Plumbing & Gas Best Practices for the Bow Valley
The Bow Valley's cold winters and hard water put extra stress on plumbing and gas systems. A few simple habits can make a big difference.
- ›Flush your hot water tank yearly. Hard water minerals build up fast here — draining sediment extends the tank's life and maintains efficiency.
- ›Winterize exposed pipes. Disconnect outdoor hoses, drain hose bibs, and insulate pipes in unheated areas to prevent freezing and splits.
- ›Know your main shut-off valve. Locate it, test it, and make sure everyone in the home knows how to turn it off in an emergency.
- ›Monitor water pressure. Keep it between 50–70 psi. Too high can damage pipes, fixtures, and water heaters.
- ›Annual appliance service. Have furnaces, boilers, fireplaces, and water heaters inspected yearly for safety, CO testing, and efficiency.
- ›Know the rotten-egg smell. If you detect a gas odour, leave immediately and call your gas provider — never try to fix it yourself.
- ›Keep vents and intakes clear. Snow or debris blocking exterior vents can cause dangerous carbon monoxide buildup indoors.
- ›Clear space around gas equipment. Never store items near furnaces, boilers, or water heaters — clear airflow ensures safe combustion.
