Plumbing in Ocean Grove
- When a holiday house built for a small household takes a full house for a fortnight, a partial blockage that went unnoticed at low flow can show up.
- Holiday houses sitting empty for months can let trap seals dry out, so a sewer smell on arrival may be a dry trap rather than a blockage.
About Ocean Grove
Ocean Grove's measured centre is 0.5 km from the ocean shore, and the Barwon estuary is 1.3 km away. The Galvanizers Association guide to AS 4312 puts land 200 m to 1 km inland of surf beaches in band C4, and land within 200 m in C5, the harshest band, because salt spray carries inland on the wind. For plumbing that means outdoor items wear faster than buried pipe: hose taps, exposed copper, and the casing and fittings of outdoor hot water units. Before you buy an outdoor unit, read its installation manual for coastal-site conditions.
