Water Heater Services FAQs

If you have questions about Plumbing Squad’s top-notch water heater services, you might find the answers right here. It’s likely that others have had similar queries, and we’ve provided the solutions below.

What is involved in water heater installation?

Water heater installation involves setting up a new water heater in your home or business, which can be installed in a new location or replace an existing unit. This process includes selecting the right type of water heater based on your needs, such as tankless, electric, or gas models. Our technicians will help you determine the optimal location for installation, ensure it is properly connected to your plumbing and electrical systems, and confirm that it operates efficiently and safely. Whether it’s a new addition or a replacement, our professional installation guarantees that your water heater meets all local code requirements and your personal needs for hot water capacity and energy efficiency.

How often should my water heater be serviced?

We recommend servicing your water heater at least once a year to ensure it operates efficiently and to extend its lifespan. For traditional tank water heaters, a service visit typically includes inspecting the anode rod, checking for leaks, and flushing the tank to remove sediment.

For tankless water heaters, maintenance focuses on checking for scale build-up, ensuring the burner is clean and operating efficiently, and inspecting all the components for any signs of wear or damage. Regular maintenance for both types of water heaters can prevent unexpected breakdowns and maintain optimal performance.

What are the signs that my water heater needs repair?

Common signs that your water heater may need repairs include water that isn’t as hot as usual, strange noises coming from the tank, discolored water, leaks around the base of the heater, and an increase in your utility bills. If you notice any of these symptoms, it’s wise to call us to diagnose and fix the issue.

Can I install a new water heater by myself?

While some homeowners may consider DIY installation, it’s generally best to have a professional handle it. Water heaters involve complex connections to gas or electrical systems and require adherence to specific safety and building codes. Professional installation ensures that your unit is installed safely and efficiently, with minimal risk of errors and potential hazards.

What are the benefits of switching to a tankless water heater?

Tankless water heaters offer several advantages over traditional tank models. They are more energy-efficient, as they only heat water on demand rather than maintaining a large tank of hot water. This can lead to lower energy bills. They also take up less space and can provide a virtually unlimited supply of hot water, making them ideal for families with higher hot water needs.

What size water heater do I need for my home?

The size of the water heater you need depends on the number of people in your household and your peak water usage. A general rule of thumb is 30-40 gallons for 1-2 people, 40-50 gallons for 3-4 people, and 50-80 gallons for 5 or more people. Tankless water heaters are sized based on the flow rate of water (gallons per minute) they need to produce.

Can water heaters affect my home’s water pressure?

Yes, water heaters can affect water pressure if they are not properly installed or if there is a buildup of sediment in the tank. Tankless water heaters may also affect flow rate if they are undersized for your home’s water usage.

What are the signs that I need to replace my water heater instead of repairing it?

Signs that you might need to replace your water heater include frequent breakdowns, leaks around the base of the tank, inefficient heating, rust-colored water, and if the unit is beyond its typical lifespan.
