Common Plumbing Problems in Miramar Homes
Miramar treats its water at 2 plants using reverse osmosis and nanofiltration membranes. The East plant, first built in the late 1950s, switched from lime softening to membranes in 2019, and the West plant serves the area west of Palm Avenue.
The city is adding Floridan aquifer wells to rely less on the Biscayne aquifer. The median Miramar home was built in 1996.
East and West of Palm Avenue
Historic Miramar in the east has houses from the 1950s and 1960s, often with cast iron drains and older copper. West of Palm Avenue, most homes are from the 1990s and 2000s, with water heaters and fixtures reaching replacement age. The West plant serves that side of the city. Knowing which you have helps a plumber plan the repair.
