Plumbing in Sacramento: what to know
Sacramento sits at the meeting of two rivers behind levees, and its many mature street trees push roots into older clay sewer laterals.
Freezing weather is rare in Sacramento, so the main plumbing stresses are heat, water chemistry and ground movement rather than frozen pipes.
Much of Sacramento has hard water. Scale builds up in water heaters and fixtures over time, which shows up as popping noises in the tank, weak shower flow and crusty aerators.
Sacramento County and California housing: Large stocks of post-war slab and raised-foundation homes, many with galvanized or original copper lines and clay or Orangeburg sewer laterals.
