Cooling System Maintenance in Española• Same-Day Service Available

For a typical older home in downtown Española—maybe 1,200 to 1,500 square feet with a crawl space—you're looking at $6,000 to $10,000 to repipe the whole house, depending on access and how complex the layout is. That includes removing old galvanized pipes and running new PEX lines to all fixtures. Mobile homes can sometimes be less because they're smaller, though access is tighter. We can also do partial repiping if budget is tight—replace the worst sections first and plan to do the rest later. Honest assessment: if your pipes are 60-plus years old and you're seeing rust in the water or weak pressure, it's probably time. We'll give you options and let you decide what works for your situation.

That's iron in your well water, and it's common in the Española valley because of the geology. You need an iron filter system, which removes the iron before it can oxidize and stain. A decent whole-house iron filter runs $1,200 to $2,500 installed depending on your water flow rate and iron concentration. If you also have hardness issues—and most well water here does—you might want to combine an iron filter with a water softener. The iron has to be filtered before the softener or it'll foul the softener resin. We can test your water and design a treatment system that handles whatever's in there. The investment pays off quickly in not replacing stained fixtures and not scrubbing orange off everything.

A few possible causes, all common in Española. If you have well water, your pressure tank might be too small or the well pump might be undersized for household demand. If you have city water, galvanized pipes could be restricting flow from mineral buildup and corrosion. Older homes sometimes have half-inch supply lines that were adequate for 1960s usage but not for modern demands with multiple bathrooms. We'd need to check your system—test pressure at the inlet, look at pipe sizes, see if it's a supply issue or an internal restriction. Often the answer is either repiping to larger diameter lines or, for well systems, upgrading the pressure tank.
