Cedar Hills’ Expert Service for Plumbing, High-Efficiency HVAC, and Leak Detection

Cedar Hills Plumbing Solutions: Pressure, Leaks, and Hard Water

Cedar Hills homeowners must contend with the combined threat of high water pressure (which can damage fixtures), severe hard water, and the potential for hidden leaks that waste water and money.

• Water Pressure Regulation and Repair: The City of Cedar Hills alerts homeowners that high water pressure can damage appliances and plumbing. We are experts in inspecting, adjusting, and replacing your Pressure Regulating Valve (PRV), preventing the surges and sustained high pressure that lead to dripping faucets, pipe strain, and water heater relief valve discharge.
• Advanced Leak Detection and Water Monitoring: With the City’s new water metering system that can detect hourly usage and leaks, prompt response is crucial. We use non-invasive electronic leak detection to pinpoint hidden pipe leaks (including slab leaks) and offer solutions to address any high usage or leak alert you receive from the AquaTrax monitoring system.
• Corroded Pipes and Fixture Failure: Cedar Hills’ hard water rapidly deposits mineral scale, leading to low water pressure due to corrosion buildup in old galvanized pipes and frequent clogging of faucet aerators and showerheads. We perform pipe inspections and full fixture upgrades using modern, durable materials.

Cedar Hills HVAC Service: Extreme Weather and Air Quality

Cedar Hills' location often means dramatic seasonal weather, requiring powerful and efficient HVAC solutions to handle the freezing winters and dry, hot summers while maintaining superior indoor air quality.

• High-Efficiency Furnace & AC Tune-Ups: Cedar Hills experiences a full range of extreme seasonal conditions that stress heating and cooling equipment. Our seasonal tune-ups are essential to maintain system efficiency, ensuring your gas furnace burns cleanly in the cold and your AC unit delivers maximum cooling performance during summer heat waves.
• Indoor Air Quality (IAQ) and Humidity Control: The dry Utah climate, combined with local air quality concerns, makes IAQ critical. We install and service whole-house humidifiers to combat dry winter air and provide advanced air filtration solutions (HEPA or UV) to ensure your family breathes clean, healthy air inside your home.
• System Sizing and Replacement: If your older unit is struggling with Cedar Hills’ varied climate, it leads to high energy bills and uneven temperatures. We provide expert load calculations and installations for ENERGY STAR®-certified furnaces and air conditioners to guarantee your new system is properly sized for peak efficiency and optimal comfort.

Water Treatment and Comprehensive Drain Solutions

Protecting your plumbing infrastructure from the inside out—through water softening—and ensuring clear drainage are primary maintenance focuses for Cedar Hills homes.

• Custom Water Softener Installation and Service: Hard water is a major enemy of water-using appliances. We install and maintain highly efficient water softening systems, particularly vital for protecting appliances like dishwashers, washing machines, and especially sensitive tankless water heaters, ensuring they last longer and operate more efficiently.
• Water Heater Life Extension: Hard water causes sediment to accumulate at the bottom of standard water heaters, which leads to noise and premature failure. Our service includes annual water heater flushing and descaling, along with anode rod inspection, to significantly extend the functional life of your unit.
• Professional Drain Cleaning and Sewer Camera Inspection: Frequent drain clogs or slow drains can signal deeper issues, such as tree root intrusion or pipe bellies (sags), common in older sewer lines. We use hydro-jetting and sewer camera inspection to clear tough clogs and accurately diagnose main line problems, preventing disruptive sewage backups.
