Why this call
What is going wrong in a Walnut house?
Walnut houses are later slabs on bigger lots than La Puente, many of them two-story, heater in the garage or a closet. An upper-floor supply does not stay upstairs. It comes through the ceiling of the room below and runs to a wall that looks unrelated. A garage heater on the same plan never touches that ceiling. The call has to separate those two losses or the crew opens the wrong place.
- A downstairs ceiling wet from a bath or laundry above.
- A closet or garage heater that never reached the second floor.
- Two-story tract finishes stained in a line under an upstairs valve.
Say upstairs supply or ground-floor heater. If the ceiling is wet, say which room is above it. That is the opening, not a guess from the stain.
The houses
What gets wet in Walnut?
Walnut is mostly later slab houses on larger lots than La Puente, many of them two-story, with the water heater in the garage or a closet. An upper-floor supply break comes through the ceiling of the room below. A ground-floor leak stays on the slab.
The water
How does water usually get into a Walnut house?
The scheduled call is standing water inside from plumbing. The city sits below the San Jose Hills. Water running off a slope into a downhill room during a storm should be described as outside water.
