A dripping faucet is a very common plumbing problem and if you have any drips or leaks, it might be time for an upgrade or remodel! Faulty or leaky faucets are very annoying and they can lead to floods, high bills and foundation problems.
Faucets are important parts of your water systems because faucets regulate the flow of liquids from a reservoir like a tank or pipe. If your faucet is faulty, it will be difficult to acquire the liquids you are requesting for whatever the need.
Faucets can be found on kitchen sinks, bathroom tubs, bathroom sinks, shower, in laundry room areas, in the garage, attached outside on the wall of a house and various other kitchen or home fixtures.
Water faucets typically have two valves. Usually one of those valves is the hot water valve which is labeled with an "H" or with the color red. The other valve is the cold water valve which is labeled with a "C" or color blue.
Water faucets are typically installed with a pressure balancer. This helps avoid water spikes such as scalding hot water or icy-cold water when someone flushes a toilet or turns on a sink in another room. The latest designs in faucets have built in thermostats.
All faucets contain moving parts and will eventually break down and wear out over time. You should check your faucet regularly and report problems immediately to your local plumber.
