We completed a plumbing project for a homeowner in Arlington, helping improve the home’s irrigation system with a dedicated water shutoff. After evaluating the existing plumbing, our technician tied into the main water line and installed a new tee to supply a 1-inch brass gate valve specifically for the irrigation system. This upgrade provides a convenient way to isolate the irrigation line whenever maintenance or plumbing repairs are needed.
Using quality materials, including 1-inch PEX fittings and a brass gate valve, the new shutoff was professionally installed and thoroughly tested. Once the installation was complete, our technician checked the system for leaks and confirmed that everything was operating properly. No leaks were observed, and the home’s water pressure was measured at 50 PSI, while the gate valve pressure tested at 60 PSI.
During the visit, our technician also inspected the home’s tank water heater, which had been installed in 2019. Because the maintenance history was unknown, we recommended performing a water heater flush to help remove built-up sediment and promote efficient operation. The homeowner approved the service, and after the flush was completed, the water heater was tested and confirmed to be working as intended.
At Bee’s Plumbing, we believe in helping homeowners protect their plumbing systems with both quality installations and preventative maintenance. This project not only added a reliable irrigation shutoff but also helped extend the life of the home’s water heater through routine service. Our installation is backed by Bee’s one-year parts and labor warranty on the work we provide and install, while existing plumbing outside the scope of the repair is not covered.
