Gas hot water systems are known for their energy efficiency and quick recovery times, making them an excellent choice for homes with high water usage. Unlike electric systems, gas heaters can provide hot water even during power outages, ensuring continuous supply. 

Instantaneous or continuous flow gas systems only heat water when needed, reducing energy waste and utility costs. Additionally, natural gas is often a more affordable energy source compared to electricity in the long term. When choosing a gas hot water system, consider factors like the size of your household, water usage habits, and whether you prefer a storage tank or a tankless system. While the upfront cost may be higher than electric systems, the energy savings over time often make gas systems a cost-effective investment.

Proper maintenance of a septic system is crucial for its longevity and performance. In general, septic tanks should be inspected by a professional every 1 to 3 years and pumped every 3 to 5 years, depending on the size of the tank and the household’s water usage. Regular maintenance prevents solids from building up and overflowing into the drain field, which can lead to system failure. 

Signs that your septic system may need servicing include slow-draining sinks, gurgling sounds in pipes, foul odours, or standing water near the drain field. Maintenance also involves checking for leaks, ensuring baffles are intact, and assessing the system’s overall health. Using water efficiently and avoiding flushing non-biodegradable materials can also prolong the life of your septic system.
