No Hot Water? We can diagnose and fix your water heater problem. There are a variety of problems with hot water heaters that can be fixed at a significant savings to replacing the water heater. If your water heater is relatively young, then repair may be the best option. Sometimes water heaters stop working because of pilot light or igniter failures or broken heating elements. And even when there is a water leak, it isn’t always from the tank. Sometimes the water is leaking because of a faulty drain valve or temperature/pressure relief valve.
Every water heater will reach an age when repairing it is either impossible or no longer makes sense financially. When this happens, it is time to replace your water heater.
Signs that your water heater likely needs replacement instead of repair:
Every home has different needs when it comes to hot water. The more people or bathrooms in your home, the more hot water you are going to need. We’ll help you figure out the right size hot water heater you need and whether to stick with a traditional tank water heater or move to a tankless water heater.
New government regulations went into effect on water heaters in April 2015, which mandate increased energy efficiency for water heaters. The result is that installation may be more complicated than in the past. Tank-style water heater sizes have changed, as have some of the requirements for how they are installed. We may need to visit your home to determine whether your new water heater will fit properly, or if additional work will need to be done prior to installation. The changes also mean that for larger homes, installation of a tankless water heater may make more sense than simply replacing your tank-style heater.
E&E Plumbing installs energy-efficient, low-maintenance tankless water heaters. Tankless water heaters save energy by only heating the water as you use it, rather than storing gallons and gallons of hot water just in case you turn on the hot water. But the reason many people like tankless water heaters is because you don’t have to worry about running out of hot water. With a tankless water heater, the amount of hot water you use in an hour isn’t limited to how much your water heater holds. And tankless water heaters have a much longer life expectancy than traditional water heaters, so the average family won’t even live in the house long enough to need to change the water heater again.

Tankless water heaters are designed to last a long time, but that doesn’t mean you won’t run into any problems.
When a tankless water heater shows signs that it needs service, contact us to diagnose and repair the system. You can also learn more about the common problems we run into with tankless water heaters.
Tankless water heaters use a different technology to heat your water, but they can still run into one of the same problems as traditional tank-type heaters. Scale build up inside the water heater can cripple a tankless water heater just like it can a tank-style water heater. The hardness of your water will determine exactly how often you need a routine cleaning for your tankless water heater. We recommend a flush and clean on your tankless water heater about once per year to keep it working the best it can. Scheduling your maintenance makes your life a lot easier since you won’t be caught off guard when the water heater alerts you to a problem and stops working.
