The Name Bergheim is German for home in the hills, a name postmaster Andreas Engel gave it in 1901.

> Well and Septic Country

## What Plumbers in Bergheim Work On

> Plumbers in Bergheim work on well and septic plumbing, because Bergheim is not an incorporated city and has no city water or sewer. A house here usually pumps from its own well and drains to its own septic system, and hard Hill Country well water leaves scale in heaters like the one in this picture. Bergheim Plumbing's shop is 1.7 miles east on Highway 46, the closest town on our map.

> That short drive changes how a call goes. Tell us the road, whether the house has a softener and where the well shutoff is, and we bring the right parts. A pressure tank that will not hold is a two-minute drive for us, not an hour.
