Utility Locating

In this video, I’m joined by Darren Rowe, a skilled plumber from East Oakland, CA, as we tackle a sewer issue on the lateral sewer line of a home in Oakland. Using the VLoc 3 Pro Locator by Vivax, we pinpoint the exact location of the problem in the line with precision and ease. The VLoc 3 Pro is one of the best tools for accurately tracing underground utility lines, and we demonstrate how it can save time and effort when locating sewer line issues. Whether it’s a blockage, break, or other obstruction, this tool helps us get to the root of the problem quickly.

Whether you're in plumbing, electrical, or general contracting, this tool helps you pinpoint buried lines and camera heads with ease. I’ll walk you through the setup, features, and real-world applications of the Hot Spot Locator, showing how it can save time, reduce guesswork, and help avoid costly mistakes during excavation or repairs.

Notice on Non-Compete Agreements in California

Hydronos Corporation Employee Rights Statement

Hydronos Corporation complies with California law, which makes nearly all non-compete agreements illegal and unenforceable.

1. What the Law Says

California Business & Professions Code §16600:
“Every contract by which anyone is restrained from engaging in a lawful profession, trade, or business of any kind is to that extent void.”
This means that employers in California cannot prevent employees from working for a competitor, starting their own business, or engaging in their chosen trade after leaving employment.

2. Limited Exceptions

The only recognized exceptions under California law are:

Sale of a Business: A seller may agree not to compete with the buyer in a defined geographic area.
Dissolution of a Partnership or LLC: Partners or members may agree to certain restrictions when winding down a company.

Outside of these rare cases, non-compete agreements are not valid.

3. Court Decisions

California courts have consistently rejected non-competes:

Edwards v. Arthur Andersen LLP (2008): The California Supreme Court held that non-compete clauses in employment agreements are void.
Golden v. California Emergency Physicians (2015): The Ninth Circuit confirmed that even settlement agreements restricting employment violate §16600.

4. New Protections for Employees (2024)

Recent California laws have strengthened these protections:

SB 699 (effective January 1, 2024): Makes it unlawful for any employer to enter into, attempt to enforce, or suggest a non-compete with employees or prospective employees.
AB 1076 (effective January 1, 2024): Requires employers to notify current and certain former employees that any non-compete clauses they may have signed are void.

5. Hydronos Policy

Hydronos does not and will not use non-compete agreements as a condition of employment, partnership, or contracting.
Any non-compete clause presented to an employee in California is automatically void and unenforceable.
We fully respect the right of every team member to pursue future work, whether with a competitor, independently, or in a new industry.

6. If You Encounter a Non-Compete

If you are ever asked to sign a non-compete agreement in California — whether by Hydronos or any other employer — you should know:

It is unenforceable under California law.
You may have legal rights if an employer tries to restrict your future employment.
Questions or concerns can be directed to a qualified employment attorney or the California Department of Industrial Relations.

📌 Hydronos Corporation stands for fairness, opportunity, and compliance with California labor law. We believe your skills, knowledge, and trade experience are yours to use — freely and without unlawful restrictions.
