FAQ
What Types of Water Heaters Are Available?
In Lansdowne, residents can choose from a variety of water heater types, including traditional tank systems, which store a large volume of water continuously heated, and tankless systems, which heat water on demand for increased energy efficiency. Each type has its benefits, and choosing the right system depends on your household’s water usage and budget considerations. Our team can help you assess your needs and determine the best fit for your home.
How Often Should I Schedule Water Heater Maintenance?
Regular maintenance is crucial to prolong the life of your water heater and ensure it operates efficiently. We recommend scheduling a professional maintenance check at least once a year. This service includes checking the anode rod, flushing the tank to remove sediment buildup, inspecting for leaks, and testing the pressure relief valve. Consistent maintenance helps prevent costly repairs and extends the overall lifespan of your water heater.
What Should I Do If My Water Heater Stops Working?
If your water heater fails, first check to ensure power supply issues aren’t the cause. For electric heaters, confirm that the circuit breaker hasn’t tripped. For gas heaters, check if the pilot light is lit. If basic troubleshooting doesn’t resolve the issue, contact professionals at Delco Storm & Sewer Services right away. Our team is available 24/7 to provide prompt assistance and restore your hot water service efficiently.
How Do I Know If I Need to Replace My Water Heater?
Signs that your water heater may need replacement include persistent issues like inconsistent water temperature, discolored water, noise from the tank, and visible leaks. Water heaters typically last around 10-15 years; if yours is nearing this age, it might be more cost-effective to replace it rather than continuing with frequent repairs. We can assess your current system and offer recommendations based on its condition and your needs.
Are There Energy-Efficient Options for Water Heaters?
Yes, energy-efficient options, including tankless water heaters and Energy Star-rated traditional tanks, can significantly reduce your utility bills. Tankless models, for instance, only heat water as needed, which can lead to substantial energy savings. When considering an upgrade or installation, we can guide you through the choices available to ensure you select a system that balances efficiency with your budget.
