FAQs

What is a tank water heater and how does it work?

A tank water heater is a common household appliance that stores and heats a fixed amount of water in an insulated tank. The water is kept at a preset temperature using a heating element or gas burner. When hot water is drawn from the tank, cold water enters to replace it and is gradually heated, ensuring a consistent supply of hot water.

What is the typical lifespan of a tank water heater?

The lifespan of a tank water heater generally ranges from 8 to 12 years, depending on factors such as water quality, usage frequency, and regular maintenance. Routine inspections and timely repairs can extend the life of the water heater significantly.

How should I maintain my tank water heater?

Regular maintenance is essential for tank water heaters. This includes flushing the tank annually to remove sediment buildup, checking the pressure relief valve for proper operation, inspecting the anode rod for corrosion, and ensuring all connections are secure. Professional plumbers can provide a thorough check-up every year to ensure safety and efficiency.

What signs indicate that my tank water heater might need repair or replacement?

Common signs include inconsistent water temperatures, strange noises (such as rumbling or popping), leaks around the tank, and reduced water pressure. Additionally, if you notice rust or a buildup of sediment at the bottom of the tank, it might indicate internal corrosion, which can lead to more significant issues if not addressed promptly.

How energy efficient are tank water heaters?

Tank water heaters are moderately energy efficient. However, they do continuously consume energy to maintain water temperature, which can lead to standby heat loss. Modern models with improved insulation and energy-efficient designs can reduce these losses. It's also worth considering that tankless water heaters offer higher energy efficiency if you are looking to minimize energy consumption.

Why should I choose professional plumbing services for my water heater installation and maintenance in Speedwell?

Professional plumbing services ensure that your water heater is installed correctly, maintained properly, and repaired safely, reducing the risk of costly damage or hazardous situations. Licensed plumbers have the expertise to diagnose issues, perform timely repairs, and adhere to local building codes and safety standards. This guarantees not only the longevity of your water heater but also the safety of your home and family.

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.

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!!!

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.

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.
