Is Your Water Heater Leaking?

If you see any signs of your hot water heater leaking, it’s critical to call us right away so we can assess the situation and make the necessary repairs.

There are countless reasons why you may need hot water heater service. One possibility is that the pressure relief valve has failed. This valve is designed to release pressure if the temperature gets too high, so if it’s not working properly, this increase in pressure can cause your water heater to leak.

Another possibility is that the tank itself has developed a leak. This is most likely to happen if the tank is old or if it has been damaged—developing rust or other corrosion that can lead to cracks and leaks. If you suspect that your tank has a crack and is leaking, it’s critical to call for a new water heater installation right away.

Finally, it’s also possible that one of the pipes leading to or from your water heater is leaking. If you think this might be the case, you should shut off the water to your heater and call for hot water heater service from Dilling Heating & Cooling.

We’ll locate the source of the leak and make the necessary repairs to get your hot water heater back up and running as soon as possible. In the meantime, there are a few things you can do to minimize water damage:

Why You May Need Hot Water Heater Installation

At Dilling Heating & Cooling, we are frequently asked whether it is time for a new hot water heater. Here are a few signs that you may need to call us for water heater installation:

You Have an Older Water Heater

If your water heater is more than 10 years old, it may be time for a new one. Even if your water heater is still working, it may not be as efficient as a newer model. Newer models are designed to be more energy-efficient, which means they will cost less to operate.

There Are Signs of Leaks or Corrosion

If you see any signs of leaks or corrosion on your water heater, it is definitely time to replace it. These signs can include water pooling around the base of the unit, rust on the exterior of the unit, or dripping from pipes or fittings.

Your Water Heater Makes Strange Noises

If your water heater begins making strange noises, it could be a sign that sediment has built up in the tank. This can cause damage to the unit and shorten its lifespan. If you hear popping, banging, or gurgling coming from your water heater, call us for hot water heater installation right away.

If your water heater is more than 10 years old, is making strange noises, or showing signs of leaks or corrosion, call Dilling Heating & Cooling for hot water heater service today! We will help you choose the best unit for your needs and budget and install it safely—right away.

Water Heater Maintenance Can Extend the Life of Your Unit

At Dilling Heating & Cooling, we want our customers to get the most out of their investment. With a little bit of water heater maintenance, you can extend the life of your unit and avoid costly repairs down the road!

Check the temperature regularly. The water in your tank should be set to 120 degrees Fahrenheit. This is hot enough to kill bacteria but not so hot that it will scald you when you turn on the tap. Use an appliance thermometer to check the water temperature periodically, and adjust the settings as necessary.
Drain the tank once a year. This helps remove sediment that can build up over time and cause your unit to work harder than it needs to. Simply attach a garden hose to the drain valve at the bottom of your tank and open it up, allowing the water to run until it's clear. Then, close the valve and turn on the cold water supply to refill the tank.
Insulate Your Tank. An insulated tank will help keep heat from escaping, which means your unit won't have to work as hard (and use as much energy) to maintain the water temperature. You can find pre-cut insulation jackets at most hardware stores, or you can wrap your own jacket around the tank using fiberglass insulation and duct tape. Be sure to leave a few inches between the insulation and the tank walls so that air can circulate properly.
