What the homes in 75205 mean for plumbing
Highland Park and University Park are separate municipalities with their own water utilities and their own permit offices, so the rules for a water heater swap or a repipe depend on which side of the line the house is on. Check with the right town before work that needs a permit.
Large modern homes here often run two or three water heaters, a recirculation loop, gas lines to outdoor kitchens and big irrigation systems with backflow devices. Older homes that have not been rebuilt can still have cast-iron drains and clay sewer laterals under mature trees, which is a classic recipe for root intrusion.
