Hawthorne, CA was incorporated in 1922. Since then the housing and commercial buildings exploded to what we see today. The age of the residential home and commercial / industrial buildings dictate that serious upgrading and remodeling decisions need to be made
After many earthquakes and typical wear and tear, it is important for you to choose the best and most efficient way to keep your home or commercial / industrial building running smoothly. Choosing the most qualified plumbing contractor that can put the right tool and team towards your project is extremely important.
As of 2014 a new California law(SB 407) requires owners of any single family home in Hawthorne that is at least 20 years old and is adding square footage or are making permanent improvements to their home MUST ALSO install brand new water-conserving plumbing fixtures throughout the entire house.

Common questions about your Hawthorne, CA Plumbing
Air Conditioning
Hawthorne
Question:
What does a BTU really mean?
The Bob & Marc Answer:
A ton of cooling is now defined as delivering 12,000 BTU/hour of cooling. BTU is short for British Thermal Unit (and is a unit that the British do not use) The BTU is a unit of heating - or in this case, cooling - energy. It’s more important, however, to keep in perspective that a window air conditioner is usually less than one ton. A small home central air conditioner would be about two tons and a large one about five tons.
Water Heaters
Hawthorne
Question:
How can I keep my what heater running longer?
The Bob & Marc Answer:
One way is to turn the power off on the unit. Connect a hose to water heater. Drain the water out. Open and close the inlet valve a few time to let that stuff settled inside come out.
Toilets
Hawthorne
Question:
What can I do to reduce loss with a toilet?
The Bob & Marc Answer:
From too much water flow at flush to handle keeps coming loose or doesn't stop trying to fill the tank to floor leaks under the toilet, unless you have some experience, it is best to have an experienced reputable plumber fix your toilet. This alone will save you money beyond the actual repair itself.
Dishwashers
Hawthorne
Question:
My dishwasher doesn't drain.
The Bob & Marc Answer:
Some water should be left behind after each wash. This is a normal thing. But, if you have an unreasonable amount of water left in the unit after a wash, check the drain / over flow outlet that is usual-ally next to your kitchen faucet. It might be clogged.
Faucets
Hawthorne
Question:
I cannot get hot water to come out of the faucet
The Bob & Marc Answer:
Whether it's a sink or shower faucet, it's probably something that is happening inside the faucet that is worn. Most newer faucets can be repaired by replacing the cartridge inside. Even though you can go on line and try to order the correct parts, it's confusing to most do it yourselfers. Have your plumber fix it for you as this is typically a very inexpensive service call.
Clean Outs
Hawthorne
Question:
Q. Where are my clean-outs located?
The Bob & Marc Answer:
They can be located inside the house but are more often on the exterior of the house. You will need to carefully look at all sides to the house to find the sewer clean out because there could be more than one and they can be obscured by landscaping.
