A dripping faucet can be due to several reasons: Worn Out Washer or O-Ring: Traditional compression faucets have rubber washers or o-rings that can wear out over time. When this happens, they might not provide a complete seal, leading to drips. Faulty Cartridge or Valve: For cartridge faucets, a worn-out cartridge can be the culprit. Similarly, for other faucet types, a faulty valve might cause the dripping. High Water Pressure: Sometimes, the water pressure might be too high, especially during certain times of the day, causing the faucet to drip intermittently. Corroded Valve Seat: The valve seat is where the faucet and the spout meet. Over time, water sediments can cause corrosion, leading to leakage around the spout. To fix a dripping faucet, it's essential to first identify its type and then replace the worn-out part, or consult with a professional plumber.

A continuously running toilet is not only annoying but also wasteful. Common reasons include: Faulty Flapper or Flapper Seal: The flapper releases water from the tank to the bowl. Over time, it or its seal can wear out, causing water to leak into the bowl continuously, leading the tank to refill continually. Misaligned Float: The float regulates the water level in the tank. If it's set too high or becomes misaligned, water will continue to enter the overflow tube, causing the toilet to run continuously. Damaged Fill Valve: The fill valve controls the water that refills the tank after a flush. If it's damaged or malfunctioning, it might cause the toilet to run continuously. Checking these components and replacing any faulty ones typically resolves the issue. 3. What should I avoid flushing down the toilet to prevent clogs? Answer: To avoid clogs and potential plumbing issues, you should refrain from flushing: Baby Wipes and Cleaning Wipes: Even if labeled "flushable," these do not break down as quickly as toilet paper and can lead to blockages. Feminine Hygiene Products: These products can expand and cause obstructions. Paper Towels and Tissues: Unlike toilet paper, these are designed to stay intact when wet, increasing the risk of clogs. Grease and Fats: While these might go down in liquid form, they solidify when cooled, causing blockages. Hair and Dental Floss: These can entangle with other items and lead to significant blockages. Medications: While they might not cause clogs
