Manufactured and Mobile Home Plumbing

If you have a nontraditional home, then you’ve no doubt encountered some issues getting reliable help with manufactured and mobile home plumbing. It’s true that manufactured homes and mobile homes are a bit different when it comes to plumbing service. Despite the objections other plumbers may raise, however, we believe that you deserve good service.

Here at Sav-On Plumbing, that’s exactly what we provide. With a superhero-like ability to squeeze under homes and hardcore courage when it comes to scorpions, snakes and spiders, we’ll get you what you need with a minimum of fuss and a maximum of friendly service. We know how stressful it is to experience plumbing issues, whether routine or emergency, and we’ll do everything we can to minimize the stress and keep the problem from happening again.

Manufactured/Mobile Home Plumbing 101: What You Need to Know

Most plumbers won’t work on manufactured and mobile homes, for the simple reason that they just don’t want to crawl underneath. That’s not so hard to understand: the underside of your home is probably cramped, dirty, and often home to rats, spiders, ants, reptiles and more. Especially here in the hot, desert climate or Arizona, we have some very unappealing animals (scorpions) that can leave a vicious sting. If you want a plumber who can handle those critters without throwing a tantrum or charging extra, it’s time to get in touch.

So what else do you need to know about mobile home plumbing? Well, some of the fixtures and pipes aren’t traditional. They may adopt nonstandard dimensions, have hard-to-find fittings or simply have passed their useful life. Especially with old galvanized hardware, some plumbers have a hard time finding replacements.

That’s not true here at Sav-On Plumbing. We’re known far and wide as the mobile home plumbers who get the job done. In addition to having a thorough understanding of mobile and manufactured home plumbing, we have the experience to score the parts you need or offer replacement solutions at an affordable rate.

Plus, we’ve been plumbing since 1981. If there’s anything we’ve learned from more than 35 years in the business, it’s this: It’s not that hard. Sure, it’s difficult for you to experience plumbing issues, and it might take a little squeezing on our part to get underneath, but we don’t mind. We have the chutzpah, endurance and good old-fashioned cheery attitudes to deal with the roadblocks that lesser plumbers fear.

The Hazards of Mobile Home Plumbing

So what are the hazards of mobile home plumbing? Because of the significantly different nature of plumbing in manufactured and mobile homes, inexperienced plumbing services can sometimes cause serious problems. Some of the biggest issues to consider include:

• Different piping materials make it hard for some plumbers to get the right replacements, and with the wrong materials, problems become much more likely.
• Many mobile homes use plastic pipes that aren’t up to code, break easily and do not mesh well with the mobile home’s systems. You need a plumber who knows how to service, repair and replace them.
• Plastic piping can spring leaks much more easily than metal or CPVC or PEX tubing, very quickly making repairs outdated.
• Pipe locations are often different as well, meaning the structure of the entire plumbing system is unusual. That makes replacement and repair difficult for plumbers who are not used to such a layout.
• Because mobile homes are small, they may prove too cramped for some piping systems. That means plumbers need to be creative to serve the home without creating a space issue.
• Mobile and manufactured homes may vent drain pipes differently. To those unfamiliar with this kind of system, repair and replacement pose serious challenges and ups the chances of doing something wrong.
• Because manufactured and mobile homes use different systems for washing machine and sewer drainage, they may prove harder to drain or clean out than traditional homes, again necessitating a plumber with direct mobile/manufactured home experience.

Convinced yet? You don’t want a plumber who doesn’t know what they’re doing working on your home, if you can even convince them to come. Far from fixing the problem, they may actually make it worse. You can avoid that by calling our team at Sav-On Plumbing today.

How Do You Know You Need Help?

So how do you know if you need help with your mobile or manufactured home plumbing? This at least is pretty straightforward, because the signs and symptoms of plumbing trouble are similar across the board. These include:

• A lack of hot water
• Clogged toilets
• Drains backing up or clogging
• Faucets dripping or not working as expected
• Toilets running

… and so on.
