Established in 1991, Arrow Plumbing first opened its doors after relocating to the Central Coast from Oahu, Hawaii. Arrow Plumbing was started by Daniel Keuma, who had elevated his skills as a maintenance personnel at Hawaii's #1 tourist attraction "The Polynesian Cultural Center", located in his home town of Laie, Hawaii. As a family owned and operated business he had raised two sons in the business. Since opening, plumbing needs and technology has changed dramatically. Arrow Plumbing has kept up with those demands with additional training needed to be current with those changes. Today, Arrow Plumbing is ready and prepared to take on any job, whether it be a minor drip on a faucet or re-piping your entire house. Give Arrow Plumbing a call today!

"Effectively paid $2200 per hour to fix 3 gas leaks in the line. Re-swabbed 2 couplings with glue and replaced 1 elbow coupling. Decide for yourself if that is expensive or not before calling."

"I called on a Saturday morning when no other company was answering calls. They picked up and said they would be here Monday morning. They were very professional yet also let me watch and learn how to take care of my tank. I also had a clogged line and they "jetted" it and I was instantly up and running. I learned so much, I don't think I will ever need emergency service again. I will call them back in 3 or 4 years so I won't stress my system and incur more problems!"

Sump Pump Installation questions, answered by experts

To test for toilet leaks, use water coloring in the water tank and see if the water slips into the bowl from the tank. This test will indicate if there’s a problem with the flapper or refill tube. You can also put water coloring in the bowl of the toilet to see if there is a leak there. If there is, you should see the colored water on the outside of the toilet bowl or on the floor. 

The life span of a properly maintained sump pump is about a decade. The broader life span for sump pumps is five to 15 years. If your sump pump is tripping a breaker or showing other signs of malfunction, it may be time to consider a replacement regardless of your sump pump's age. You should have someone who installs sump pumps check for corrosion and worn spots to stay ahead of issues with your sump pump. Additionally, replacing the float switch every two years is part of routine sump pump maintenance.

Some homeowners insurance policies cover unexpected water damage. However, they rarely cover damage resulting from an overflowing sump pump. If you want additional coverage for sump pump failure, you need to check if your insurer offers a rider or endorsement for this type of water damage. If they do, you need to have proof that your sump pump is regularly maintained.

When a backflow valve fails, wastewater will flow back into your system, contaminating your drinking water. You’ll immediately notice backflow valve failure from a rotten smell and brown water coming from faucets. Get in contact with a septic pro or a plumber immediately if you suspect this has happened to you.

You should be fine. Most high-grade grinder pumps have a 24-hour holding capacity within the tank. You can continue to use the facilities so long as the power outage does not stretch into days. In a worst-case scenario, attach a generator to the grinder pump, providing it has sufficient electric capacity.
