Study Notes
Research Presentation: Common House Problems
- Topic: Plumbing Problems
- Title: A study on the problems and frequency of plumbing failures in Filipino Households
- Research Teacher: Mr. Ric Garry Buenavie
- Presented by: Group 4 Research
Abstract
- The research project examines everyday plumbing problems in Filipino households.
- It focuses on issues like leaky faucets, clogged pipes, and weak water flow.
- The study aims to identify these problems' causes and effects, including water wastage, costs, and health risks.
- It considers factors like pipe age, installation quality, and household types (e.g., houses, apartments).
Introduction
- Water and reliable plumbing are essential for healthy living.
- Plumbing problems in Filipino households are a significant concern causing disruptions, financial strain, and potential health risks.
- This research project focuses on common issues in a specific barangay (Putatan, Muntinlupa City).
- The project aims to offer solutions to improve water management and household quality of life.
Statement of the Problem
- The research investigates plumbing problems in Filipino households.
- It examines different types of plumbing issues (e.g., leaks, clogs, low pressure).
- It identifies root causes (e.g., aging infrastructure, improper installation, maintenance).
- It evaluates the impact on daily life, costs, and health risks.
- A survey of a specific number of households will be conducted to gather data.
- The research will propose solutions considering economic and cost-effectiveness.
Research Questions
- What is the significant effect of common plumbing problems on the economic stability of Filipino households?
- Is there a significant impact of recurring plumbing clogs on the health and sanitation practices of families residing in squatter's areas?
- What is the significance connection between low water pressure due to plumbing issues on the daily routines and household management?
Research Hypotheses (Null)
- Leaks and Economic Stability: No significant correlation between plumbing leaks and the economic stability of low-income households.
- Clogs and Health/Sanitation: Recurring plumbing clogs have no significant impact on health and sanitation practices.
- Low Water Pressure and Daily Routines: Consistently low water pressure has no significant effect on daily routines and household management.
Sketch/Table of Observations
- The table shows various houses, types of plumbing problems, and their frequency (e.g., daily, weekly, monthly).
- Potential causes are noted (e.g., worn-out washers, improper disposal, old pipes).
List of Materials
- Teflon Tape: Used to prevent leaks.
- Washers and O-Rings: Used to create seals.
- Plungers: Used for unclogging drains.
- Drain Snakes: Used for stubborn clogs.
Procedures
- Procedures for cleaning drains, using a plunger, and a drain snake are described.
- A baking soda and vinegar mixture can be used to clear clogs.
Results and Discussion
- The study investigated common plumbing issues in 10 households.
- Most frequent problems involved leaky faucets, clogged toilets, and low water pressure.
- This led to water wastage, increased bills, and sanitation concerns.
- Low water pressure also impacted daily routines, and household management.
- The study emphasizes the need for public awareness campaigns, local initiatives, and government support to improve plumbing.
