Plumbing in Chino: what to know
Chino was laid out in 1887 and incorporated in 1910, and for much of the 20th century it was farm and dairy country. From the 1950s through the 1980s, dairies run largely by Dutch immigrant families made the area one of the most productive milk regions in the country. The older homes near downtown Chino date from those earlier decades, and many still have galvanized lines, cast iron drains and clay sewer laterals.
South Chino has changed the most. The Preserve, a master plan on former dairy and farm land annexed in 2003, has been adding thousands of new homes with modern plumbing, and College Park is another newer planned community. The City of Chino serves most of the city with a mix of imported water, city wells and treated groundwater from the Chino Basin desalters. Chino is in the Inland Empire Utilities Agency area, which prohibits installing new or replacement self-regenerating salt water softeners.

Chino plumbing FAQs
Can I install a water softener in Chino?+
Chino is in the Inland Empire Utilities Agency area, which prohibits installing new or replacement self-regenerating (salt-discharging) water softeners, because the salt ends up in the region's recycled water and groundwater. An existing working unit can stay, and exchange-tank softener service is allowed. We can also talk about scale-reduction options for your water heater and fixtures.
My home is new in The Preserve. Should I call the builder or a plumber?+
If the home is still under the builder's warranty, check with the builder first, since they may cover defects. For an emergency like a burst line, shut off the water and call us right away - we'll stop the damage and note the cause so you have it for the warranty claim.
Who supplies water in Chino?+
The City of Chino serves most of the city, and Monte Vista Water District serves some portions. Your water bill shows which one you have. Plumbing on the house side of the meter is the owner's responsibility, and that's what we repair.
