FAQs
What kinds of tank water heaters can Expert Team Plumbing install or service in Beersheba Springs?
Our licensed technicians work on every major brand of gas, electric, and propane storage-type water heaters from 20- to 120-gallon capacities. Whether you need a standard atmospheric-vent model, a power-vent unit, or a high-efficiency condensing tank, we carry the parts, venting components, and expertise to install, repair, or replace it quickly. We also handle code upgrades, shut-off valve replacements, expansion tanks, and earthquake straps so the entire system meets Tennessee plumbing and safety regulations.
How long does a typical water-heater replacement take, and will my hot water be out all day?
Most residential tank replacements in Beersheba Springs take three to five hours from shut-down to final ignition. We arrive with the new heater pre-staged on our truck, drain and remove your old unit, make any needed plumbing or venting adjustments, install the new heater, fill and purge the tank, test for gas leaks (if applicable), and verify proper temperature recovery. Your hot water is usually restored the same morning or afternoon, minimizing disruption to your household.
What warning signs indicate my tank water heater needs service or replacement?
Watch for: 1) rusty or discolored hot water; 2) rumbling, popping, or banging sounds from sediment buildup; 3) water that takes longer to heat or quickly runs cold; 4) visible leaks or moisture around the base; 5) fluctuating water temperatures; and 6) an age of 10-12 years or more. Beersheba Springs has moderately hard water, so sediment can shorten tank life if not flushed. Call us at the first sign of trouble—early repairs often prevent costly tank ruptures and water damage.
How often should my tank water heater be flushed, and does your company offer maintenance plans?
For our local water conditions, we recommend a full tank flush and anode-rod inspection once a year. Flushing removes sediment that insulates the burner element, reduces efficiency, and accelerates corrosion. Expert Team Plumbing offers an annual maintenance plan that includes flushing, temperature and pressure relief-valve testing, anode-rod checks, thermostat calibration, and a written condition report. Members receive priority scheduling and a 10 % discount on any repairs discovered during the visit.
Can upgrading to a high-efficiency or high-recovery tank water heater lower my utility bills?
Yes. New ENERGY STAR® gas storage heaters with electronic ignition and better insulation can cut fuel use by up to 8 – 14 % compared with standard models. High-recovery electric units paired with heat-pump technology can achieve savings of 30 % or more. We provide free on-site assessments, calculate payback periods based on Beersheba Springs’ average electric (TVA) and natural-gas rates, and help you apply for any current manufacturer rebates or local utility incentives.
What warranties and workmanship guarantees do you provide on tank water heater projects?
Every new heater we install comes with the full manufacturer’s parts warranty—typically 6, 9, or 12 years on the tank and 1 year on labor. Expert Team Plumbing adds a written two-year workmanship warranty covering all piping, venting, and gas/electrical connections we install. If any installation-related issue arises within that period, we’ll correct it at no cost. We also offer optional extended labor warranties that match the longest available tank coverage for worry-free ownership.
