Why Huntington Hills Homeowners Choose FlameTech Plumbing
Huntington Hills homes range from the original 1970s builds to newer infill developments, and each era comes with its own plumbing personality. The older homes often have original cast iron drain lines that are finally giving up, while the 1990s builds are dealing with Poly-B piping issues.

Local Huntington Hills & NW Calgary Expertise
Huntington Hills' mix of housing styles means we never know exactly what we'll find until we open up the walls, but that's what keeps the job interesting. Our Calgary plumbers work and live in the NW.
1970s Bungalows
These often have original galvanized steel supply lines that are ready for replacement after 50 years in Calgary's hard water.
1990s Two-Story Builds
The 1990s boom homes are dealing with aging water heaters and failing bathroom fixtures.
Built for Chinooks
Alberta's brutal winters and rapid temperature swings during chinooks are hard on plumbing. We design our repairs to handle everything from -40°C cold snaps to sudden thaws.
Frequently Asked Questions
How long do hot water tanks last in Huntington Hills homes?
With Calgary's hard water, most hot water tanks last 8-10 years before they start showing signs of failure. The mineral buildup is particularly hard on the heating elements and tank walls. If your water heater is over 8 years old and making rumbling noises, it's time to start planning for replacement.
Why do my drains keep backing up in my older Huntington Hills home?
Most of the original homes in Huntington Hills have cast iron drain lines that are now 40-50 years old. These pipes develop rough interiors as they corrode, which catches debris and leads to frequent clogs. The mature trees in the area also contribute to root intrusion in the main sewer lines.
Should I be worried about Poly-B piping in my 1990s Huntington Hills home?
Yes, Poly-B piping typically starts failing after 20-25 years, and many Huntington Hills homes built in the 1990s are right in that failure zone. The connections are usually the first to go, often behind walls where you can't see them. We recommend having Poly-B systems inspected annually once they hit 20 years old.
Do you handle plumbing emergencies in Huntington Hills?
Yes — burst pipes, sewer backups, no hot water. Call 587-834-3668 and we'll tell you honestly when we can get there. If water is running, shut off the main valve first.
What's the best way to prevent frozen pipes during chinooks?
The rapid temperature swings during chinooks can actually be worse for pipes than steady cold weather. Keep your home heated to at least 15°C, especially in basements and crawl spaces. Open cabinet doors under sinks to let warm air circulate around pipes, and if you're going away during winter, leave taps dripping slightly to keep water moving.
Simple, honest, on your schedule.
