Water heater leak
The worst water heater problems that can happen is a leaking tank. Unfortunately, once that happens, that tank is gone out of commission and needs to be replaced.
Old water heater problems
Internal damage to water heaters is caused by sediment build up. Over time sediment buildup usually occurs when water is heated and the chemical elements inside the water heater start to form along the insides of the tank and the burner, sediment formation inside the water heater will reduce the performance and efficiency of water heaters.
The flame of the burner is normally the color blue with small yellow flames on top. If that is not the color of the flame and your flame is more orange-yellow that means the tank is letting out carbon monoxide gas, which is harmful to your home and your family.
Keep your water heater in peak performance by requesting a Sam & Sons plumber to come out and inspect your water heater.
When is time to
replace your water heater?
If your water heater is eight year old or more, its efficiency will start to decline. When your old water heater performance declines it will consume more energy: Gas water heaters will consume more gas, electric water heaters will consume more power because they overwork in order to keep the water temperature as set.
A decline in water heater efficiency means higher gas and electric bills to you.
You shouldn’t wait until your water heater stops working to get a new on, because you don’t want to run out of hot water when you need it the most. A new efficient water heater will save you money on your energy bills.
In average, 25% of your house hold energy is consumed by water heaters and if you do not maintain them or inspect that number will rise and that means more money coming out of your pocket, so give us a call, our plumbers will be happy to help.
