Homes in Sandy: what we see

Sandy boomed from the 1970s through the 1990s, with an older historic district near State Street that dates to the mining and railroad era and bench neighborhoods climbing toward Little Cottonwood Canyon.

A large share of Sandy homes still run original or first-replacement HVAC equipment, and the east bench sees higher water pressure and colder temperatures than the valley floor.

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 Sandy

Water heater, furnace, air conditioner, gas line and sewer work in Sandy generally requires a permit from the Sandy building department. We pull the permit and schedule the inspection as part of the job.
