• Check for leaks – Inspect all faucets and visible pipes. This can include in the basement, below sinks or any other exposed areas. A leak can not only raise your bill quickly, but it could also lead to potential water damage, mold and mildew.
• Consider drain cleaning – Make drain cleaning a part of regular spring maintenance. This is a good time to check for clogs or buildup, which can lead to plumbing problems and also begin to smell.
• Drain your water heater – It can be helpful to drain a few gallons — or the entire tank — of water from your water heater annually. Sediment can begin to build up in the base of the water heater, which can not only find its way into your water supply but also impact energy efficiency.

"Every spring cleaning checklist should have a plumbing section," Akhoian said. "Dusting, sweeping and cleaning are important, and they're a great way to start off spring. But, while it can be easy to focus on appearance and aesthetics, a homeowner needs to make the plumbing and inner workings of a house a priority, too. A dusty shelf might be an eyesore, but an overlooked plumbing problem could cost a homeowner hundreds or even thousands of dollars."
