What is a GFCI outlet?

A GFCI (ground fault circuit interrupter) outlet helps protect people and property by interrupting electrical current when it detects an abnormal condition.

Why install GFCI outlets in a home?

GFCI outlets are installed to improve electrical safety and reduce the risk of electric shocks, electrical fires, and damage to connected devices.

Where are GFCI outlets most important?

GFCI outlets are especially relevant in areas where water may be present—such as kitchens and bathrooms—because they can cut power if water comes into contact with an electrical device.

What are the benefits of GFCI outlets?

Benefits include helping prevent electric shocks, reducing fire risk, providing additional protection in wet areas, and supporting code compliance with easy testing and reset features.

Can I install GFCI outlets only in certain areas instead of the whole home?

Yes. You can install GFCI outlets throughout your home or focus on more vulnerable areas (like kitchens and bathrooms), depending on your needs and preferences.

Is your garbage disposal making loud noises, humming but not spinning, leaking, or completely dead? These are some of the most common problems homeowners and our 5* plumbers run into and they usually don’t fix themselves.

Garbage disposals in Des Moines, Iowa break down for a few key reasons:

Food buildup and grease clogging the system
Foreign objects like silverware or hard debris damaging the blades
Worn-out motors from overuse or improper use
Incorrect installation leading to leaks or electrical issues

In this video, Golden Rule plumber Bobby Bauer is on-site in a Des Moines home installing a new garbage disposal and professionally snaking a clogged drain to get everything flowing again.

While DIY might seem tempting, garbage disposal installation isn’t as simple as it looks. A small mistake can lead to leaks, electrical hazards, or even major pipe damage. Hiring a professional ensures:

Proper installation and secure connections
Safe electrical setup
Long-term performance without recurring issues
Peace of mind knowing it’s done right the first time

If your disposal is acting up or your drains are slow, don’t wait until it turns into a bigger (and more expensive) problem.

SCHEDULE A WATER HEATER FLUSH FROM GOLDEN RULE FOR $135!
https://go.goldenrulephc.com/4c3h6Zh or call 515-393-4951

In Central Iowa, hard water is a real issue. That means minerals like calcium and magnesium build up inside your water heater over time. This sediment settles at the bottom of the tank and can:

Reduce heating efficiency (higher energy bills)
Shorten the lifespan of your water heater
Cause overheating and internal damage
Lead to inconsistent or reduced hot water supply
Create loud banging or popping noises

Routine flushing helps remove that buildup and keeps your system running efficiently and safely.

Why you shouldn’t DIY this:
Flushing a water heater might look simple—but doing it wrong can cause serious problems.

You’re dealing with high temperatures and pressure
Improper draining can lead to flooding or tank damage
You could miss signs of corrosion, leaks, or failing components
Incorrect valve handling can cause burns or system failure

If your hot water isn’t lasting as long as it used to or you’re hearing strange popping or rumbling sounds your water heater might be overdue for a flush.

In this video, Jaekwon Bradley, expert plumbing technician with Golden Rule, walks you through the step-by-step process of flushing a traditional tanked water heater.

A licensed professional like Jaekwon ensures the job is done safely, thoroughly, and catches small issues before they turn into expensive repairs.

If you live in the Des Moines area and want your water heater running like new, we’ve got your back.
