Snow and homes in Provo & Orem
Provo and Orem mix student rentals, older single-family neighborhoods and east-bench homes near the mountains. Bench neighborhoods like Edgemont and the Provo foothills see more snow and steeper approaches.
Cost considerations

Permits
Provo City and Orem City each run their own building/permit offices. Start with the local government site. Electric systems need a properly sized dedicated circuit, and hydronic systems involve boiler/plumbing work, so expect permitting in most cases — confirm with your jurisdiction. We confirm permit requirements for your address as part of planning.
