Spring Is Here! Time for Water Heater Maintenance

Monday, April 23rd, 2018

water-heater-maintenanceThe coming of spring means spring cleaning for many households in the area, which makes now an excellent opportunity to perform maintenance on key household appliances. We don’t think much of components like our water heater, since they are very quiet when they perform their duties and are usually located in out-of-the-way parts of the home like the basement.

Monday, June 19th, 2017

pipes-valvesFor the most part, the plumbing system in your home is based around the same designs that have been in place for over a century.

Gravity is what helps move wastewater along, so the sewer pipes in your home are quite simple indeed.

However, beyond the basic concept of sewer lines and water supply pipes, plumbing has advanced a great deal over just the last couple of decades. There are new technologies in plumbing we think any homeowner should know about. That way, when the time does come to call in a plumber, you’ll know that you have someone on the job with the right tools and equipment to make your home run smoothly.

drip-drop-waterOften, we get phone calls from homeowners worried that they’ve got a major plumbing leak in the house—only to discover the problem is actually an air conditioner leak!

And can you prevent this from happening in the future? Learn more from the guide below, and call our team ASAP to fix your leaky AC unit!

An Overview of Hot Water Heaters Available Today

water-heater-tankPicking out a new water heater is not quite the same as picking out a new car. You probably won’t have a color preference for your new hot water heater, for example, but we do see some similarities. Your family’s safety comes first and foremost, so safety is a concern with a new installation just as it is with a new vehicle. Efficiencies vary from model to model, as with most cars, and different fuel sources can be used to power them (electric or gas).

Just as you wouldn’t pick the first car you saw on the lot, we think it’s worth putting some thought into which water heater you pick out for your family. Check out our guide to some of the latest technologies, and some of the classics, and talk to your plumber to find the water heater that’s right for your home!
