Local plumbing issues in Indianapolis

01

Sump pumps

Spring rain and high groundwater keep sump pumps busy.

02

Frozen pipes

Cold snaps freeze pipes near exterior walls.

03

Older laterals

Clay laterals in older neighborhoods collect roots.

04

DigIndy tunnels

Citizens Energy Group's DigIndy tunnel system reduces combined sewer overflows, but older neighborhoods can still see backups in big storms.

05

White River flooding

Low-lying areas near the White River and Fall Creek can flood in heavy rain.

06

Lead service lines

Older Indianapolis homes may still have lead service lines being identified and replaced.

07

Freeze-thaw cycles

Frequent winter freeze-thaw cycles crack exposed pipes and outdoor faucets.

08

Sump pump discharge

Sump pump discharge lines that freeze in winter can stop a pump from emptying the pit. A freeze-protection fitting near the house lets water escape if the line ices up farther out.
