Local risks: Mapleton and Utah County

The risks in Mapleton in Utah County are shaped by Utah's climate and housing. Utah's Wasatch Front homes commonly have finished basements that take on water during spring snowmelt and from failed water heaters and supply lines, while winter freezes burst pipes and summer brings wildfire smoke and flash floods in canyon country. Problems tend to peak during spring snowmelt and winter, but plumbing failures and appliance leaks happen in every month of the year.

Typical emergencies in the area:

• Spring snowmelt that saturates the soil and seeps into basements and foundations
• Foundation movement in expansive clay soils that cracks slabs and stresses buried plumbing
• Water heater tank failures that release 40 to 80 gallons at once
• Split supply lines that only start leaking once a hard freeze thaws
• Plumbing connections and water heaters shaken loose by seismic movement
• Fire-suppression water after a kitchen or electrical fire
• Furnace malfunctions at the start of heating season
• Wildfire smoke, ash and soot infiltration, and structure fires at the wildland edge
• Bathroom fans venting into cold attics
• Meltwater seepage into foundations each spring

First steps for Mapleton property owners

A few actions in the first minutes limit the damage and protect your claim:

• Photograph and video the damage before moving anything
• Do not run the HVAC system if ducts or the air handler got wet, and do not use household fans on sewage or flood water
• Shut off the main water valve if the source is a plumbing failure, and turn off power to the affected area if water is near outlets or appliances
• After a fire, wait for the fire department to release the property and do not wipe soot with water, which smears it into surfaces
• Stay out of standing water that could be electrically charged or contaminated with sewage
• If you see or smell mold, avoid disturbing it and keep the area closed off until it is assessed

Building types, timing and seasonal risk

Regardless of the age of a building, water finds the same weak points: supply connections, roof penetrations, window flashing and anywhere two materials meet.

The coldest stretches of winter produce a surge in frozen and burst pipe calls, and the spring thaw brings the groundwater problems that follow. Home fires peak in winter, when space heaters, fireplaces and furnaces are running and holiday cooking and decorating add risk. Winter condensation on windows and in attics, followed by spring moisture in basements and crawlspaces, gives mold two seasons to get started.
