As a homeowner, you want to keep spending to a minimum with every aspect of your household. This includes your water heater. Our professional water heater services can help. Everything from our expert installation to our routine maintenance services will provide you with a way to keep your water heater operating efficiently, which saves you money on energy costs.
Increase Performance With Prompt Repairs
When you’re having issues with your water heater, it’s probably using more energy than normal to meet your hot water needs. This leads to high utility bills. Our prompt repair services eliminate this unnecessary expense. We’ll locate and diagnose issues such as leaks and faulty parts. We also check for things like malfunctioning heating elements and valves. Once we find the cause of your water heater problems, we’ll quickly make all necessary repairs.
We can also remove sediment buildup from inside the tank. When minerals and sediment accumulate in the tank, they interfere with the heat transfer, which further reduces energy efficiency. By having your tank flushed regularly, that buildup will be kept to a minimum.
Even adjusting and calibrating the thermostat helps. It prevents the water heater from overheating or underheating. All of these repair services will keep your water heater functioning at its most efficient performance.
Schedule Routine Maintenance
An annual tune-up allows us to find and repair small issues before they turn into major problems. This proactive step ensures peak efficiency, which further reduces energy costs. It also saves you money on more expensive repairs later on, and it can extend the life span of the water heater.
You can also wrap your tank and hot water pipes in insulation made specifically for this purpose. Proper insulation reduces heat loss and saves the device from excessive heating.
Rely on Professional Installation
When it does come time to replace your water heater, we can help you find a new, energy-efficient model that’s budget-friendly. New technology is constantly improving water heaters when it comes to function and efficiency.
This is also the perfect time to upgrade to a tankless version. Tankless water heaters wait until you want hot water before heating it. This eliminates the need to keep a full tank of water hot, which can make a big difference on those monthly bills.
Don’t pay more than you have to for the convenience of hot water. Proactive maintenance, prompt repairs, and expert installation will all contribute to substantial savings on your energy bills.
