Frequently Asked Questions
Should I use chemical drain cleaners?
No. Most retail drain cleaners are harmful to your plumbing. Over time these products can corrode the inner lining of drain pipes.
Call A-1 Speedy Rooter and Plumbing to properly clean out your drains – we’ll be happy to assist you.
What is a leak detection service?
This is a specialized service intended to find hidden leaks underground and under foundations, utilizing state of the art sound detection devices. These ultra-sonic leak detection devices are the most effective method to promptly and efficiently find your leak source.
A-1 Speedy Rooter and Plumbing specializes in professional slab leak detection and repair. We will determine the precise location of your leak and solve the problem as soon as possible.
Why does my water heater run out of hot water so quickly?
There may be nothing wrong with your water heater. It may actually be that your faucets and shower heads are the problem source.
Some older shower heads put out up to 5 gallons per minute. Newer shower heads only allow around 2.5 gallons of volume per minute. Switching to lower volume shower heads and faucets may solve the problem.
Another problem may be that your water heaters’ dip tube needs to be replaced.
If you are experiencing this problem, contact A-1 Speedy Rooter and Plumbing to resolve the problem.
What is causing my water heater to leak water?
The most common cause of water leaks from your water heater would be a rusted out tank. This would require you to replace the entire water heater.
If your water heater is not near the end of the manufacturers’ life estimate your problem may be from a source that is much simpler and less of a financial strain. For example, the pressure relief valve, usually located at the top of the unit, could be leaking.
At A-1 Speedy Rooter and Plumbing you can be rest-assured that our expertly trained technicians will promptly diagnose your leak problem and suggest a solution that will be in your best interest.
Why does my toilet keep refilling?
There are many reasons for a toilet that constantly runs. It could be that the flapper isn’t seating properly.
The flapper can accumulate a thin layer of scale or a slippery film over time which can cause the water seal to fail. Replacing the flapper will correct this problem.
Another cause can be a kinked or tangled lift chain which is easily fixed as well.
If neither of these is the problem, it could be a worn out flush valve.
Our professionals at A-1 Speedy Rooter and Plumbing will have your water wasting toilet repaired in no time.
Why is my electric water heater not heating?
In many cases the cause for your water heater not heating properly is a tripped high-temperature cutoff. This can be fixed by simply pressing the reset button. If that doesn’t work it could be a faulty heating element. If that is the case you must replace the element.
How do I choose the right water heater for my home?
Choosing the right water heater depends on a number of factors that include: the number of people in your household, number of bathtubs and/or showers, whether your home has a dishwasher, washing machine or whirlpool bathtub, and whether your water heater is a natural gas or electric unit.
Typically, for a family of 4, a 50 gallon gas water heater will be sufficient for your needs. If your water heater is electric you would want to consider a 50-60 gallon unit.
Please contact A-1 Speedy Rooter and Plumbing to ensure the unit you choose will serve your needs.
What is meant by the terms “hard water” and “soft water”?
“Hard water” is water that contains high levels of calcium and/or magnesium. The presence of these minerals in high amounts can result in deposits, called scale, on appliances and fixtures and can negatively affect their performance over time.
Hard water can also decrease the cleansing action of soaps and detergents you use in cleaning our dishes, clothing and in bathing by creating films on surfaces instead of dissipating the soaps and detergents for maximum effectiveness.
Having a water softening system installed in your home will essentially eliminate calcium and magnesium through interaction with sodium through a process called ion exchange.
Why do my water pipes rattle?
The problem may be that water lines are not properly isolated from the structural elements of your home. If this is the case, the motion of water moving through the pipes may be transferring to beams, joists or studs in or beneath your flooring or in the walls.
If the pipes are accessible the solution may be as simple as inserting an insulating material between the pipes and the structural elements they are touching. If your pipes only rattle when the water is turned on or off it may be that you need to install a water hammer arrester that will eliminate the jolt caused by quick closing water valves. This problem is not always easy to diagnose and you should always rely on a plumbing professional to accurately diagnose your rattling pipe problem.

Yorba Linda, Orange County, California
Yorba Linda (Spanish for “Beautiful Yorba”) is a suburban city in Orange County, California, approximately 37 miles (60 km) southeast of Downtown Los Angeles. The suburb’s most famous resident was Richard Nixon. His birthplace is a National Historic Landmark, at his presidential library and museum located there. Yorba Linda is part of the Los Angeles metropolitan area according to the US Census. As of the 2010 census, its population was 64,234.
[ Geography ]
According to the United States Census Bureau, the city has a total area of 20.0 square miles (52 km2). 19.5 square miles (51 km2) of which is land and 0.5 square miles (1.3 km2) (2.67%), water.
It has two ZIP codes, 92886 and 92887, covering approximately the western and eastern portions of the city, respectively. A third, 92885, exists exclusively for PO Boxes. The city is served by area codes 657 and 714 in a geographical overlay situation, in which 714 numbers were running out, so that 657 numbers are now also being issued in the same area. Eleven-digit dialing is therefore now required for local calls.
It is bordered by Anaheim on the south, Placentia on the west and southwest, Brea on the northwest, Chino Hills State Park on the north, and Corona on the east.
The two nearest seismic faults are the Whittier Fault and the Chino Fault, both of which are part of the Elsinore Fault Zone.
[ Economy ]
The primary commercial district in Yorba Linda is Savi Ranch.
Smaller shopping centers in the city include:
- Eastlake Village Shopping Center
- Mercado del Rio
- Packing House Square
- Yorba Linda Station Plaza
- Country Club Village
In 2016, construction began on the Yorba Linda Town Center, a 125,000-square-foot shopping and dining center on the corner of Yorba Linda Boulevard and Imperial Highway, featuring Bristol Farms as an anchor tenant. The shopping center opened in April 2019.
There are over 1,000 businesses in the city, not including an additional 1,500 home-based businesses.[46] The city also owns Black Gold Golf Club.[47] Non-profit charities based in Yorba Linda include International Student Volunteers and STEMpowerment Inc.
[ Savi Ranch ]
Savi Ranch is an acronym of Santa Ana Valley Irrigation, an early water company. Savi Ranch today contains retailers, auto dealers, restaurants, hotels, and office buildings.
Originally, the city pursued construction of an auto mall on the entire Savi Ranch site. The original plan was rejected by residents in favor of a combination of retail stores, restaurants, hotels, and office buildings. As of 2018, one of the three original car lots has been converted into state-mandated low-income housing, one is vacant, and the sole remaining car dealer, specializing in high-end, exotic, and specialty used cars, is active.
As a significant source of sales tax revenue to Yorba Linda and as one of the first anchor tenants (along with Best Buy), The Home Depot became a political talking point in its own right, due to the geography that divides Savi Ranch into two sections, the larger east side falling within Yorba Linda’s city limits, and the west side where Home Depot is situated falling within the adjacent City of Anaheim boundaries. At the inception of Savi Ranch, the Home Depot was located in Savi Ranch East. In the early 2000s, however, the Super Kmart location in Savi Ranch West ceased operations and The Home Depot moved into the location it previously occupied, taking the sales tax revenue with it to Anaheim.
Also located in the Yorba Linda side of Savi Ranch is the headquarters of John Force Racing, housing operations & hosting displays of legendary 16-time NHRA Funny Car Champion John Force, his team of drivers, and their cars. An on-site museum is dedicated to Force’s career.
