Your Home’s Plumbing Should Be Made With The Most Efficient Copper Piping Available
Is your home more than 20 years old? In Southern California, the answer is generally “yes” as the grid was built long ago. Barring some razed properties that built anew atop of the old. Most Southern California homes are asked to endure only moderate weather conditions but the chance the earth will shake uncontrollably at any given time is a real possibility here.
Your home’s structural integrity can be compromised in even the smallest of tremors. It only behooves you to make sure your home’s plumbing is made with the most efficient copper piping available.
What are the advantages of copper piping?
Any current dwelling being built is going to employ the use of copper piping. The reason being is it is resistant to nearly all harsh conditions. Older pipes are made of galvanized metal, which over time corrode and leak and are no longer capable of servicing your home.
Copper pipes have a life span of 80-100 years. That’s a lifetime of worry free water flow.
Call us today for information on copper refitting. We meet both residential and commercial needs. Don’t spring another leak, go copper!

What's New In The World Of Plumbing?
Plumbing is an industry that has remained virtually the same for a hundred years... That is until a few years ago.
The "green movement" has had an impact on an industry that remained stagnant for a century. Now, there are alternative methods to heating your home such as solar power heating and waterless tanks have revolutionized the industry.
In 2007 the EPA (Environmental Protection Agency) released final specifications for toilets certified under its new WaterSense water efficiency program. New WaterSense labeled toilets are 20 percent more efficient and use less than 1.28 gallons per flush. These toilets are not only more efficient than past models, but they are more effective fixtures in general.
Although the WaterSense standard was voluntary, it is now the law in several states, including California and Texas. For that reason, high-efficiency toilets are leading the way in plumbing technology trends and the next frontier for water efficiency is showers.
Plumbing manufacturers are now coming out with new water-efficient shower-heads that allow you to reduce the flow and still have a high-performance shower that allows you to rinse properly.

Copper Repiping Replaces Old Corroded Galvanized Pipes
What is Copper Repiping ?
If your home or building was built prior to 1970 then you probably have out-of-date, corroded, and rusty galvanized water pipes (which are more than likely to break and cause costly water damage in and under your home). Old galvanized water pipes are almost guaranteed to cause a host of problems for home and property owners.
Do you experience low water pressure?
Low water pressure can be caused by rust or corrosion blocking flow in your galvanized pipes.
Do you get rust colored or yellow water?
Discolored water is usually a sign of advanced rust and corrosion. Any sign of discoloration means you should replace your water pipes as soon as possible.
Have you had leaks in your plumbing?
Plumbing leaks are often caused by the corrosion of old galvanized pipes.
Do you ever get scalded in the shower when someone flushes, uses a sink, or turns on the washing machine? Let Jomi Plumbing retrofit your tub or shower with Pressure Balanced Valves.
Do you have galvanized or polybutylene (plastic) pipes?
Galvanized pipes are the grayish silver looking pipes. If your home was built prior to 1970, you probably have rust-filled and corroded galvanized water pipes.
If you answered "yes" to any of these questions, then consider copper repiping, by Jomi Plumbing.
Benefits of repiping your home include:
Replacing your old and damaged galvanized water pipes with new clean copper piping is a good idea. Copper pipe does not corrode, does not rust, and once installed will last a lifetime.
After copper repiping you will enjoy:
Reduced Plumbing Costs
Clean/Clear Water Without Rust
Better Volume and Water Flow
Better Tasting Drinking Water
A Great Selling Feature (if you plan to sell your home or building)
Copper repiping may also let you take a comfortable shower, wash dishes, water the lawn, wash laundry, and use faucets and fixtures at the same time. Copper Repiping gives you great water pressure, improves delivery of hot water, reduces or eliminates plumbing repairs, and saves money on water loss.
