FAQs
What types of high-efficiency plumbing fixtures do you install in Petros homes?
We install a full range of WaterSense-labeled and high-efficiency fixtures, including low-flow toilets (1.28 gpf or less), dual-flush toilets, pressure-assisted toilets, ultra-low-flow showerheads (1.5–2.0 gpm), aerated or laminar-flow faucets (1.2 gpm or less), touchless or metering faucets for commercial spaces, and hybrid electric/heat-pump water heaters. We also replace traditional angle stops, supply lines, and traps with lead-free, code-approved components to ensure maximum performance and durability.
How much water and money can I expect to save by upgrading my fixtures?
A typical Petros household that replaces pre-1994 toilets (3.5–5 gpf), showerheads (3.0 gpm), and faucets (2.2 gpm) can cut indoor water use by 20–35 percent. That translates to about 7,000–12,000 gallons saved per person each year, trimming $80–$150 off the combined water and sewer bill. If you have electric water heating, the lower hot-water demand from efficient showerheads and faucets can reduce energy costs by an additional $40–$60 annually.
Will efficient fixtures affect my water pressure or shower experience?
Modern WaterSense showerheads and faucets rely on advanced aeration, pressure-compensation, and micro-nozzle designs. They maintain a strong, consistent spray feel even in homes with supply pressures as low as 30 psi. Most customers report the same or better rinsing performance compared to older 2.5–3.0 gpm models. For toilets, pressure-assist or fully glazed trapways prevent clogs and provide a reliable single-flush clear, so performance is not sacrificed for savings.
How long does a typical plumbing fixture replacement project take?
For a single toilet, showerhead, and two lavatory faucets, the work usually takes 3–4 hours, including removal, installation, leak testing, and haul-away of the old fixtures. A whole-home fixture overhaul (two bathrooms, kitchen, and laundry) can often be completed in one business day by a two-person crew. We schedule projects at your convenience, arrive with all parts on hand, and provide a detailed walk-through before we leave.
Do I need permits or inspections for fixture replacements in Petros?
Petros follows the 2021 International Plumbing Code (IPC). Simple like-for-like fixture swaps typically do not require a permit. However, if the replacement involves relocating drains, altering venting, or modifying the water heater capacity, a permit and city inspection may be necessary. As licensed and insured plumbers, we handle all permit applications and coordinate inspections to keep your project compliant and worry-free.
What warranties and post-installation support do you offer?
All fixtures we supply carry the manufacturer’s warranty—usually 10 years on mechanical parts, limited lifetime on finishes, and 1 year on electronics for touchless models. Our labor is guaranteed for two full years, covering leaks, installation adjustments, and workmanship defects. We also provide a complimentary one-year check-up to ensure valves, seals, and aerators are performing optimally and to answer any follow-up questions you may have.
