Appendix B · updated
The owners
The people who own this site also own four businesses:
- PlumbingSupplyAndMore.com, a plumbing supply house that sells valves, gauges, tanks, water heaters and parts.
- Central Plumbing HVAC, a plumbing and heating company serving Bucks and Montgomery County, Pennsylvania. It does not work in San Diego County.
- SoftPro Water Systems, a water-treatment shop selling softeners and water test kits.
- Quality Water Treatment, also a water-treatment shop.
None of the four is a San Diego plumbing contractor, and none does work on North County homes.
Which pages carry same-owner links
Only pages where a product or service fits the topic carry a link, and most carry one or two. Examples include the pages on water softeners §2.3, pressure gauges and regulators, water heater parts, backflow devices, well water testing §7.3 and choosing a plumber §4.5. Many pages, including this site's watering rules and wildfire pages, carry none.
No figure, rule or recommendation on this site comes from these businesses. Numbers come from water districts, state code, the County and federal agencies, as described on about this site Appendix A.
How the links are labeled
Each link to one of the four businesses sits beside a short note saying the site has the same owners as that business, so you know before you click. The links are ordinary links. They are not marked or treated as paid placements. There are no per-click or referral fees, but the owners profit when someone buys from these businesses.
