Quality Service Company, LLC installs plumbing upgrades in Florence, SC. We serve homes across the Pee Dee region. These small parts help protect your floors, fixtures and water heater.
Your tech will check your system and tell you which ones make sense for your house.
Which plumbing upgrades can we add?
- Moen Flo smart water shutoff: Watches your water use, shuts off the main when it senses a leak and alerts your phone.
- Pressure-reducing valves: High water pressure is hard on faucets, toilets and water heaters. Your tech can test your pressure and tell you if a valve would help.
- Expansion tanks: Water expands as it heats. An expansion tank gives it room, which eases strain on the tank and pipes. Your tech will check whether your system needs one.
- Water heater anode rod replacement: The anode rod wears away so the tank does not rust as fast. Your tech can check yours and tell you if it is worn.
- Fixture upgrades: Faucets, toilets and showerheads that use less water.
How does a smart water shutoff help in a hard freeze?
A Moen Flo shutoff closes your main on its own when it senses a leak. If a pipe bursts in a freeze, closing the main can limit the damage.
It watches how water moves through your main line. It also sends an alert to your phone.
Valves come in sizes from 3/4 inch to 1-1/4 inch. You can add leak sensors by the water heater and under sinks.
Florence winters are short, but hard freezes happen. Florence Regional Airport recorded a low of 15 degrees on December 24, 2022. Two days later the low was 14.
That week, the City of Florence lost at least 20 million gallons of water. A water main broke on Christmas Day. Pipes also leaked in homes, businesses and sprinkler systems.
That is the kind of leak a shutoff is built to catch early. Ask your insurance agent whether your policy gives credit for an automatic water shutoff.
Is an older home due for a closer look?
If your home was built before 1980, it is worth a plumbing check. Nearly half the homes in the City of Florence are that old. Census estimates for 2020 to 2024 put the share at 46.7 percent and the median build year at 1983.
If your home is from that era, your tech will check the water pressure, the shutoffs and the water heater. Then they will explain your options and what to do first.
What will an upgrade cost?
You choose what to do and when.
