipes don't just freeze, they expand to the point of bursting and often times do, creating major damage and flooding. It is important for all homeowners and tenants to keep the heat at least 60 degrees during a predicted cold spell. If at some point during a cold period you turn on a faucet and nothing comes out, chances are you have a frozen pipe in your home or building.
We tend to take the drainage systems in our home or building for granted because they are there and have always been there. We just expect them to serve their purpose. Unfortunately this is not always the case because they can gradually block up or become worn or brittle. Once things get to this point there is no choice but to replace the piping. At T-Flow Inc. we know how to take care of your drain replacement project from start to finish. Whether your piping is the old, black cast iron, PVC, or copper we can handle it.
Unfortunately after a certain number of years even the most properly piped drains will develop a blockage. T-Flow Plumbing Repairs & Services has years of experience clearing drains. If you have a drain issue in one of the following fixtures in your home please call us right away. Don't let a small clog develop into something more serious. Call (617) 818-1229 to schedule an appointment or to speak to one of our drain technicians.
Unfortunately at T-Flow Plumbing we have noticed that many of our customers understandably take the proper operation of their toilets for granted. There are several unnoticeable circumstances that may arise with your toilet. Toilets can run (causing large water bills), tank to bowls gaskets can leak, supplies can rupture and the seal from the bowl to the discharge pipe can separate without you realizing it. Please watch for water on the floor around the bowl and stains on the ceiling directly below the toilet in question.
