Orange Township, in southern Delaware County, was organized in 1816 and was once an unbroken forest between Alum Creek and the Olentangy River.

Today it's one of the fastest-growing parts of central Ohio, home to Lewis Center, Evans Farm, the Polaris area and Olentangy schools, with more than 37,000 residents. Benjamin Franklin Plumbing of Delaware is based just up the road in Delaware.

The Orange Township Plumbing Landscape

The township went from about 3,800 residents in 1990 to more than 37,000 today, and nearly all of that housing is in good shape and fairly new. Most homes were built in the 1990s, 2000s and 2010s, with newer areas like Evans Farm still being built. The calls we see most are first-generation equipment wearing out, including water heaters, sump pumps, pressure-reducing valves and fixtures, plus hard-water scale and the occasional backed-up downspout line.

The township lists Del-Co Water for water and the Delaware County Regional Sewer District for sewer, though providers can differ by address in the parts of the Polaris area that sit in Columbus or Westerville. Del-Co water is moderately hard, about 7 to 8 grains per gallon. The township's soil is glacial till that is commonly clay loam, so water drains slowly, and sump pumps and clear downspouts matter.

Orange Township Local Insight

Orange Township calls tend to repeat. Water heaters and sump pumps near the end of their service life. High water pressure wearing out fixtures and valves. Hard-water scale. That's why our techs test your water pressure and check the age of your water heater and sump pump on every visit. You get time to plan a replacement instead of scrambling when something quits. Our trucks are stocked, and most calls are fixed on the first visit.

Seasonal Plumbing in Orange Township

Before the first hard freeze, disconnect your garden hoses, shut off and drain the outdoor faucets, and insulate any pipes in unheated spaces. Test the sump pump and its battery backup before the spring rain and snowmelt. Flush the water heater once a year to clear sediment and scale. If water pools near the foundation after a storm, have the buried downspouts checked.

Robert Whitten

I needed my 12-year-old water heater replaced soon and requested seven estimates. Two gave a verbal quote over the phone without seeing the job. I was not sure what I was getting or if they would add additional charges after they got the job. One was going to bring a water heater with them to replace it during the estimate process. One gave written quote that stated a price and description of “replace 50 gal water heater”. There were no details on the work to be completed. Benjiman Franklin Plumping’s estimate was the most complete on the work to be performed. Davy noticed issues with the current installation that was not to code that others missed. He spent the time explaining and answering my questions so I could understand what and why items were being done. Davy was very professional, knowledgeable, and friendly. Although they were not the cheapest or the most expensive, they included everything to replace the water heater and bring in up to code within the estimate, with this I gave them the job. The installation was scheduled for the next day, Davy and Wilson arrived on time. The two worked well as a team completing the job beyond my expectations and to my satisfaction. The finished job looked so much better than the original installation. I am sure they are proud to be associated with their work. They cleaned up as they went so no mess was left behind. Job well done. Thanks Davy and Wilson

Brandon helped bring the pressure of our water down because it was way too high and added a filter to our ice maker so we don’t have so many calcifications in our ice! Brandon did a good job and was very nice. He cleaned up after himself and was always friendly. He was very knowledgeable and answered all the questions I had!

I have known the owner John for 15 years. He is very knowledgable about plumbing and can explain plumbing systems so well. He has given me great ideas and options when I am working on my house and I value his opinions and advice. Recently, I had a plumbing issue under the house and John took care of it. I am very happy with his work.

Daniel Moise

I’m gald to say that Benjamin Franklin in Palm Desert helped me install my water heater that failed. Luis and Hugo were very professional and kept the work area cleaned at all times even during the installation process. I highly recommend them for any plumbing needs in Coachella valley.

Frequently Asked Questions

Which areas does Orange Township include?

Lewis Center is the main community, and the township also covers Evans Farm, the Alum Creek Lake shoreline and part of the Polaris area. We serve all of it.

How long does a water heater last in an Orange Township home?

Most tank water heaters last 8 to 12 years, and hard water can shorten that. A lot of Orange Township homes built in the 1990s and 2000s are already on their second water heater. If yours is past 10 years old, rusting at the base or popping as it heats, have us look at it before it fails.

Is the water hard in Orange Township?

Del-Co Water says its water is about 7 to 8 grains per gallon, which is moderately hard. That leaves scale in water heaters and fixtures over time, and a softener helps. We can test your water and tell you if one makes sense.

How do I keep my basement dry?

Make sure your sump pump works, add a battery backup, and check that your downspouts carry water well away from the house. In clay soil, clogged or collapsed underground downspout lines are a common cause of wet basements.

Do you work on condos and townhomes?

Yes. We repair shutoff valves, supply lines, water heaters, faucets and drains in attached homes, and we can coordinate with your HOA or property manager when needed.
