Plumbing FAQs

Why does my tap water look cloudy or slightly brown after hydrant flushing or utility work?

After water main work or hydrant flushing, minerals and sediment can get stirred up and temporarily change how water looks. Cloudy water is often air in the line that clears after a short run, while brown or rusty tint can come from disturbed sediment. If discoloration doesn’t improve after running cold water for a bit, or you see it repeatedly, a local plumber in North Branch, MN can help check for an issue inside the home.

 

Why does my basement floor drain smell even when it isn’t backing up?

A common cause is a dry trap. Floor drains are designed to hold a small amount of water that blocks sewer gases, but that water can evaporate if the drain is rarely used. In some cases, buildup in the drain line can also create odors. If the smell keeps coming back, a plumber can confirm the cause and recommend a lasting fix that fits your home’s setup.

 

What is a sump pump, and how can I tell if mine is ready for heavy rain or spring thaw?

A sump pump helps move groundwater away from the foundation to reduce basement flooding risk. A quick check is to confirm the pit is clean, the float moves freely, and the discharge line routes water away from the home. If your pump runs constantly, makes unusual noise, or you’re unsure it’s moving water properly, it’s worth having it evaluated before the next storm.

 

What does “backflow” mean, and why do homeowners in Minnesota hear about backflow prevention?

Backflow is when water flows the wrong direction and can bring contaminants into clean water lines. It can become a concern around irrigation systems, outdoor connections, and certain plumbing setups. A plumber can explain whether your home needs a backflow device and what’s appropriate based on how your plumbing is configured.

 

How can I tell if a sewer smell is caused by venting issues instead of a clogged drain?

Vents balance air pressure so drains flow properly and odors exit through the roof. When venting is restricted, you might notice gurgling sounds, slow draining in multiple fixtures, or sewer odors that come and go. Because venting problems can be tricky to pinpoint, a licensed plumber can test the system and identify whether the issue is venting, a trap problem, or something else.

 

How do I know whether my property is on a septic system or city sewer, and why does it matter?

Some homes connect to a municipal sewer system, while others use a private septic system. It matters because certain symptoms and maintenance steps differ, and the best troubleshooting approach can change based on what your home uses. If you’re not sure, a plumber can help you identify your setup and guide you on the most practical next steps.

 

What plumbing steps should I take before leaving my home for a weekend in cold Minnesota weather?

It helps to keep the home heated consistently, especially if temperatures drop, and to make sure any known drips or slow leaks are addressed before you go. If you’ve had past issues or you’re leaving for longer, a plumber can suggest simple precautions that match your plumbing layout and risk level.

 

How can a power outage affect plumbing in North Branch area homes?

If your home relies on a sump pump, a well pump, or any plumbing equipment that needs electricity, a power outage can stop that equipment from running. That can increase basement water risk during storms or reduce water availability for well systems. A plumber can talk through practical options based on the equipment you have and how your property is set up, and Benjamin Franklin Plumbing of North Metro can help if you need an on-site assessment.
