Common Plumbing Problems in Lehi Homes
Lehi runs 2 water systems. Drinking water comes from 5 city wells and a spring system in Alpine, plus water bought from the Central Utah Water Conservancy District.
Outdoor water comes through a separate pressurized irrigation system that has run since 1990. City ordinance says drinking water is not to be used for outdoor watering, and the irrigation season runs April 15 to October 15. The median Lehi home was built in 2007.
Two Lines Into One Yard
Your house has a drinking water line and a separate irrigation line, each with its own shutoff. The irrigation water is untreated and must never be connected to house plumbing. If a leak shows up in the yard, find out which line it is before digging: the irrigation side is off from mid-October to mid-April.
Before a Utah Valley Winter
- Shut off and drain outdoor faucets from the inside valve before the first hard freeze.
- Insulate pipes along outside basement walls and in crawl spaces.
- Shut off and drain the pressurized irrigation line after October 15.
- Find the main shutoff, usually where the water line enters the basement. See frozen pipes.
Water Heater Replacement
Tanks installed in the 2000s are at the end of their life.

No plumber can quote a firm price before seeing the problem. These are the things that move the cost of plumbing work in Lehi.
- Finished basements. Opening and patching drywall adds to a leak repair.
- Which line. Irrigation repairs and drinking water repairs use different parts and rules.
- Finding the problem. Leak locating and camera inspections are separate steps, but they keep the repair itself small.
- Time of day. Many companies charge an after-hours, weekend or holiday fee.
- Ask for the arrival fee before the plumber heads out, and for the repair price in writing before work starts.
