Summer in Maryland is the perfect time for outdoor events—festivals, weddings, al fresco dining, and more. For businesses like event venues, restaurants, and catering services, this means managing increased customer numbers and higher demands on plumbing systems. Whether it’s bustling restrooms or busy commercial kitchens, ensuring your plumbing system operates without a hitch is essential for customer satisfaction and maintaining operations.
Linthicum Plumbing is here to offer expert guidance and services to keep your business running smoothly amid the seasonal rush. Here’s how to prepare your plumbing system for heavy summer use.
Key Tips for Plumbing Maintenance During Outdoor Event Season
1. Check for Leaks Before the Season Kicks Off
Even minor leaks can lead to big problems during peak event season when plumbing systems are pushed to their limits. Check pipes, faucets, sinks, and toilets for any signs of dripping or wet spots, and schedule repairs immediately. Neglecting leaks can result in higher water bills and potential damage to your plumbing. Linthicum Plumbing provides thorough leak detection and repair services to ensure your system is ready for increased demand.
2. Ensure Proper Drainage
Outdoor events often mean more food and beverages, which can lead to clogs in drains and grease traps. Regular drain cleaning is essential to prevent blockages in your bathrooms and commercial kitchens that could throw off your entire operation. Linthicum Plumbing offers professional drain cleaning services to keep things flowing smoothly, even during your busiest days.
3. Maintain Water Pressure
Low water pressure can frustrate customers, whether they’re washing their hands or waiting for their drinks in the bar. Check your plumbing system to ensure steady and sufficient water pressure throughout your property. Our technicians at Linthicum Plumbing can identify causes of low pressure, such as mineral buildup or system-wide inefficiencies, and provide solutions tailored to your system.
4. Service Grease Traps and Other Kitchen Fixtures
For restaurants and venues with food service operations, grease traps can become a serious issue during high-volume periods. Clogged traps can cause backups, unpleasant odors, and even health code violations. Regular cleaning and maintenance ensure your kitchen plumbing handles heavy summer use without interruptions. Trust Linthicum Plumbing to keep your grease traps operating efficiently and compliant with local regulations.
5. Test Restroom Fixtures for High Traffic Needs
Customer satisfaction is closely tied to clean, functional restrooms. Before the busy season hits, inspect toilets, sinks, and urinals for any flushing or drainage issues. Replace outdated or inefficient fixtures with modern, water-saving options. Linthicum Plumbing can help you upgrade and maintain restroom plumbing systems that meet the demands of a full house.
6. Evaluate Your Water Heater
Hot water is a must for food prep, cleaning, and restroom facilities. Summer is an ideal time to inspect your water heater for signs of wear, such as odd noises, fluctuating temperatures, or a drop in heating efficiency. If repairs or replacements are needed, Linthicum Plumbing offers expert guidance and installation for energy-efficient commercial water heaters tailored to your needs.
7. Schedule Preventive Maintenance
Proactive plumbing care is always more efficient and cost-effective than emergency repairs. Before the outdoor event season kicks into full swing, schedule a comprehensive plumbing inspection with Linthicum Plumbing. We’ll identify potential issues and provide targeted solutions to ensure your system remains reliable and efficient during high-demand periods.
