Replacing a water heater in Lindon.
Lindon charges a flat $85 to permit a water heater replacement or installation (current fee schedule). If your home is on a closed water system, Public Works wants a thermal expansion tank alongside the water heater's T&P valve, and prefers that to a purge valve. Rocky Mountain Power and Enbridge Gas are the utilities.

LOCAL CONDITIONS
What’s different in Lindon.
Closed systems need an expansion tank
Lindon puts a backflow preventer (dual check valve) on every new water service, which makes it a closed system. The city says every water heater needs a T&P valve, and closed systems also need a thermal expansion tank or a relief purge valve. It prefers the tank. Keeping these devices working is the homeowner's job.
