At One A+ Plumber , we take pride in ensuring your home’s plumbing operates smoothly and efficiently. Recently, we completed a project for a homeowner who was experiencing significant issues with the plumbing under their kitchen sink. After reviewing the situation, we determined that the existing setup was not only outdated but also poorly functioning. With some expert care and the right tools, we gave this kitchen sink plumbing a much-needed upgrade!


The Challenge

The original plumbing system under the sink had several issues, including:

  • Outdated and deteriorating pipes that were prone to leaks.

  • Inefficient drainage due to improper installation.

  • A lack of an air admittance valve (AAV), which helps to maintain proper air pressure in the plumbing and prevent gurgling or slow drainage.


This setup was not only inconvenient but also posed a potential risk for water damage and unpleasant odors in the kitchen.


The Solution

To resolve these issues, we:

  1. Replaced the Old Plumbing : We removed the failing and inefficient pipes and replaced them with durable, high-quality components.

  2. Installed an Air Admittance Valve (AAV) : Adding an AAV improved the system’s ventilation, ensuring smooth drainage and preventing negative air pressure that can cause backups or slow water flow.

  3. Streamlined the Configuration : We optimized the placement and flow of the new plumbing, ensuring it’s both functional and easy to maintain for the homeowner.


The Results

Why Proper Plumbing Matters

Investing in quality plumbing repairs and upgrades is about more than convenience:

  • Prevents Water Damage : A properly functioning system protects your home from leaks and the costly repairs they bring.

  • Improves Efficiency : A well-ventilated system ensures smooth drainage and reduces the risk of clogs.

  • Enhances Longevity : Using high-quality materials and expert installation increases the lifespan of your plumbing.
