Appleton Campbell Inc., your Warrenton VA plumbing heating and air conditioning company, has reached new heights in service and dependability. According to a recent cover story in The News, an air conditioning, heating, and refrigeration publication:

Appleton Campbell Inc., Warrenton, Va., specializes in residential service for plumbing, heating, and air conditioning and will celebrate two milestones this year: 35 years in business and the addition of an electrical service department.

The local, family owned, business has loyally served the Fauquier and surrounding counties with the highest in customer service and satisfaction for 35 years and continues to expand their services.

As the article mentioned, Appleton Campbell Inc. now provides Warrenton VA electrical service. While Appleton Campbell’s electrical service department plan has been in the works for some time, the company wanted to make sure they found the right person who met their high service standards and technical expertise.

Appleton noted that since the company takes a lot of pride in its employees, its work, its commitment to customer service, and its community involvement, they took their time to find the right person who had the necessary knowledge, as well as an appreciation for how the company operates. Several other employees on staff have limited electric service backgrounds as well, so they will be able to help out in the new department.

When summertime hits and Warrenton residents are ready to get outdoors and have a good time, the last thing on their mind is their plumbing system. However, it’s important to note that the pleasantries of heat and sunshine that are so compatible with fun in the sun can also cause destruction and devastation to plumbing fixtures. Taking a few precautions can help you avoid costly repairs from your local Warrenton plumbing company.

When you spend a lot of time outdoors, your clothes are bound to get dirty, especially children who play in the dirt or on playgrounds with dust and dirt and mud. This can lead to excess material in your washing machine hose, including additional lint and large amounts of dirt clogging the hose. By moving the washing machine away from the wall a few inches, you can remove kinks that cause additional blockage, which can lead to bulging, cracks and leaks. Make sure to clean out your machine to keep your washer running.

During a cookout, it is best to have garbage cans for leftovers so you can be more careful what you put down the garbage disposal. Residential garbage disposers are not typically equipped for hefty loads such as cornhusks or other fibrous and stringy foods. You may also want to avoid throwing a great deal of fat that can lead to large clogs in the pipes down your drain. A number of “just-add-water” foods, such as stuffing or mashed potatoes, will also create instant clogs.

Something else to watch for so you don’t end up with a disaster during your party is sewer drain backup. Due to excess rainwater that can seep through cracks in the sewer line, as well as new growth of tree roots that can invade your sewer system at any time, spring and summer are the most common times for a sewer problem. Since you don’t want the mess, smell, or hassle – especially during the neighborhood barbecue – have your Warrenton plumbing technicians inspect your sewer lines prior to risking a backup.

Taking a few simple precautions when it comes to proper plumbing can help you pull off your summer fling without a hitch. And if you find any plumbing repairs that need to be addressed, call our local Warrenton plumbers for fast, efficient plumbing service.
