Having hot water is a necessity in modern homes, with washing dishes and clothes and taking showers or baths requiring heated water. Your water heater works hard and, if it’s not properly cared for or faces a failure, you will quickly notice the issue.
At Plumbing Paramedics, we provide fast and friendly water heater repair and replacement services whenever you need them, including 24/7.
We offer water heater repair and replacement in the following areas:
If your water heater is experiencing frequent breakdowns, producing inconsistent temperatures or if it’s over 10-15 years old, it might be time for a replacement. Other signs include leaking, discolored water or rising energy bills due to inefficiency.
On average, a traditional tank water heater lasts between 10 to 15 years, while tankless models can last up to 20 years with proper maintenance. Regular service can extend the lifespan of your water heater.
A traditional water heater stores hot water in a tank, while a tankless water heater heats water on demand, providing an endless supply of hot water. Tankless units are more energy-efficient but can require a higher upfront investment.
Yes, tankless water heaters can be worth the investment for many homeowners. They provide endless hot water, reduce energy consumption and save space. However, the initial cost is higher than traditional units, and installation may require some modifications to your plumbing.
We recommend scheduling maintenance once a year to ensure your water heater operates efficiently. Regular maintenance can help prevent issues such as sediment buildup, leaks and energy waste.
Banging, popping or rumbling sounds often indicate sediment buildup in the tank, which can reduce efficiency and cause damage over time. Flushing the tank can help, but if the noise persists, it may be time for a repair or replacement.
If you notice water pooling around your water heater, it’s important to act quickly. Shut off the power and water supply to the unit, and call a professional immediately to avoid further damage or risk of flooding.
While some minor issues can be addressed by homeowners, water heaters are complex systems that require specialized knowledge for safe and effective repairs. It’s best to contact a licensed technician to ensure the repair is done correctly and safely.
The cost of repair or replacement can vary depending on the issue, type of water heater and your location. Typically, repairs are more affordable than replacements, but we offer free quotes and competitive pricing to ensure you get the best value.
