Our Water Heater Service Process

At Verdugo Plumbing, we take pride in ensuring that our water heater service process is thorough and effective, providing you with a reliable and long-lasting solution. Water heater work requires precision and expertise. Here’s how our licensed plumbers meticulously handle your water heater needs, step by step:

Step 1: Initial Assessment and Planning

Before we begin any work, we conduct a detailed assessment to understand your specific needs, whether it’s a new installation, a repair, or routine maintenance. We help you choose the right unit for your home, whether it’s a traditional tank or a high-efficiency tankless model, based on your hot water usage and budget.

Step 2: Securing Permits and Equipment

For new installations or significant repairs, we handle all necessary permits to ensure the work is up to code and compliant with local regulations. We also select and prepare the appropriate materials and equipment, ensuring the highest standards of safety and quality.

Step 3: Installation or Repair

Our skilled technicians perform the work, whether it’s installing a new unit, replacing an old one, or repairing a malfunction. We work carefully to ensure all connections—including gas, water, and venting—are secure and the system is installed correctly for optimal performance and safety.

Step 4: Safety and Performance Testing

After installation or repair is complete, we perform a final inspection and a comprehensive performance test. This crucial step confirms that the unit is working correctly, is free of leaks, and is heating water to the proper temperature. We don't consider the job done until we have verified the integrity and efficiency of the water heater.

Warning Signs You Need Water Heater Service

Addressing water heater issues quickly is vital to avoid a sudden lack of hot water or a potential leak. Look out for these tell-tale signs that you need to schedule a water heater service with our professional plumbers:

• No Hot Water: The most obvious sign is a complete lack of hot water. This could be due to a faulty pilot light, a heating element failure, or a gas supply issue.

• Inconsistent Water Temperature: If your hot water is lukewarm or runs out quickly, it could signal a problem with the heating elements, a sediment buildup in the tank, or a malfunctioning thermostat.

• Leaks Around the Unit: Puddles of water or rust stains near your water heater indicate a leak, which can lead to significant water damage if not addressed promptly.

• Strange Noises: Popping, rumbling, or gurgling sounds from a tank water heater often mean there is sediment buildup at the bottom of the tank, which can reduce efficiency and lead to damage.

• Discolored or Smelly Water: Water with a rusty or metallic color, or a sulfur-like odor, could be a sign of internal corrosion in the tank or a bacterial issue.

If you recognize these warning signs, it's time to call in the specialists. Our dedicated plumbers are experts in water heater work, equipped to provide a comprehensive solution to your hot water needs.

Frequently Asked Questions

• What is the difference between a tank and tankless water heater?

  A traditional tank water heater stores and heats a large amount of water, while a tankless water heater heats water on demand as it flows through the unit. Tankless models are more energy-efficient and take up less space.

• How long does a water heater last?

  On average, a traditional tank water heater lasts 10-15 years, while a tankless water heater can last 20 years or more with proper maintenance.

• Why does my water heater make a rumbling noise?

  This is often caused by sediment buildup at the bottom of the tank. As the water heats up, it traps air within the sediment, causing the rumbling sound. This reduces the unit's efficiency and can shorten its lifespan.

• How often should I have my water heater serviced?

• Regular maintenance, such as flushing the tank to remove sediment, is recommended annually to ensure efficiency and prolong the life of the unit.
