Wright Plumbing & Heating | Plumbing Services in Colorado Springs, CO 80903

Our local plumbing inspection includes a thorough check of all outdoor faucets (hose bibs) and their interior shut-off valves. We identify any that lack proper insulation or are susceptible to freezing due to our altitude's colder temperatures. By finding and addressing these weak points before winter, we can install frost-free hose bibs or recommend insulating techniques to prevent freezing and costly pipe damage.

In Colorado Springs, the lower atmospheric pressure can affect water pressure dynamics in your pipes, potentially leading to stress on joints, valves, and appliances. During our inspection, we test your home's water pressure and look for signs of wear or leaks exacerbated by these constant fluctuations. We then make precise adjustments or repairs to stabilize your system, protecting it from the unique strain of living at altitude.

We focus on local risk factors. This includes checking for proper pipe insulation in unheated areas like crawl spaces, ensuring water heaters are set correctly for efficiency at altitude, examining expansion tanks for pressure balance, and verifying that all outdoor faucets are winter-ready. Our goal is to give you a clear, actionable report on your system's health specific to the Pikes Peak region.
