Plumbing Checks After A Storm
An EF2 tornado struck Iona on January 16, 2022, and Hurricane Ian struck the region in September 2022. Flood risk differs from one address to the next, so check the FEMA flood map for your property rather than relying on the name of a neighborhood.
General plumbing note: after a storm, check for leaks at the main shutoff and at fixtures, look for wet drywall or a rising water bill, and confirm the water heater is working. Irrigation connections can also have backflow assemblies that utilities want tested on a schedule. Ask your water provider what applies to you.
Plumbing work is governed by the Florida Building Code, Plumbing, which is based on the International Plumbing Code (IPC), and many jobs can require a permit. Iona is unincorporated, so permits there usually go through Lee County rather than the City of Fort Myers.
