A dripping faucet usually means the cartridge inside has failed. If replacements aren’t available, the faucet may need to be swapped out. Fixing it prevents wasted water and lowers your water bill.

Toilet gurgling usually points to a clog or a venting problem. Both trap air in the plumbing system, which escapes back through the toilet. Fixing it requires clearing the clog or repairing the vent line.

Unpleasant water odors come from minerals, bacteria, or sediment buildup—often in the water heater. A filtration system and regular maintenance eliminate odors and improve water quality.
