  • Improperly crossed cold and hot connections

Repairing water heaters

It is possible to diagnose and repair a water heater, which depends on the issue at hand. Repairs need to be done according to the problem. In some cases, you may have to get the parts replaced, have the system reset, or flush it out.

Water heaters are made of different parts. There are chances that one part can become faulty or could burn out faster than other parts. The primary examples, in this case, are the piping and the thermostat. In some cases, the thermostat must be synced with the whole system. There are other instances where the installation is done wrong, which leads to issues. It is important to call us so that we can do things right or make rectifications when they are needed.

Piping, on the other hand, can clog and age. It is not wise to install a heater without verifying that the piping is great.When you have issues with your water heater, we first make a diagnosis and can tell whether your piping has issues or not. We check everything when installing a new system or replacing an old one, including the piping.

We are reliable because we use specialized tools to diagnose and repair your water heaters. Being specialists in the field, you can expect good results every time you call us.

Flushing the water heater must be done a couple of times each year. This is done to remove any sediment within the water heater. If this is not handled quickly, serious issues can arise. We can recommend the number of times this needs to be done depending on your current location on the East Side.

Is a leaking water heater safe?

We easily get into problems because of how reckless we can get at times. You may have noticed that your heater is leaking, but you keep using it. This is not safe. It should never be done. The reason the heater is leaking could be due to sediment buildup. Sediment makes it hard for pressure to build up as it is supposed to.

One thing that happens when you leave sediment to build up without correcting it is cracking the tank. Rust is the thing that follows, even though this takes a while. If you notice a leak, you need to call us. We could correct this by repair, or you may have to replace the system according to how bad the damage is.

The water heater must be flushed often to avoid this kind of scenario. This can handle the issue. Even if you think the leakage is trivial, you should realize that the problem only gets worse over time.

Signs that a heater is not in good condition

Honesty is our strong suit, and we always say it as we see it. If you have issues with your water heater, contact us and get a professional opinion from a local small business that understands all plumbing issues in the area.

There are times when we will advise you to replace the water heater instead of just repairing it. It is not only leaks that lead us to that conclusion. We make a whole diagnosis, and sometimes we discover there are other issues with the system like:

Noisy water heater: when the water heater makes a lot of loud, annoying noise, it could indicate that there is a serious issue within.

Incompatibility with your needs: there are times when your needs are more than the water heater can handle.

Advanced age: most water heaters are designed to last a long time. It may be wise to replace them when they seem to have outlived their normal age and then start failing now and then.

Rust: rust is indicated by a general dirty look or coating at the bottom. This means that the water is no longer safe for consumption.
