Fountain Hills sits on the hills between Scottsdale and the Verde River, and many homes are built on slopes and hillside lots. That shapes the plumbing: water pressure can vary from one street to the next, long supply runs are common, and a pressure-reducing valve that wears out shows up as banging pipes, dripping fixtures, or a water heater relief valve that keeps opening.

Most of town gets its water from EPCOR's Chaparral system, which serves the Town of Fountain Hills and part of Scottsdale. EPCOR's water quality report says the supply is a mix of Colorado River water delivered by the Central Arizona Project and groundwater from wells under the town, and that you may notice seasonal changes in hardness and taste as the mix shifts. We serve homes across 85268.

Common Fountain Hills plumbing issues we see every week:

• Pressure-reducing valves wearing out on hillside lots with high street pressure
• Scale in water heaters, tankless units, and faucet cartridges as the water mix changes through the year
• Water heater replacements in garages and closets with tight venting
• Leaks in long supply lines that run under slabs and through hillside yards

Whether it's a failing pressure valve, a leaking water heater, or a slow drain, call OX Plumbing. A licensed plumber will diagnose it and quote it before any work starts.

Plumbing codes call for a pressure-reducing valve (PRV) whenever static water pressure is above 80 PSI. On a hillside, the street pressure at your meter can be well above that, and the valve is all that stands between it and your fixtures. When a PRV fails, pressure creeps up: pipes bang, faucets drip, toilets run, and the water heater relief valve starts weeping.

We test your pressure on every visit and replace worn PRVs, so the rest of your plumbing lasts. Sudden low pressure is a different problem, often a clogged valve or a hidden leak; see leak detection.

Because Fountain Hills water is a blend of Colorado River water and groundwater, its hardness changes with the seasons. Either way it leaves scale in tank heaters, tankless heat exchangers, and faucet cartridges. A rumbling tank or lukewarm water usually means sediment; a leak at the tank means it's time to replace it.

We flush, repair, and replace tank and tankless heaters, gas and electric, and install water softening and filtration systems sized for your home. See our water heater services.

For a burst line, close the main shut-off first, then call our emergency plumbing line; we answer 24/7. A drain that backs up again and again has a reason: grease, roots, or a sagging line. A camera inspection finds it, and drain cleaning clears it.

We also handle:

• Faucets, toilets, and shower valves
• Main and fixture shut-off valves, hose bibs
• Garbage disposals and appliance hookups
