SERVING Tempe'S HOMES AND BUSINESSES
Tempe is one of the most distinctive cities in the East Valley — home to Arizona State University, the Mill Avenue district, Tempe Town Lake, and a mix of historic neighborhoods like Maple-Ash, Mitchell Park, and Clark Park alongside newer residential development. Tempe's older housing stock creates plumbing and HVAC service needs that look very different from the newer master-planned communities elsewhere in the East Valley.
A&K Plumbing, Mechanical and HVAC works across that full range, from historic homes near downtown Tempe to South Tempe neighborhoods, multifamily properties, and local commercial businesses across the city. The focus is the same in every job: practical service, clear communication, and work that holds up over time.

Plumbing FAQs
-
A&K provides a wide range of plumbing services in Tempe, including water heaters, tankless water heaters, reverse osmosis systems, water filtration, water softeners, leak repair, repiping, slab leak repair, drain cleaning, hydro jetting, sewer-related repairs, gas lines, remodel plumbing, and fixture replacement. Tempe's older housing stock means repiping, slab leak repair, and drain line issues come up more often here than in newer East Valley communities.
-
Tempe's water averages around 15 grains per gallon, which qualifies as hard water. Over time, the calcium and magnesium minerals in hard water can cause scale buildup in pipes, water heaters, fixtures, and appliances. That is why water softeners, reverse osmosis systems, and whole-house filtration systems are popular upgrades for Tempe homeowners.
-
Yes. A&K installs reverse osmosis drinking water systems, water softeners, water conditioning systems, and whole-house filtration for Tempe homeowners. These systems help protect plumbing and appliances from mineral buildup and improve the taste and quality of your drinking water.
-
Yes. Tempe has some of the oldest residential housing stock in the East Valley, particularly in neighborhoods like Maple-Ash and Mitchell Park.

-
Yes. A&K handles water heater services in Tempe, including water heater repair, water heater replacement, gas water heaters, electric water heaters, and tankless water heater installation. Because of Tempe's hard water, water heaters in the area often experience faster sediment buildup, which can shorten lifespan and affect performance.
-
Yes. A&K offers hydro jetting and drain cleaning for Tempe homes and businesses. Older drain lines, root intrusion, and recurring clogs are common in Tempe's established neighborhoods, and hydro jetting can clear lines thoroughly without the limitations of basic snaking.
-
Yes. Tempe has some of the oldest housing stock in the East Valley, and homes in neighborhoods like Maple-Ash and Mitchell Park often still have original galvanized or cast iron piping.
