Las Vegas is unique. Our winter feels short, our spring comes fast, and our plumbing systems see more temperature swings than most cities.

February is the perfect transition month — the final checkpoint before irrigation season, pool reopenings, and peak water usage.

February Must-Dos for Homeowners

1. Check for Slow Leaks

Winter contraction can loosen fittings.
Look for:
– Wet spots
– Mildew smells
– Foundation pooling
– Running toilets

Fixing a 1-drop-per-second leak can save more than 2,000 gallons a year.

2. Test Sewer Lines Before Spring Growth

Tree roots are dormant now — but when soil warms and roots grow, they chase moisture.
Small cracks turn into blockages overnight.

A sewer camera inspection in February gives you a clean bill of health before the growth spurt.

3. Inspect Hose Bibs and Exterior Spigots

Even mild freezes can cause hidden damage.
Check for:
– Cracks
– Drips
– Low pressure when turned on

4. Clear and Prep Drains

Late-winter buildup from holiday cooking is real.
Be proactive before the spring cleaning surge.

5. Make Your Water Work Harder

Winter is prime time to consider:
– Water softeners
– Filtration systems
– System flushes
– Pipe descaling

Hard water residue slows everything down — showers, dishwashers, washing machines.

Why February?

Because once temperatures jump, so does demand.
Fixing problems now:
– Saves time
– Saves money
– Avoids emergencies
– Helps conserve water

Beat the spring rush — schedule a February tune-up today.

Your home deserves a smooth start to the season.
