Eco Electric, Plumbing, Heating and Air serves Redondo — the boardwalk beach community on Poverty Bay in Des Moines — with one licensed team across electrical, plumbing, and heating & cooling. Homesteaded as Stone's Landing in 1871 and renamed Redondo in the early 1900s with California-resort ambitions, Redondo got its dance hall, skating rink, and bowling alley within a decade and spent its first half-century as a summer place — locals remember it as a "little Coney Island of the West." Most homes were only summered in until the 1950s; today about a thousand people live year-round above the half-mile boardwalk, the fishing pier, and the MaST Center aquarium.

Resort cottages that grew into year-round homes
Redondo's oldest homes started as summer cottages — and buildings that grew by decades of add-ons carry mixed-era wiring, undersized services, and plumbing that was never designed for daily family life. We start with an electrical inspection to map what's really there, stage rewiring to protect original construction, repipe galvanized-era lines, and bring panel capacity up to what heat pumps, induction ranges, and EV chargers actually draw.
Salt air at beach level, drainage on the hill
Down on Redondo Beach Drive, homes face working salt water — marine air corrodes coils, cabinets, and electrical lugs faster than inland exposure, so our heat pump installs here favor factory coil-protection options, sheltered placements, and a seasonal fresh-water rinse. On the lowest beach-drive lots we keep mechanical equipment up out of the wet: platformed water heaters with pans plumbed to daylight, elevated outdoor units, and sump systems in low crawlspaces. The steep slope up to the heights above the bay sheds serious winter water — footing drains, downspout routing, and sump capacity protect the view homes above the bay.
Des Moines permits, PSE rebates — handled
Redondo sits inside Des Moines, which runs its own electrical permitting and inspections through the city's Building Division — we pull the city permit and meet the inspector. The serving utility is Puget Sound Energy: rebates run $500–$1,500 on qualifying air-source heat pumps (plus a potential fuel-switching bonus), up to about $1,500 on qualifying ductless systems, and ENERGY STAR heat pump water heater rebates. Income-eligible households can stack Washington HEAR point-of-sale discounts — up to $8,000 on a heat pump, $1,750 on a heat pump water heater, $4,000 on a supporting panel upgrade. We confirm what applies and file everything. See current Washington rebates or compare honestly first: heat pump vs. gas furnace for Puget Sound homes.

Homes in Redondo — and the systems that fit them
Pick the property type that matches yours to see which electrical, plumbing, and heating & cooling upgrades make the most sense for how these homes were actually built.
Which home is yours?
Built 1900s-1940s. Summer places that became homes - mixed-era wiring, small services, galvanized lines, and additions from every decade since the dance-hall days.
- Electrical Inspections Map the decades in the walls and catch salt-air corrosion early.
- Wiring & Rewiring Staged rewires that respect original cottage construction.
- Repiping Galvanized supply lines rust shut from the inside; repiping restores pressure.
- Ductless Mini-Splits Efficient comfort for cottages built without ducts.

FAQ — Redondo homes
Our Redondo home started as a summer cottage. What should we check first?
The electrical system. Cottages that grew into year-round homes carry mixed-era wiring, undersized services, and junctions from every decade of additions. An inspection maps it; from there we stage rewiring, panel work, and any repiping in the right order - once, cleanly.
Does beach-level equipment really need different care than up the hill?
Yes. On Redondo Beach Drive the marine air is genuinely corrosive - coils, cabinets, and lugs age faster than a few blocks uphill. We spec coastal coil options, shelter placements, and put a fresh-water rinse on a seasonal schedule; exterior panels get corrosion checks during inspections.
How do you place water heaters on the low beach lots?
Elevated and protected: platformed tanks with drain pans plumbed to daylight, and sump systems backing up the lowest crawlspaces. The low lanes by the boardwalk sit close to the water - equipment placement should respect that.
Who issues electrical permits in Redondo?
The City of Des Moines - it runs its own electrical permitting and inspections through the city's Building Division rather than state L&I. Eco pulls the city permit and meets the inspector as part of the job.
What rebates apply in Redondo?
Puget Sound Energy serves Des Moines: $500-$1,500 on qualifying air-source heat pumps (plus a possible fuel-switching bonus), up to about $1,500 on ductless systems, and ENERGY STAR heat pump water heater rebates. Income-eligible households can stack WA HEAR point-of-sale discounts - up to $8,000 (heat pump), $1,750 (heat pump water heater), $4,000 (supporting panel upgrade). We confirm and file everything.
