Plumbing, Heating & Air Conditioning in Orem, Utah

A plumbing problem rarely announces exactly what it is. A dripping fixture may be a ten-minute repair, while low pressure, a spiking water bill or drains that back up in more than one room usually points deeper into the system. Parley's works the whole house — supply lines, fixtures, valves, water heaters, drains and the sewer line — so our technicians can trace the actual cause instead of asking you to guess first. Most Orem calls start as plumbing repair: a leak under a sink, a toilet that keeps running, a shutoff that will not hold, a pinhole in a supply line. Others start at the drain, which is where drain cleaning comes in, or at the tank, where water heater services take over. Because Orem water is hard, we also install and service water softeners for homeowners tired of replacing fixtures and cartridges every few years. You can see the full range of Parley's plumbing services if you are not sure which category your problem falls into.

When an Orem summer settles into the valley, an air conditioner that is only slightly off becomes obvious fast. If the system runs but the house keeps warming, the cause could be airflow, a failing capacitor or contactor, a dirty coil, a refrigerant problem in the outdoor unit or simply a thermostat calling incorrectly. We diagnose before we quote, so AC repair starts with finding the failure rather than replacing parts hopefully. When a system is old enough that repairs stop making financial sense, we will walk through air conditioner replacement honestly, including what size and stage of equipment actually fits your home. Most of the emergency calls we take in July trace back to something a spring AC tune-up would have caught. If your comfort problem is really a control problem, thermostats are worth a look, and homes considering all-electric comfort can ask about heat pumps.

Cold mornings in Orem expose whatever the furnace has been hiding. A furnace that will not start, blows cool air, short-cycles, rattles or heats some rooms and not others is telling you something specific, and furnace repair begins with reading those symptoms: ignition, flame sensing, airflow restriction, blower condition, control board or venting. We handle the whole range of home heating service, from a one-part fix to talking through furnace installation when a system is past the point of good money after bad. Homes with radiant or hydronic systems can ask about boilers, and homeowners weighing efficiency upgrades often want to compare a conventional furnace against heat pumps before deciding.

No hot water, hot water that runs out halfway through a shower, popping and rumbling from the tank, or a puddle on the floor near the base — those are the four calls we get most. Sediment and scale from hard Orem water are usually involved, which is why tanks here often age faster than the label suggests. We handle straightforward water heater repair when the fix is a thermocouple, element, valve or thermostat, and honest water heater installation when the tank itself has failed. Households that want endless hot water or want the floor space back can look at tankless water heaters, and pairing any new unit with a water softener is the single best way to protect it.

One slow drain is usually local to that fixture. Two or more slow fixtures, gurgling, or water appearing in a lower drain when you run an upstairs one usually means the main line. That distinction matters, because it determines whether you need professional drain cleaning or a camera inspection and sewer line diagnosis. Established Orem neighborhoods with mature trees see root intrusion; newer builds see grease, wipes and settling. We clear the line first, then show you what the camera sees so the next decision is based on evidence. When a backup cannot wait until morning, an emergency plumber is the right call.
