Water pressure testing and PRV checks; code requires pressure reduction above 80 psi
Leak detection at fixtures, supply lines, shutoffs, and appliances (including slab-leak screening)
Toilet dye tests for silent leaks (flappers/flush valves)
Water heater safety/efficiency check: T&P valve, venting, anode/sediment review, temp setting guidance (typ. 120°F)

Serving Palm Bay & Surrounding Communities

We proudly serve these cities, including:

What’s included in your inspection?

Water pressure test (and PRV review), whole-home leak check, fixture/toilet testing (including dye tests), water heater safety/efficiency review, drain/sewer diagnostics as needed, and a written, prioritized report.

Why is water pressure such a big deal?

Pressure that’s too high strains valves, hoses, and appliances. Florida code requires a pressure-reducing valve if static pressure exceeds 80 psi.

What temperature should my water heater be set to?

The U.S. DOE recommends around 120°F for most homes to balance safety, comfort, and energy savings.
