24/7 Emergency Water Heater Repair

If your plumbing problem can cause property damage or is a health hazard, it’s an emergency. Small water heater leaks from the temperature and pressure relief valve (on the top of a storage tank) may not be a problem, but any leak from the bottom of the tank is a plumbing emergency.

5 Signs It’s Time to Replace Your Water Heater

Most storage water heaters can last about 10 years, and tankless water heater lifespans can exceed 20 years. These signs indicate it’s time to upgrade to a new, energy-efficient water heater:

• Age or frequent repairs: If your storage tank hasn’t been cleaned or maintained in over 10 years and has had two or more repairs, it’s likely time to invest in a new unit.
• Corrosion or sediment buildup: Hard water buildup and interior rust impact your water’s taste and texture.
• Discolored or smelly water: Rusty, cloudy, or gritty-tasting water signals a water heater problem. Sewage or gas smells indicate the presence of dangerous bacteria or other contaminants.
• Insufficient or no hot water: Replacement may be necessary if your hot water takes too long to heat or runs out too soon.
• Odd noises:  Banging, clicking, hissing, screeches, whistling, or deep rumbling sounds require immediate service and likely replacement.

Before you buy, let’s discuss the type and size of water heater that’s best for your space and your lifestyle. You can choose from energy-efficient gas or electric storage, expansion, and tankless water heaters.

3 Reasons Not to DIY Water Heater Installation

·   DIY installation can void the warranty.

·   If property damage occurs because of your DIY installation, your insurance company can deny coverage.

·   Removing an old water heater is messy and storage tank disposal is seldom easy.

·   You risk serious injury.

5 Benefits of Switching to a Tankless Water Heater

Today, storage tank water heaters are energy-efficient and can measurably reduce monthly energy bills. Federal tax credits are available with new, energy-efficient water heater installation through 2032.

If it’s time for a water heater replacement, there are many reasons to choose tankless. On-demand (tankless) water heaters reduce the standby energy loss of storage tanks. Depending on how much hot water your home uses, you can increase energy efficiency by 8% to 34%.

Advantages of tankless water heaters include:

• Convenience: Hot water is delivered in seconds. No more taking turns for morning showers; no need to delay laundry or dishwashing.
• Economy: You can save thousands over the lifetime of a tankless water heater and the annual expense of storage versus tankless is reduced by half. Tankless water heaters are also proven to increase property value.
• Longevity: Tankless water heaters cost more initially, but they last twice as long as storage tank water heaters.
• Space saving: Tankless water heaters are about the size of a small suitcase. They use less floor space or can be wall-mounted in almost any location.
• Unlimited hot water: The water heats when you turn the hot-water faucet handle. You’ll never use all the hot water, and you’ll never have to wait for water to heat.
