Dripping faucet — San Francisco, California
A dripping faucet is more than an annoyance — it can waste thousands of gallons a year and signal worn-out washers, O-rings, or cartridge seals. A plumber can replace the internal components and stop the drip for good.
Waarom dit veel voorkomt in San Francisco
San Francisco's Victorian and Edwardian housing stock hides original galvanized and cast-iron pipes long past their service life, prone to corrosion and low pressure. Hilly terrain complicates drainage, and seismic shifting periodically cracks pipe joints and sewer laterals.
