In most cases, repairing your hot water heater is a worthwhile investment. If your water heater is relatively new and the repair costs are not too high, fixing the issue can extend the life of your unit and save you money. However, if your water heater is old or requires frequent repairs, it might be time to consider a replacement. Generally, as long as the repair is affordable, it’s worth it to keep your hot water heater running efficiently.

Regular maintenance is crucial for keeping your water heater in top condition and ensuring it runs efficiently. Here are some key steps to maintain your water heater:

  • Flush the Tank: Flushing the tank to remove sediment buildup. This helps maintain efficiency and prolongs the lifespan of your water heater.
  • Check Connections: Inspect the water heater’s connections for any loose wires or pipes. Tighten any loose connections to prevent leaks and ensure safe operation.
  • Insulate the Tank: Make sure your water heater is properly insulated. This helps retain heat, reducing energy consumption and improving efficiency.
  • Inspect the Anode Rod: The anode rod helps prevent corrosion inside the tank. Check it annually and replace it if it’s significantly corroded.
  • Adjust the Temperature: Set the thermostat to 120 Fehrenheit to prevent scalding and save on energy costs. This temperature is sufficient for most households.

The lifespan of a water heater depends on the type of unit and how well it is maintained. Here’s a general guideline:

Conventional Storage-Style Water Heaters:These typically last between 8 to 10 years. Factors that influence their lifespan include the quality of the unit, the level of maintenance, and the water quality in your area.

Tankless Water Heaters: With proper care and maintenance, tankless water heaters can last up to 20 years or more. These units tend to have a longer lifespan because they don’t store water, which reduces the risk of corrosion and sediment buildup.

  • Regular Maintenance: Performing regular maintenance, such as flushing the tank and inspecting components, can significantly extend the life of your water heater.
  • Quality Installation: Ensure your water heater is installed by a professional to avoid potential issues from improper setup.
  • Water Quality: If you have hard water, consider installing a water softener. This will reduce mineral buildup in the tank.

Water heaters can experience a variety of issues over time. Here are some of the most common types of water heater repairs:

Thermostat Replacement: Faulty thermostats can cause your water heater to produce water that is too hot or too cold. Replacing a malfunctioning thermostat can restore proper temperature control.

Heating Element Replacement: If your water heater isn’t producing hot water, a broken heating element could be the culprit. Replacing the heating element can resolve this issue.

Valve Replacement: Pressure relief valves and drain valves can wear out. Replacing these valves can prevent leaks and maintain proper operation.

Tank Replacement: If the tank is corroded or leaking, it may need to be replaced entirely. Corrosion can lead to significant damage and should be addressed promptly.

Sediment Removal: Sediment buildup in the tank can reduce efficiency and cause noise. Flushing the tank regularly can help prevent this issue.

Pipe Cleaning: Hard water deposits can clog pipes, reducing water flow and efficiency. Cleaning or replacing clogged pipes can restore proper function.

We had water in our crawl space and thought we had a leak from the bathroom above. We started calling local plumbers. Main Street was the only one that answered the phone right away. The woman answering the phones was very helpful. She sent out Brandon and Gabe the same day – before any other plumber even answered our messages. They were awesome. They found it was a small fix, which they gave us a very reasonable bid on and were able to successfully complete the next day. They were nice, professional, experienced, affordable, dependable and honest. We are very happy with their work and our experience. We will definitely use Main Street plumbing again.

Grateful for them. They saved me over $7000 by solving the issue that my water filter was clogged, causing pressure issues rather than another company missing it and was going to replace my waterline on the exterior and interior of my home if they didn’t discover that it was a filter issue. Brandon was a great tech as he diagnosed the issue very quickly, explained how i could replace the filter on my own in the future, and answered all other questions I had.

Brandon arrived on time. He was very friendly and knew his trade inside and out. I called Main Street needing but not expecting same day service, so I didn’t ask for it. They responded instantly to my inquiry and asked me if this afternoon worked for me, which it did. The plumber, Brandon, was great. He showed me things about my plumbing and my house that I didn’t know, then quickly replaced our faucet which needed to be replaced. I would definitely use Main Street Plumbing again and would recommend them to anyone looking for plumbing needs. I am glad Google suggested this company when I did my search this morning. My wife is home from work now and completely pleased with the result!.
