Frequently Asked Questions — Colorado Springs and Pueblo Plumbing
Who offers emergency plumbing in Colorado Springs and Pueblo?
LocalPlumber.us connects you with vetted, insured local plumbers around the clock. Shut off the main valve if water is flowing, call, and give your ZIP code when prompted.
Where does Colorado Springs’s water come from?
A blend of local mountain supply and water piped from the Colorado River and Arkansas basins, treated by Colorado Springs Utilities.
Is there PFAS in Fountain water?
PFAS reached groundwater near Peterson Space Force Base, and the city and neighboring districts have shut or treated affected wells. Read your provider’s latest report.
Is water in this area hard?
It depends on your provider. Mountain snowmelt supplies are soft, while river, well and some Front Range supplies are harder and leave scale in heaters. Flush tank heaters yearly and read your provider’s water quality report.
Can Colorado clay soil damage my plumbing?
Yes. Expansive clay swells when wet and shrinks when dry, which can shift slabs and stress buried lines. A sudden dip in a yard near a line deserves a plumber’s test.
How do I protect pipes in a Colorado cold snap?
Disconnect hoses, drain outdoor spigots, insulate pipes in garages and crawlspaces, open cabinet doors on the coldest nights and know where the main shutoff is.
