Plumbing in Florida: what's different

Most of the state draws from limestone aquifers, so water is generally hard and softeners are common.
Slab-on-grade construction, high water tables and hurricane flooding shape plumbing work, from slab leaks to sewer backups.
Homes built in the late 1970s through the mid-1990s may have polybutylene supply lines, which many insurers ask about.

Licensing: Florida's Department of Business and Professional Regulation (DBPR) licenses plumbing contractors through the Construction Industry Licensing Board; check any license on the DBPR site.
Winters: Freezes are rare.
Water hardness: Generally hard. Check your utility's annual water quality report for your system.
Home heating: 5% utility gas, 91% electric (Census ACS).

Florida plumbing FAQ

How do I check a plumber's license in Florida?

Florida's Department of Business and Professional Regulation (DBPR) licenses plumbing contractors through the Construction Industry Licensing Board; check any license on the DBPR site.

Do pipes freeze in Florida?

Rarely. Outdoor backflow assemblies, pool equipment and exposed lines are the usual casualties on the few nights that drop below freezing.

Is Florida water hard?

Generally hard, based on national hardness mapping, but it varies by utility and by well. Your water provider's annual water quality report lists the hardness for your system, and a plumber can test well water.

How old are homes in Florida?

Census estimates for Florida put 10% of homes as built before 1960, 25% from 1960 to 1979, 35% from 1980 to 1999 and 30% in 2000 or later. Older homes are more likely to have galvanized supply pipe and cast iron or clay sewer lines.
