Congratulations, Dallas residents! Due to a high amount of rainfall, in addition to ongoing water conservation efforts, the Dallas drought has ended — for the time being.

Since January 1, 2015, the Dallas-Fort Worth International Airport has received an extremely high amount of rainwater — 19.28 inches, well above the annual average. For Dallas residents, grass is getting greener and lakes have risen. However, this rainfall cannot hamper conservation efforts, especially as we now head into the peak months of summer heat.

While the threat of drought has left our minds for the time being, Dallas residents need to continue to move forward and conserve water. Here at Benjamin Franklin Plumbing, we believe that plumbers are one of the first lines of defense for water conservation. Continue reading to learn about the 3 biggest ways a plumber’s expertise can save both money and water for Texas homeowners.

1. Preventative Maintenance to Conserve Water

Quality preventative maintenance requires a thorough knowledge of plumbing parts and products in addition to extensive hands-on experience. Preventative maintenance can save you a great deal of money and unexpected property damage. You never know when a bad smell or clog might be a telltale sign of a problem that can quickly escalate. Ultimately, this preventative maintenance will allow you to conserve water and money, both of which are precious commodities in light of the current water situation.

2. Improved Water Quality

Water filtration and subsequent softening systems help to reduce the levels of substances that can often invade your home’s drinking water, such as calcium and magnesium. Plumbers offer a variety of filtration systems that can help reduce the accumulation of deposits on plumbing lines, appliances, and fixtures around the house. As a result, not only will the quality of your water increase, but you will also save money and conserve water in the long run.

3. Innovative & Cutting-Edge Conservation Products

Plumbers thoroughly understand the tools and technology of their trade. They are knowledgeable about products such as tankless water heaters and low-flow appliances. Information and the implementation of water conservation policies will continue to improve as new strategies are adopted to encourage efficient and effective management of water sources and conserve water.

Plumbers are the link to saving Dallas homeowners both money and water in the ongoing battle against the shortage of water. Ultimately, homeowners will save both energy and water by implementing state-of-the-art pipework and products with the help and expertise of plumbers.
