Expert Plumbing Tips & Insights

Practical advice and industry know-how from the Elkhorn Plumbing team.

A vintage advertisement shows five men labeled as engineer, builder, architect, and plumber examining and installing a large Orangeburg pipe at a construction site. Text explains the pipe’s benefits for projects like the Pocatello sewer.

Does My Sewer in Pocatello Have Orangeburg Pipe?

If your Pocatello home is between 50 and 80 years old, there’s a strong chance your sewer line was constructed using Orangeburg pipe. This fragile, outdated material is known for frequent failures, and many homeowners don’t realize they have it until backups, slow drains, or yard issues start appearing.

Here’s what you need to know about Orangeburg pipe, how to tell if your home has it, and what to do if it’s time for replacement.

Do I Need a 40 or 50 Gallon Water Heater in My Home?

If your water heater just failed or you’re planning an upgrade, one of the first decisions you’ll face is whether to install a 40-gallon or 50-gallon water heater. Most homes use one of these two sizes, but the right choice depends on your hot water usage, family size, and long-term energy costs.

What Type of Water Heater Should You Install in Your Home?

When your water heater gives out, or you’re planning an upgrade, you’re faced with more choices than you might expect. Standard tank? Tankless? Heat pump? Power vent? Each type has real advantages and real trade-offs in terms of cost, efficiency, performance, and how long it’ll last.
