Havasu Plumber

[DWC]

Looking for a plumber in Havasu to install a remote shut off valve. PM or reply to the thread works..

Look at you on natural gas

Pro tip:

Once you get that valve swapped, make sure you turn the shut off valve off and back on a few times a year. They get sticky fast.

My father in law owns Mike Price Plumbing, he is a great guy to use. 928-7685900
Im sure there are many good ones in the area as well.

Lately I've been using Van Rooy. That's kind of a small job and probably be hard to avoid the minimum 1 hr labor, but in general I avoid companies with preset pricing for changing different items. For example, my neighbor just paid $78.00 for each of three hose bibs to be replaced. It took all of 10 minutes. $90.00 labor and $10.00 for each hose bib, although high would have still been a much better way to go. BTW he didn't ask me or I would have done that for him.

JDUVA is reasonable

Why do you have 3 inlets?
2 with pressure regulator and one without
The one without you need to shut off water at the meter

right? That’s the most bizarre setup I have ever seen...

looks like a shut off buried in rock below the line without the regulator.
A few things need to be cleaned up on that setup

A few things definitely need to be cleaned up. Overall, the house was pretty much turn-key. Just trying to get everything 100% and on autopilot.

You might want them to change / check the regulators while there cleaning it up. Havasu has bad water and they need to be changed more often then some other areas. I had Carey install the union type regulator on my house like yours, so I could do it myself without having to solder it.

Great advice. Thank you

Shoreline just redid some piping at my house on a service call. Pool guy found the existing shitty PVC work blowing water while I was away. They did good work and very fair price.

I am having them do work inside now, adding a shower to what was a half bath.

If there is a casita I'd guess pre-plumbed for separate metering. The 3rd one is weird for sure

Could the pipe without the regulator be for irrigation?

Many of the houses are plumbed this way so they can shut the water off to the house when they leave but not kill all the plants. Pretty common out here at least.

That’s how my house is plumbed. Just one regulator though.

Home Depot PVC compression repair fittings! The installer found a way to do a worse job than the average unqualified "contractor".

Where do you see compression fittings? I don’t know maybe cause I’m looking on my phone

And paint the freaking gas lines once every few years.

They are also known as repair fittings. No glue needed, they have Buna-N gaskets and threaded compression collars. Look at the tee and the long coupling near the ground.

2 year old Kelco built home that I moved into 8 months ago. Not the only unqualified work put into this place.
