What Does a C-36 License Cover?

Provides means for a supply of safe water and proper disposal of fluid waste, including piping, storage tanks, venting, gas appliances and connections, water and gas piping, water heating equipment including solar, and health and safety devices such as backflow preventers and gas earthquake valves.

What This License Does Not Cover

Does not include forced warm-air units (see C-20).

California law requires a contractor license for this type of work on projects valued at $500 or more (combined labor and materials). Hiring an unlicensed contractor for work requiring a license may void your consumer protections.

Hiring a Plumbing Contractor

Plumbing work requires permits in California for most projects beyond simple fixture swaps. Verify the contractor pulls permits and that all work will be inspected. Ask about warranty coverage for both parts and labor.
