What Causes Your Main Water Line to Clog?
Main water lines are generally tough and reliable. However, many factors can cause the main water line to develop clogs and fail. Common reasons for water line clogs include:
- Tree root infiltration: Tree roots can penetrate small cracks, joints, and flaws within the pipe. As they grow, they can cause a significant clog.
- Corrosion: Corrosion can cause pipes to crack, allowing soil and other debris to enter the pipe and create a clog.
- Weather: Freeze/thaw cycles can cause pipes to crack or separate.
- Soil conditions: Shifting or settling soil can deform the pipe or cause it to shift out of position.
- Poor installation: Poorly installed or outdated pipes can suffer any number of malfunctions that can cause them to clog.
Signs your Water Line is Clogged
You should closely monitor the operation of your main water line for signs of clogs. The sooner you detect the issue, the less likely it is to cause serious damage. If you notice these, we recommend scheduling service right away:
- Changes in water pressure: Clogs can cause a significant decrease in water pressure.
- Pooling water or damp spots: When pressure builds up, it can cause seals and pipes to break, which leads to significant leaks.
- Gurgling sounds: Gurgling is caused when air gets trapped as the water drains.
- Unusual odors or discoloration: Water line clogs can allow water to sit within the pipes. This allows bacteria to grow, which leads to discoloration and water that tastes “off.”
- Rising water bills: If your water usage rises without an identifiable cause, it can indicate a significant leak in your water line.
