Happy Plumbing

In San Diego, a homeowner contacted Happy Plumbing about a malfunctioning Noritz water heater that was no longer providing consistent hot water. The outdated system was causing ongoing issues with water temperature fluctuations and unreliable operation, leaving the homeowner frustrated and without a dependable hot water supply. After inspecting the existing unit, we recommended replacing the faulty water heater with a more modern and efficient option. Our team installed the Noritz NRC98OD Outdoor Natural Gas Tankless Water Heater, a premium unit designed to deliver on-demand hot water without the inefficiencies of traditional tank systems. The outdoor model allows for a compact, space-saving installation, and the high-efficiency design ensures energy savings while meeting the homeowner’s hot water needs. As part of the upgrade, we also installed a Flow-Tech Home Max system to help reduce scale buildup, improve water quality, and extend the lifespan of the new water heater. This addition ensures optimal performance and decreases maintenance requirements over time. We confirmed that the installation complied with all local building codes and safety standards, including proper venting and gas connections, ensuring the system operates smoothly and safely for years. The new tankless system, combined with the Flow-Tech Home Max, not only resolves the immediate issue of malfunctioning hot water but also provides long-term benefits such as improved efficiency, lower energy consumption, and enhanced reliability.

Happy Plumbing recently finished a full-service plumbing upgrade for a residential customer in El Cajon, CA. The homeowner needed a new water line for their refrigerator’s icemaker, improved water access on the right side of the house, and an inspection of their tankless water heater. During the visit, the customer also asked for a permanent UV water treatment system to eliminate bacteria and ensure clean, safe water.   Our licensed technicians delivered a complete solution — installing a Flow-Tech Home MAX Anti-Scale System, Whole House Carbon CX Filters, a new ¾-inch pressure regulator with hose bib and shutoff, and a tankless condensation neutralizer. We also flushed and descaled the tankless water heater, ran new PEX water lines under the house, and connected new hose bibs for outdoor water access.   This two-day project was finished efficiently and professionally, improving water quality, reliability, and convenience throughout the home. All work is protected by a one-year parts and labor warranty.

Our customer in San Diego recently completed a home re-pipe and required professional plumbing reconnections to finish the job. The project involved reconnecting sink vanities, showers, and toilets, as well as replacing old toilet flanges to ensure a secure, leak-free setup. Happy Plumbing completed the full reconnection service, installing new ABS drains for both his-and-hers sinks in the upstairs bathroom. Each laboratory sink was fitted with a new P-trap and connection to ensure proper drainage and long-lasting durability. Our team also reinstalled the upstairs toilet, replacing the flange and sealing it properly to prevent future leaks or movement. All parts and labor were included, and the completed work comes with our one-year warranty for both parts and labor.

The homeowner observed slow drainage and water pooling in the backyard during watering and rain. Inspection showed that the backyard storm drain was heavily clogged with tree roots, preventing water from reaching the street. The blockage led to ongoing overflow and posed a risk of property damage. Our San Diego plumbing team used a hydrojetter equipped with a root-rat cutting head to clear the storm drain. This powerful equipment enabled us to cut through the dense root intrusion and flush the line clean from the backyard to the street. After the jetting process, we excavated the area drain to locate and safely remove the jetter head. We then carried out the necessary repairs to the drain assembly, ensuring full functionality and long-term reliability. The result was a fully restored storm drain system with proper flow and no remaining root blockage.

In this San Diego home, our client needed the garage gas line rerouted to supply their dryer properly. During the inspection, our plumbers also found the existing water heater to be visibly deteriorated. To prevent future leaks and improve efficiency, the client chose to upgrade to a new Noritz EZTR40NG, offering a longer lifespan, superior gas efficiency, and space savings. Our certified technicians removed and disposed of the old water heater, installed a new gas shut-off valve, and updated the entire system to meet current safety codes. The new tankless system features isolation valves for easy maintenance and includes Happy Plumbing’s 6-year worry-free coverage on parts and labor, along with a 25-year manufacturer warranty. To maintain warranty coverage, Happy Plumbing provides the first annual descale free of charge, with affordable maintenance services available annually thereafter.

In San Diego, a homeowner contacted Happy Plumbing regarding concerns about their water quality and an aging filter system. After assessing the condition of their current setup and discussing long-term water quality goals, the client chose to proceed with our Total Home Protection Package. This included installing the FLOW-TECH MAX Anti-Scale System to address hard water buildup, along with the FLOW-TECH Carbon CX whole-house filtration system for clean, great-tasting water throughout the home. The upgrade provides long-term protection for plumbing, fixtures, and appliances while enhancing overall water quality.
