Local plumbing issues in Cheyenne
High-plains wind and cold
Strong winds and sub-zero nights freeze pipes along exterior walls and in garages.
Altitude and water heaters
At about 6,000 feet, gas water heaters need proper venting and sizing for altitude.
Watering rules
BOPU's summer watering schedules make irrigation leaks worth fixing quickly.
Older homes in The Avenues
Late 1800s and early 1900s homes near downtown often have old cast-iron and clay drains that collect roots from mature trees.
Frozen sprinkler systems
Irrigation systems need to be blown out before winter, and backflow devices protected from freezing.
Water heater replacements
Many mid-century Cheyenne homes are on their third or fourth water heater, often in a basement utility room sharing a flue with the furnace. Replacement checks that venting and combustion air meet code at altitude.
