Kitchen Plumbing Systems

In the United States, the typical adult spends around 37 mins in their kitchen, daily. This may consist of prepping active ingredients, preparing your favorite dish, and also the dreaded tasks of doing your dishes.

Even if you do not describe yourself as a cook, there is a high likelihood that you still use your kitchen every day. Many times, we never pay attention to the plumbing in our kitchen, well, until the sink overflows or the range does not light. Then all the systems in our kitchen suddenly matter!

The most essential products in your kitchen, the sink, the range, and also even many fridges require some type of plumbing.

It is vital to understand how the different appliances function in your kitchen, in the event that something needs to be replaced.

Review of Residential Pipes Systems

All functional homes require a vast piping system. Whether it brings clean water right into your home or sends wastewater. Having a really good pipe system is vital to ensure convenience.


The network of pipes may look different based on the house, yet almost all properties include water lines and as well as some sort of drainage system. Several residences include gas lines which require plumbing support.

These are all parts of plumbing systems throughout your home, many of these items are housed or found in your kitchen.

Supply of Water Lines

Water system lines bring water into your kitchen from either for the city supply or your personal well. Houses are typically constructed to have a central pipeline prior in which it branches off to supply different spaces in your home.

The water is pressurized as it acts as a propeller, traveling around the pipes within your home. Specifically, under your kitchen area sink, you'll see 2 small pipelines with shutoffs. One is responsible for hot water, while the other is responsible for cold water.

The chilly water travels straight from the city supply or well. The hot water travels from the supply line, to the hot water heater, and eventually to your faucet.

Kitchen Drainage System

Your home and kitchen also have a drainage system which uses gravity to send waste water out of your home. A drainage system is also known as a drain-waste-vent system or DWV.

When the water flows down the drain it passes through the trap, which is an S-shaped pipe under the kitchen sink. Most of the water travels down the drainpipe and to the sewer, but some water stays in the trap. This leftover water keeps sewer gases from coming back up the drain.

If your sink isn't draining like it should, you could have a clogged S-pipe. If it's a stubborn clog, you should hire a local Raleigh plumber for professional drain cleaning.

The final part of this system is the vent, which is a small pipe that sticks out of your roof. These air vents let air into the drainpipes which keeps the waste water moving.

Natural Gas Supply Line

If you have a gas cooktop, your cooking area will definitely include plumbing. While many people have electrical ranges, approximately half of American homes have a gas stove.

Your gas line enters your home near the gas meter. Your kitchen gas line will certainly branch off of the major gas line. The gas line links to your range with a flexible hose as well as a shutoff valve. This is necessary to prevent any emergencies that may stem from a gas leak

Since gas is extremely hazardous, it is necessary to leave any kind of repair work to a certified plumber in Raleigh.

This was my first time with 1-800-Plumber Air of Pearland. I called with a minor issue with the dishwasher drain hose and asked that a tech be dispatched on Saturday so that I could be home from work. Chad was scheduled between 8am & 10am today (Sat) and arrived just before 9am. Chad was very knowledgeable and explained to me the entire process. He also answered my many many questions about what he was doing as he was doing it. I'm a smart guy but know very little about plumbing. I felt very comfortable with Chad doing the repair. The long and the short of it, 1-800-Plumber Air of Pearland has a new longtime customer and I will request that Chad be sent if possible the next time I have a plumbing issue.

Excellent work by all, starting with the ease of making an appointment, the arrival of the service crew in a timely manner. They were on neatly dressed, very pleasant, explained everything and took the little extra steps to make the visit a success. I have used this plumber three times now and have always had exceptional service from them.

Emanuel came out to inspect why our commode was not flushing properly. After an inspection he describer the options. Since the commode was over 40 years old we picked the option to replace the commode with a new one. He Asked several questions about what we would like and the showed us two options. We picked the one that we liked and he obtained the commode from the ware house and installed it the same afternoon.. He completed the installation and did a great clean up of the area and answered answered all of our questions. I fully recommend Emanuel and 1-800-Plumber +Air

This was THE most painless repair experience! We had a leak in a pipe behind our water heater, spewing water out into space, ugh. Joe and his apprentice, Dan, were here in about an hour or so. They were both so very friendly from the moment they showed up at the front door! After they determined the problem, we discussed the needed repair, and then they began to replace the pipe(s) behind the water heater. This was pretty much an all-day job and I can honestly say it was no problem having them in my home. They were not only professional and courteous employees; they were two very kind individuals, who were also comfortable and friendly around my crazy dogs! I have had nothing but the finest experiences with this company and cannot recommend them highly enough! They are the best!
