Hi Dsbaloo. Maria's (Nick Moss) husband started a company called Mueller Industries. It is a plumbing supply company that provides HVAC piping and other plumbing supplies for commercial and residential customers. My hotel is actually a customer of his company. For those who do not know Malibu in my opinion is the most beautiful and high end place to live in the US aside from parts of NYC. Malibu makes people in Beverly Hills look like peasant beggars. Here is their website.
