The hidden dangers of tree roots in plumbing systems are a growing concern for homeowners and property managers alike. Tree roots can cause significant damage to pipes, leading to costly repairs, water main breaks, and even safety hazards.
Tree roots are not just limited to residential properties; they can also affect commercial buildings and public spaces. According to the American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE), tree root infiltration into underground utilities is a major contributor to urban flooding, while the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) warns that tree root damage can lead to injuries and fatalities.
Tree roots can cause significant problems in plumbing systems by: * Clogging pipes with debris, including leaves, twigs, and other organic matter * Damaging pipes and fittings through abrasion and erosion * Increasing the risk of sewage backups and contamination
