FAQs

What types of tank water heaters do you service in Lake City?

We service a wide range of tank water heaters including traditional electric and gas models as well as high-efficiency units. Our experienced team is familiar with various brands and can assist with installation, repair, and routine maintenance to ensure your water heater operates efficiently throughout its lifespan.

How often should I have my tank water heater serviced?

It is recommended to have your tank water heater inspected by a professional at least once a year. Regular maintenance helps to identify potential issues early, extend the lifespan of the unit, and maintain energy efficiency. In Lake City, where seasonal changes can affect your system, annual checks are particularly important.

What are the common signs my tank water heater needs repair?

Common signs include inconsistent water temperature, unusual noises such as rumbling or popping sounds, leaks around the unit, and rusty or discolored water. If you notice any of these issues, it is important to contact a professional plumber promptly to prevent further damage or potential safety hazards.

How long can I expect my tank water heater to last?

The lifespan of a tank water heater typically ranges from 10 to 15 years, depending on usage, maintenance, and water quality. Regular maintenance and prompt repairs can help extend its life. In the Lake City area, where water conditions may vary, periodic checks are essential for maximizing the unit's durability.

Is regular flushing necessary for maintaining my tank water heater?

Yes, regular flushing is important to remove sediment buildup that can accumulate at the bottom of the tank. Sediment reduces the efficiency of the heating element and can lead to premature wear. We recommend flushing your tank water heater at least once a year, or more frequently if you notice a reduction in performance.

How can I improve the energy efficiency of my tank water heater?

Improving energy efficiency can be achieved by ensuring proper insulation around the tank, setting the thermostat to an optimal temperature (usually between 120°F and 140°F), and performing regular maintenance to ensure the unit is operating at its best. Additionally, consider upgrading to a high-efficiency model if your current water heater is older or showing signs of wear.

I have to give HEP a 5 star rating on replacing all the galvanized plumbing in our 1941 house. Tim and Sam were very professional, tidy, and polite. They did their upmost to keep my home clean while they performed this service. They wore booties every time they came into the house. They cleaned up their mess when they were finished, and even took out an old water heater we had in the basement for us. I will definitely be using HEP for any of our future home needs. Thank you again!!!

Jerel did a very good job installing all of the plumbing fixtures and the water heater. He was professional and was able to execute it quickly. He really looked out for us. Thank you Jerel!

Kimberlie P.

Great service. My technician Zack was very professional and precise with his work. Answered all my concerns and numerous questions. Replaced a water pressure valve and hot water heater. Highly recommend Zack for any plumbing issues.

Jim W.

Kyle did a very good job in explaining all the problems that we had under our house and ways to correct the problems . Kyle wrote up three different bids we could choose from. We ended up with a 14 month contract to have PEX Plumbing installed and a new hot water heater. We were very happy with Kyle's presentation and we feel that the financial part of this loan will work well with our budget. We would recommend this company to anyone.

My hot water heater broke. They came the same day I called. Helped me with the different options I had. Came back the next morning and install the new heater. In less than 24 hours my leak was fixed, new heater installed and hot water was mine once again! They did a great job. Were professional and friendly. Will use them again and I highly recommend them. Thanks for the great job!

The techs were very knowledgable about my hot water heater which was 25 years old. We ended up replacing the old water heater. From the day we diagnosed the issue, HEP made the replacement within 24 hours. My installation was conducted in a very professional manner and was complete within 3 hours of arrival time. That included the time it took for the hot water to be available to me. Thank you HEP, you made a senior citizen very happy an grateful gir your service. The entire staff I dealt with were extremely helpful and understanding of my needs.
