Water Heater Leaking? Call Magic for Your Hot Water Heater Installation and Repair
How do you decide which company to call when they need a plumber, when you have a water heater leaking, need repair or need a hot water heater installation? Most often, the need for a plumber is urgent and there is no time to check references, sort through referrals or compare estimates. When the kitchen sink suddenly goes “geyser,” or the upstairs toilet is gurgling its contents all the way downstairs, homeowners are going to send out a cry for immediate help rather than a request for plumbing resumes. Most homeowners will experience that hissing swan song performed during the death of your water heater as they bleed out their thin blood water. This brings panic as well as a sudden respect for plumbers.
Hot Water Heater Installation – That is why the need for a local plumber can be one of those “windows of vulnerability” for the homeowner, which, sadly, is a “window of opportunity” for a dishonorable business. You can take a minute now to consider some things that will make that phone call a decisive act of confidence, rather than a desperate shot in the dark.
Hot Water Heater Installation – The most important consideration when choosing any plumbing when there is a water heater leaking service is “experience.” We hear that so often that it might diminish the simple truth of it, but a business that has prospered for over thirty years must be doing a good job for their customers. A plumbing business who has expertise in hot water heater installation could not flourish for three decades without repeat customers, positive referrals and a solid reputation. The longevity of our business validates our ethics, and testifies to our experience.

Hot Water Heater Installation – Our plumbers can also give you information to help mitigate the damage to your home caused by the water heater leaking that usually accompanies unwelcome water. For instance, just by informing every family member of the location and specific purpose of the various shutoff valves in your home (for water heaters, toilets, etc.) you can stop a flow before it becomes a flood. If you have teenagers that get home from school a couple of hours before Mom and Dad get off work, have a practice drill. This is helpful because there is something about, even a small amount of water spewing unexpectedly from the water heater leaking that evokes a strange giddiness, varying in degree, and inversely proportional to age.
Hot Water Heater Installation Choose the Best Brands
Hot Water Heater Installation – Magic Plumbing provides information and advice to help our customers choose from the variety of water heaters available. Gas and electric hot water heaters each offer advantages, and each come in sizes suitable for any purpose. The best choice can depend on the many factors specific to the customer, including location, budget and details of the residential or commercial application, when planning a hot water heater installation.
Hot Water Heater Installation – Tankless Water Heaters
Hot Water Heater Installation – Tankless electric water heaters continue to evolve with even greater efficiency in reducing power consumption while delivering hot water instantly. We encourage everyone shopping for hot water heater installation to include tankless electric water heaters in their consideration if a flue pipe cannot be installed. This type of system is best with careful planning, evaluating each point where water is to be tapped, and assessing the explicit type of usage planned at each location. Hot water heater installation – The service life of tankless electric or gas water heaters far out paces tank type hot water heater installation. Tankless water heaters costs less to operate, eliminates the “hot water wait and waste,” and is the most environmentally friendly of all hot water heater installation.
Longer Life for Hot Water heater Installation
Hot Water Heater Installation – By far, the easiest, least expensive thing you can do to extend the life and maximize the efficiency of water heaters is to keep them well insulated after you have had a hot water heater installation. Water heaters are not always wrapped during installation because they are already insulated internally and are located in warm basements, sometimes external insulating blankets have a tendency to get neglected and torn. Proper insulation after hot water heater installation means less electricity or gas used. A little less work each day for water heaters accumulates as a reserve for later years of service.
Hot Water Heater Installation – How Often Should You Flush?
Hot Water Heater Installation – Older water heaters should be flushed out every 12 months or so. We now offer self-cleaning units. This significant advance not only increases service life, but also boosts efficiency as it reduces maintenance many years after a hot water heater installation.
What Does The Anode Rod Do?
Hot Water Heater Installation – It takes more effort to replace an anode rod than it does to maintain proper insulation, but it makes a substantial difference in the life of water heaters. You can understand why replacing this rod is a serious advantage with a brief explanation of its function. Corrosion is going to occur within water heaters due to “galvanic action.” That corrosion effect can be “diverted” from the interior of the tank and directed to the anode rod, which has the sole purpose of being “sacrificed” in place of the walls of the tank. Once the anode rod has been sacrificed and is not replaced, the corrosion of the tank interior accelerates.
If you have a closed system, you should have an expansion tank, installed during the hot water heater installation, which can potentially double the life of water heaters. Especially if once installed the pressure relief valve leaks, it’s common with a new hot water heater installation. When water coming into your tank at 50º is heated to 120º, its volume expands by 2%. That is significant because it means another quart of volume for approximately every 12 gallons of water in your tank. This imposes an inordinate amount of pressure on tanks, causing the early failure of water heaters and stressed out systems of pipes.
Hot Water Heater Installation – If there is a high mineral content in the water (hardness of water) coming into your home or business, it could be practical to install a water treatment system. This benefits not only water heaters, but also appliances such as dishwashers, washing machines and icemakers.
