Frequently Asked Questions

How do water pressure regulators work?

Our plumbing techs begin water conservation home makeovers by thoroughly inspecting your home to spot areas where water is being wasted. The first place to look most of the time is your home’s water main. Oftentimes, water pressure controlled by the water main is just too high for day-to-day household requirements, which means too much water is flowing through the pipes for no reason.

In order to bring the pounds-per-square-inch (PSI) of your home’s water pressure down to a normal, useful level, we can install a water pressure regulator. This plumbing device monitors the incoming water pressure from the city or utility main and actively regulates it to the chosen amount, typically about 55 PSI.

In a given year, you can save thousands of gallons of water by lowering the PSI by only a slight amount, which translates directly to big savings. Lowering the PSI levels of the water pressure coming into your home also adds to the lifespan of your plumbing system and your appliances, meaning fewer repairs and replacements throughout the years.

How do I choose a low-flow showerhead?

Your showerheads are the next likely candidates for improvement in your home’s water conservation makeover. Our San Diego plumbing specialists come to many clients’ homes and discover they use showerheads that are not Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) rated for water conservation or effectiveness.

Look for the WaterSense label and talk to us about the many different styles and options to get one of these low-flow showerheads in your shower, which reduces the gallons-per-minute usage down to two or fewer. On average, you can save four gallons of water per shower without sacrificing cleanliness.

Why should I get a low-flow toilet?

Up-to-date low-flow toilets use 1.28 gallons per flush cycle, whereas older model low-flow toilets use 1.6 gallons per flush or more. If you switch out the toilets in your home to upgraded low-flow models, you will reduce water use per flush by about 20% to 30%.

This savings equates to more than 1,000 gallons of water saved monthly, or about 13,000 gallons per year. If we upgrade your toilets from even older 3.5 gallons per flush toilets, your flush water reduction will be an incredible 70%.
