  • I hate wasting water when I run it for a while before the “hot” water comes out truly hot. Is there an easy fix for this?
    Every day, people waste massive volumes of water running their showers or faucets waiting for the water to get hot. The most popular solution is the Grundfos Comfort System. The system can sometimes save a single household as much as 16,000 gallons of water per year! It uses a small pump and special fittings, which we install in certain places in your home, to get hot water quickly to your fixtures.
  • Why isn't my garbage disposal working when we have family or guests over for holiday meals?

    Usually when the homeowner hosts a holiday meal or big dinner, (depending on the season), mashed potatoes or watermelon is served. When large quantities potato peels or watermelon rinds are disposed of through the garbage disposal the following may occur.

    While the kitchen faucet is on during the disposal process, the garbage literally “floats” on a stream of water while passing through the 2″ kitchen drain to the 4″ main house drain. As soon as the kitchen faucet is turned off, the flowing stream of water passing through the 2″ kitchen drain line stops. Any garbage that was “held in suspension” — floating in the stream of water — immediately settles to the bottom of the 2″ drain line.

    As the homeowner continues to intermittently use the garbage disposal, more and more ground-up garbage settles into the 2″ kitchen drain line — which eventually causes a complete stoppage.

    SOLUTION (preventive measures):

    1. Never dispose of potato peels or rinds of any kind into the garbage disposal. Always dispose with household trash, in a trash container.
    2. When disposing of garbage through the garbage disposal, let the kitchen faucet continue to run for 10 to 15 seconds after the sink basin and disposer are empty. This will allow the stream of water to continue to flow, holding the garbage in “suspension” until it reaches the 4″ main house drain — where bathroom discharge will flush garbage into the sewer main.
  • My kitchen and vanity supply lines occasionally still freeze, even though they're insulated. What can I do?

    Cause: Your freezing problem may be a result of the following factors:

    1. Usually the kitchen and vanity sink cabinets are against the exterior walls of the kitchen and bathroom. In the winter, those walls can conduct cold into the house, especially around the pipes.
    2. Because the kitchen sink and bathroom vanity cabinet doors are kept closed, the ambient warm temperature of the house cannot offset the cold that is penetrating through the exterior wall …into the “unheated” cabinet space under the sink. The unheated cabinet space can literally dip below 32 degrees, causing the supply lines to freeze.

    Solution: During extremely cold days, open the cabinet doors, and allow the heat in the room to counteract the cold that is penetrating through the exterior wall.

    If your home has a history of water lines freezing it would be wise to install heat tape and insulate the water lines with pipe insulation. (For help with insulation or heat tape, call Bowers Plumbing, (316) 799-3212.

    Another option (if you don’t mind wasting some water) is to allow faucets to drip continuously.

    NOTE: A steady drip is just as effective as a running stream of water (because running water will not freeze), and that saves on your water bill.

  • When showering, if a toilet is flushed, I'm either scalded or frozen! What can you do for this?
    A classic complaint. To overcome this, the government required installation of “pressure-balanced valves” back in the early 90’s. Homes built before then, however, often do not have them. The simplest fix for most homes is replacing the shower valve, or installing a “tempura valve.” Depending on the house layout, we normally recommend replacing shower valves to fix this problem. Typically, we can do this without any tile work. Give us a call, and we’ll gladly discuss the possible solutions with you.

  • "Their service was excellent!"
    I would recommend Bowers Plumbing. They scheduled us for repair right away. The technician wears booties over shoes, so there was no tracking on the floor. They repaired my toilet and left the area cleaned up. Plus we have a one-year warranty!

  • "Will get plumbing needs done by them!"
    We had a Bosch dishwasher that we bought from Costco and they said they would install and they didn’t. We contacted Bower’s Plumbing and showed up on time and prepared. David the plumber was super nice and knowledgeable.

    They assessed the problem and gave me an estimate with two choices. They began fixing it, had a bit of a change, and let me know of that change right away. I was so impressed with their manners, professionalism, and ability to fix the problem right away.

  • "We would choose them again and again!"
