The homeowner had already reached out to several other plumbers, but either they couldn’t pin down the source of the leak or the conversation quickly turned into a sales pitch without real answers. After a lot of frustration, they decided to dig a little deeper and that’s how they found us.I won’t lie, this one was tricky. The leak was extremely intermittent, which is always the hardest kind to track down. Over the course of about three hours, we worked through the house using thermal imaging, scoping inside walls, and a lot of patience. Eventually, we were able to confirm the leak was coming directly from the old water heater tank itself. The homeowner was relieved that someone finally took the time to actually find the problem instead of guessing.Once the source was confirmed, they decided to move forward with a replacement. We installed a new Bradford White 50-gallon water heater, a solid upgrade from what was there before. The installation was brought fully up to current code with a new expansion tank and a drain pan, so if there’s ever an issue down the road, it’ll be visible right away instead of hiding and causing damage.Everything turned out great, and the homeowner now has reliable hot water and peace of mind knowing the issue was properly diagnosed and fixed. This is exactly why taking the time to do things the right way matters.\n\nA CLOSER LOOK / 06\n\n[![Code-compliant seismic strapping on a new water heater in West Valley City.]()]()\n\nCode-compliant seismic strapping on a new water heater in West Valley City.\n\n MOUNTAIN MAN PLUMBING\n\nEXPLORE THE SERVICE [Water Heater Installation ↗]()[Plumbing in West Valley City ↗]()\n\nMOUNTAIN MAN PLUMBING\n\n## Let’s take a look *at your place.*\n\nCall or text us about the work you need.\n\n- [Call (385) 766-8935 ↗]()\n\n- [Book a visit ↗]()\n\n- [Text us a photo ↗]()\n\nMORE FROM THE JOB\n\n## Keep looking.\n\n[All past work ↗]()\n\n![State X3 Tankless Water Heater West Jordan]() West Jordan\n\n### [Tankless Water Heater West Jordan]()\n\n ↗\n\nNew Bradford White tank water heater strapped in a Salt Lake City condo mechanical room with relief piping and expansion tank nearby.
