5 signs that you needwater heater replacement

Old Age

Your water heater is made to last anywhere from 6 to 10 years. If your water heater is in this age range (even if you’re not experiencing any problems) it’s a good time to start looking into your options for replacement. If your water heater is older than the age of 10 and you’ve haven’t been diligent about flushing the water heater every year, it’s likely that you’ll have to replace it soon.

Not Enough Hot Water

Does your shower run out of hot water each time you’re in it? It’s time to replace your water heater! A lack of hot water isn’t something that you have to work around. Sediment builds up over time in hot water heaters which separates the heat source and takes up space in the system.

Odd Noises

If there’s sediment build up in your hot water heater, overtime this sediment hardens and takes up space in your water heater. This extra space makes it much harder for your water heater to heat your water supply and over time it causes leaking, cracking, or holes within your system.

Rusty Water

If you’ve noticed that your hot water is rusty it’s a sign that your water heater is rusting on the inside and could start to leak soon. This is a big sign that it’s time to replace your water heater. If this is happening to your system, you should contact a professional from our team as soon as possible.

Leaks

If your water heater is old or leaks are common, it’s time to replace. You need a professional to look at your system if you’re experiencing problems to ensure that it’s coming from the water heater itself and not another part of your system. If the leak originates from one of the fittings or connections, you’ll still experience problems even with a new water heater.

frequently asked questions

How quickly should I expect drain cleaning service for a clog?

Some drain cleaning companies make promises they cannot fulfill, such as service in one hour or less. The timeliness of the sewer cleaning service provided depends on a number of factors. The size of the sewer cleaning company, the area they service, and their in-house infrastructure, are just some factors that determine the response time. A reputable drain cleaning company should be able to provide an accurate response time to within a half an hour. If delays occur, advanced notice provided to the client is the industry norm. Most service should be able to be provided in one to two hours. This accounts for travel time as well. You would always verify that you are in the drain company’s service area.

What should I expect to pay for sewer and water main cleaning?

Often an exact price is only determined once the nature, and the extent of the problem is diagnosed. However, be forewarned that many firms are reluctant to give a price, and have various contingencies in place in order to change the price after it is quoted. You should expect to pay what you were quoted with any changes mutually approved. Unless some obvious and unforeseen condition exists, the price should remain intact. If addition equipment is needed, or the reported condition changes, it may be reasonable to expect a change in the quoted price. If you hear the technician saying things such as “I need the big machine”, or “It is further out than what I thought”, it may be one of those times.

How do I deal with tree roots in a drain line?

If tree roots are present in a drain line, it is imperative to take action prior to having a complete blockage. Once the water stops flowing in a pipe, many products can no longer be used. Copper sulfate and the product Root-X are commonly used to kill roots inside a drain pipe. However, they only work if there is a flow of water. Once completely blocked by roots a drain cleaning machine can frequently open the pipe up on a temporary basis. Future cleanings will be needed, and a possible sewer repair or replacement may be inevitable. Once roots are present, it is almost impossible for a sewer cleaning machine to cut them all out, or for the roots to not grow in again.

Can I prevent clogged drain lines?

There are various ways to help prevent clogged drain lines. They range from common-sense steps like not putting grease, excessive soap, or food down the drain. To placing a strainer on the end of a washing machine drain hose to catch lint and other objects. Placing a strainer on bathtub and shower drains is also a good idea. Catching hair and other objects before they go down your drain will prevent the need for frequent drain cleaning.

When should I repair or replace a drain or sewer line?

There are obvious times when a drain or sewer line should be repaired or replaced. One instance, of course, is when the line cannot be cleaned. If heavy and extensive root infiltration exists if should be replaced. Extensive root growth is indicative of the failure of the entire line. If a backpitch of the line exists, an extensive section of the run of pipe typically has to be replaced to have the correct pitch. Other conditions make the decision to repair or replace a sewer pipe much more difficult. One of the factors is strictly personal. Some people only have to live through one or two clogs to decide to replace the sewer line. Other people will suffer through years of stoppages, and thousands of dollars in drain cleaning bills, before they agree to do repair work. It is fair to say that if a skilled drain technician needs to spend many hours to clear out a stoppage, that means something is structurally wrong with the drain line. In those cases, a video camera inspection can go a long way in determining your next appropriate step.
