New Jersey Plumbing Company Purchases & Renovates Celebrity’s Former Home with Range of Watts Solutions

What the Client Needed

When a New Jersey plumbing company purchased the former home of a Major League Baseball Hall of Famer, they faced a challenge common to high-value real estate: protecting the property from plumbing failures that could cause costly damage. In a home of this scale and profile, even a small leak or pressure surge could jeopardize its long-term value. The company needed reliable, proven solutions that could prevent water damage, safeguard the potable water supply, and deliver dependable performance for years to come.

Solution

With decades of experience installing Watts products, the company trusted Watts to deliver a comprehensive solution that would address the home’s most pressing plumbing risks. To guard against hidden leaks, they installed a Leak Defense whole-home leak detection system that provides 24/7 monitoring and rapid response. Stable and consistent water pressure was achieved with Watts LF25AUB pressure reducing valves, protecting fixtures and extending the life of the system. On the fire line, an Ames 2000B backflow preventer was installed to keep contaminants out of the potable water supply. Finally, corrosion-resistant ball valves were added throughout the system, giving the company reliable shutoff capabilities for easier maintenance and long-term durability. Together, these upgrades formed an integrated solution that strengthened plumbing reliability and provided peace of mind for the future.

Results

The upgraded system transformed the property’s plumbing into a reliable, resilient infrastructure built to protect a luxury investment. With advanced leak detection, stable water pressure, and secure backflow protection in place, the company successfully eliminated key risks associated with plumbing failures. These improvements significantly increased the value of the property and opened the door for a variety of possibilities, from a high-end private residence to an event venue.
