Ezra and Jose from Plumbing buddies were very professional and respectful of our property and always showed up on time and cleaned up after themselves.Ezra explained what was going to happen once our water got shut off. They began the re-piping under the house with ABS drain lines. finished one day and the 68 year-old cast-iron pipes are now gone. The new black ABS drain pipe should last for a long time. Highly recommend this company.

Solar Water Heaters in Glendora, CA
Plumbing Buddies installs solar water heaters for homeowners across Glendora and the surrounding San Gabriel Valley.
Expert Solar Water Heaters in Glendora, CA
Solar water heaters let Glendora homeowners put Southern California's abundant sunshine to work heating water for daily use. Roof-mounted collectors absorb solar energy and transfer that heat to a storage tank connected to your home's plumbing. A backup heating element handles demand on overcast days, so your hot water supply stays steady year-round. Glendora sits in the San Gabriel Valley foothills, where clear skies are common and solar thermal systems perform well throughout the seasons. Clay tile roofs are common in this area, and a proper installation accounts for that roofing type to avoid damage and keep the system secure. Jeremy, a 20-year plumber and army veteran, approaches every solar water heater job with the same straightforward honesty he brings to all his work. Plumbing Buddies serves homeowners across Glendora, San Dimas, Covina, West Covina, La Verne, Pasadena, Upland, Claremont, Rancho Cucamonga, Monrovia, and Arcadia. Call us to talk through whether a solar water heater is the right fit for your home.

FAQ
Solar Water Heaters FAQ
Common questions about solar water heaters in Glendora, CA.
Yes, Glendora's sunny San Gabriel Valley location makes it a strong fit for solar water heating. Clear skies throughout most of the year allow the collectors to absorb enough energy to cover a large share of your household's hot water needs.
Yes, solar water heating systems include a backup heating element that activates automatically when solar input is low. You will not lose access to hot water during overcast weather.
Yes, clay tile roofs common in the Glendora area require careful handling during collector mounting to avoid cracking tiles. A plumber experienced with local roofing types will account for this during the installation.
The solar collectors on your roof connect to a storage tank that ties into your home's current hot water plumbing. In most cases the system works alongside your existing water heater rather than replacing your full setup.
Solar water heaters work well for households with consistent daily hot water demand, which describes most family homes in San Dimas and La Verne. A proper site assessment looks at your roof orientation, shading, and usage to confirm the system is sized correctly for your home.
