Trusted Plumbing in Highland
Serving Highland · Utah County, Utah
Highland homes are larger and more complex than the Utah County average. Most of the housing stock sits on half-acre or larger lots in developments from the 1990s through present, and we routinely service homes with two or three water heaters, multiple bathrooms on different zones, outdoor kitchens, pool equipment, and large water softener systems. The city sits on the bench between American Fork and Alpine, which means elevation-driven pressure variation — some Highland zones get city pressure at 90+ PSI while neighboring streets are closer to 70. PRVs and expansion tanks are heavily used here. Water comes in hard and heavy with minerals, so properly sized softeners matter more than they do in lower-valley cities. The larger homes with more fixtures also mean a softener sized for a family of four in Orem is undersized for a family of four in Highland. We handle a lot of dual water heater setups (often a tank for the main house and a tankless for an in-law suite or basement), pool equipment plumbing, and sprinkler backflow preventer work.
Common Plumbing Calls in Highland

Highland Plumbing FAQ
Questions we actually hear from Highland homeowners.
Can you service a home with multiple water heaters in Highland?
Yes, and we do it often. Many Highland homes run two 50-gallon tanks or a tank plus a tankless for a detached space. We service, repair, and replace all configurations, and when one unit fails we can usually improve the overall setup — for example, re-piping so both heaters share demand more evenly, or converting to a single high-capacity tankless if your gas line can support the BTU load. We size the solution around your actual fixture count and family size.
What size water softener does a large Highland home need?
For a 5,000-plus square foot home in Highland with Highland water quality, 64,000 to 80,000 grains is usually the right target. Anything smaller regenerates too often, wastes salt and water, and wears out its resin bed in four to six years. We size based on water hardness (tested at your home, not estimated), number of bathrooms, and peak demand — someone running a jetted tub while the dishwasher and washer are both going needs very different capacity than a smaller household.
Do you install and service sprinkler backflow preventers in Highland?
Yes. Utah code requires a backflow preventer on any irrigation system tied to culinary water, and the city requires annual testing by a licensed tester. We install double check valve assemblies and pressure vacuum breakers, perform annual certification, and repair failed units. If your irrigation system ties into the city culinary line without a backflow preventer, you are in violation and we can get you to compliance the same day.
