FAQ

Can water heaters explode?

Though it is not common, it is possible for a traditional tanked water heater to explode if it is not functioning properly. A build up of steam within the interior of the tank builds pressure. Too much steam can cause the pressure to go above the manufacturer recommended PSI. There are many safety features within a water heater which help minimize the risk of an explosion as long as it is installed correctly and inspected regularly to ensure these are properly functioning.

What should I do when my water heater is making a noise?

Some noise from a water heater is expected as part of normal operation. If you notice an extreme increase in the volume or frequency of noise coming from your water heater, it is best to have it inspected by a professional. This may include clanging, banging or pops.

Why should I service my water heater?

Regular maintenance on your water heater extends the life of your water heater. Service includes a thorough inspection of all components to check for corrosion and other deterioration. A plumbing professional will check that the pressure of the water heater is within the manufacturer’s specifications and that the temperature of the hot water is accurate to the settings. A full flush removes sediment build up from your water heater’s tank to keep water flowing smoothly.

Is water heater leaking dangerous?

The most immediate risk of a leaking water heater is damage to your home – standing water can cause warped floors or damage dry wall and cause mold. Additionally, a leaking water heater may be a symptom of a bigger problem within the system that could lead to a breakdown further down the line. It is important to get a leaking water heater evaluated by a professional as soon as possible.

Where to put your water heater

Water Heaters are often located in basements, utility closets, or laundry rooms.Water Heaters should be easily accessible for maintenance and repairs. You’ll need to ensure the space where your water heater is located is temperature controlled to avoid damage due to freezing. It’s best to put your water heater in a room that has water resistant flooring and, ideally, a floor drain to prevent damage from leaking. Water Heaters need to be against a wall that ties into your home’s plumbing and will also need an energy source. Most homes will have a few options for where to put the water heater, so it’s best to work with a professional Plumber or HVAC company to identify the best location.

Save Money With Regular Water Heater Maintenance

You use your water heater daily. Without regular maintenance, your unit may struggle and eventually fail. With routine maintenance, you can prevent performance issues and ensure that you have access to hot water when you need it.
