Water Heater Services

Choosing between a tankless and traditional water heater depends on your home’s hot water needs. A traditional tank-style water heater stores a large amount of hot water, making it ideal for households with high water consumption, such as large families. However, they can take up more space and consume more energy as they constantly maintain the water temperature. On the other hand, tankless water heaters heat water on demand, providing endless hot water while being more energy-efficient. They are compact and ideal for homes with limited space, but their upfront cost can be higher. Additionally, tankless systems may not be ideal for homes with very high water usage at the same time (e.g., multiple showers running simultaneously). We can help you assess your water usage, home size, and energy goals to determine which option is best for you. Whether you go with a traditional or tankless model, we’ll ensure it’s installed properly for optimal performance.

Sediment buildup is a common issue in water heaters, especially in areas with hard water. Over time, minerals like calcium and magnesium can accumulate at the bottom of the tank, reducing the efficiency of the heater and increasing energy costs. If left untreated, sediment buildup can lead to noises, poor heating, and even premature failure of your water heater. One way to prevent sediment buildup is through regular maintenance, specifically by flushing the tank annually. This helps remove accumulated debris and keeps your system running efficiently. Additionally, installing a water softener can help reduce the mineral content in your water, preventing further buildup. If you’ve already noticed sediment-related issues, we offer professional flushing services to clear your tank and restore its performance. Keeping up with regular inspections and maintenance is the best way to extend the life of your water heater and avoid costly repairs.

Strange noises like popping, rumbling, or hissing are often caused by sediment buildup in your water heater. Over time, minerals in the water settle at the bottom of the tank, forming a layer of sediment. As the water heater heats up, this sediment traps heat, causing the water to boil underneath it, which creates the noises you hear. If left unchecked, the sediment can affect your water heater’s efficiency and cause premature wear and tear on the heating element. In extreme cases, it can even cause the tank to fail. To resolve this issue, it’s recommended to have your water heater flushed, which removes the sediment and restores normal operation. If you’re hearing unusual sounds, it’s a good idea to schedule an inspection to prevent more serious issues from developing. Our team can diagnose the problem and provide a solution, ensuring your water heater runs quietly and efficiently.

Investing in an energy-efficient water heater can offer significant savings over time, making it a smart choice for many homeowners. These systems are designed to use less energy, which translates into lower utility bills. Although energy-efficient water heaters often come with a higher upfront cost, the savings on your energy bills can offset this investment over the long term. For example, modern ENERGY STAR-certified water heaters can reduce energy consumption by up to 50%, which could save you hundreds of dollars annually. Additionally, energy-efficient models are better for the environment by reducing your carbon footprint. Many utility companies also offer incentives or rebates for upgrading to energy-efficient models, which can further reduce your overall cost. Whether you’re replacing an old, inefficient water heater or building a new home, we can help you choose the right energy-efficient model that fits your needs and budget.
