• Repipe your water lines - If you have old galvanized water pipes, or extensive corrosion on your water lines, additional plumbing might be needed. Your installer will give you the price before beginning the work.
• Replace the water shut-off - If your old valve is leaking or won't stop the flow of water, it must be replaced.
• Replace your circuit breaker - if your circuit breaker is not operable or the wrong size, it must be replaced.
• Additional Wiring - if more than 6' of wire is needed the installer will give you a quote.
• Expansion Tank – If the water pressure in your home is over 75 PSIG or you have a pressure reducing valve, an expansion tank must be installed.
• Pressure Reducing Valve – If you have a pressure reducing valve and your pressure is still over 150 PSIG, it needs to be replaced!
• Saturday installation.

Please remember – we have to meet the local plumbing codes and provide you and your family with a safe installation. Short cuts will not be taken when your personal safety is at risk!

We cannot be responsible for valves that begin leaking if we used the valve in the manner in which it was intended.
