Homes in West Valley City: what we see

West Valley City, Utah’s second-largest city, incorporated in 1980 from the communities of Granger, Hunter and Chesterfield. Most homes date from the 1960s through the 1990s.

We see a lot of original-era furnaces, swamp coolers being converted to central air, and water heaters past their expected life.

Salt Lake County climate and water

The Salt Lake Valley floor sits around 4,300 feet, with bench neighborhoods higher. Summers are hot and dry, winters are cold, and winter inversions trap fine particulate pollution in the valley for days at a time. Summer brings ozone and wildfire smoke. Good filtration matters here in both seasons.

Salt Lake County water is generally hard to very hard, and it varies by provider and by season depending on whether your water comes from mountain streams or wells. Your provider’s annual water quality report lists the hardness for your system. More in our guide: how hard is Utah water.

Permits in West Valley City
