Home Maintenance Checklist of Pakistani Homes

It is not that easy to get a house in Pakistan, either. The hot summer season, water shortage, and old plumbing system make the homeowner keep the fundamental things of the house in order. It can be the water tank, air conditioner, or the plumbing system. Home Maintenance can keep you away from costly repairs and trouble.

We know how vital it is to have a working home. For this purpose, we have created this detailed home maintenance list so Pakistani homeowners can start their way to their ideal of owning all their vital systems at their ideal working capacity.

Water Tank Maintenance

The water tank is never left out in Pakistani households. It is used to store water that is meant for domestic use. Maintenance and cleaning become inevitable due to hygiene and health.

Monthly Check: Inspect for tank sediment, leakiness, and suspected contamination in the tank.
Quarterly Cleaning: Drain the tank and clean the inside of the tank using detergent and water.
Annual Disinfection: Disinfect using chlorine solution and eliminate bacteria.
Leak Detection: Find the pipes and fittings to check if there is no leakage of water
Lid & Cover Security: Keep the lid on the water tank covered all the time to avoid pests and waste products from contaminating the water stored in your water tank

Potential Indications That Your Water Tank Requires Maintenance

Sour or Cloudy water
Slow water pressure through the plumbing lines because of clogged pipes
Algae or mold within the water tank
Leakage at various stages of the tank and pipes for inlet and outlet
Maintenance of the Air Conditioning (AC) System

Air conditioner is not a luxury good in Pakistan during hot summer seasons but a need. Therefore, proper maintenance will give maximum efficiency and increase its longevity.

Regular Cleaning and Servicing

Filter Cleaning (2 Weeks or Weekly): The cooling efficiency will be compromised, and airflow will be reduced with dull filters. Clean or replace them regularly.
Cleaning Coil (Every 3 Months): Condenser and evaporator coils become dirty and thus should be cleaned for maximum cooling.
Drain Line Check (Every 3 Months): Obstructed drain lines lead to water leakage and mold.
Service Professional (Every Year): Call for professional AC service during summer.

Common AC Issues & Fixes

AC Not Cooling Adequately? Check the thermostat, clean the filters, and inspect the refrigerant level.
Water Leak? The drain pipe should be cleaned out, and the drain line should be checked for clogs.
Odd Sounds? Professionals can handle loose components or a malfunctioning compressor.

Maintaining Your Plumbing Well

Dripping pipes, stopped-up drains, and diminished water pressure are some of Pakistan’s most widespread household plumbing problems. Proper upkeep will avoid high breakdown costs and costly repairs.

Periodic Plumbing Checks

Leak Detection (Monthly): Find leaks in faucets, toilets, and pipes to prevent water wastage.
Drain Cleaning (Quarterly): Clean out minor clogs using vinegar and baking soda.
Water Pressure Test (Annually): Test your water pressure to the correct range in order not to cause damage to the pipes.
Geyser Maintenance (Pre-Winter): Flush and drain your water heater to clear sedimentation.
Septic Tank Inspection (Once Annually): Schedule an annual checkup if your home is on a septic system.

Everyday Plumbing Problems & Fixes

Slow Drain? Plunge or drain cleaner.
Low Water Pressure? Inspect sediment in faucets or suspected pipe leaks.
Dripping Faucet? Replace worn-out washers or seek out a professional to assist you.
