C-36 licensed, CSLB #568271. Serving Escondido since 1989. Escondido has some of the hardest water in the county — about 15.5 grains per gallon — and we know exactly what it does to your pipes and water heater.
The City of Escondido Water Division's most recent Consumer Confidence Report lists total hardness at 230–280 mg/L, averaging 265 mg/L — about 13.5 to 16.4 grains per gallon. The USGS classifies anything over 180 mg/L as “very hard,” so Escondido sits well into that range. Scale at this level cuts water-heater life short and corrodes fixtures from the inside.

Tank and tankless. At ~15.5 gpg, Escondido water heaters scale fast — we flush, test the anode, and replace before a leak, not after. Bradford White and Rheem stocked.
Older homes with galvanized or polybutylene lines corrode faster in hard water. We repipe in PEX-A — licensed, permitted, inspected. No subcontractors.
Camera inspection to find root intrusion, mineral buildup, or offset joints before they back up. We diagnose and repair — no snake-only service calls.
Hard water is brutal on heaters. We service, descale, and install tank and tankless systems sized to your home and code.
Natural gas and propane lines for appliances, BBQs, and generators. CSLB C-36 licensed for all gas work — permitted and pressure-tested.
We rough in and connect whole-house softeners and RO systems. We don't sell the units — we make sure the plumbing is right.
In hard water, your water heater anode burns out years early. JPS-AP members get an annual water heater service, whole-house inspection, sewer camera check, front-of-line scheduling, and 25 JPSAI questions/day. One plan, no contracts.
