California Water Conservation and Plumbing Code Notes
- WaterSense toilets are typically 1.28 GPF or lower and are widely accepted for replacement projects.
- Many California projects now require low-flow fixture standards when replacing toilets, showerheads, or faucets.
- Backflow prevention is commonly required where irrigation, boilers, or specific cross-connection risks exist.
- Permit and inspection requirements can differ by city and project scope, so we verify exact local requirements before work starts.
