Water Heaters
Water heaters help to provide warm water for bathing, cleaning, food preparation, and other aspects of personal hygiene. As the water comes through the pipes into your home, it is usually cool during the warmer times of year and very cold when the temperature dips in the winter months. The water heater has a heating element that warms up the water before it goes through the faucets or into appliances. There are many different options of water heaters. Larger models are typically needed in bigger homes or in those with many family members using the showers, sinks, and appliances.
Water heaters are usually made of metal and have cylindrical drums that store the warm water. Tankless water heaters are becoming more popular throughout the county, since they require much less storage space and use up to 50 percent less energy to heat water as needed. These types of water heaters are usually more expensive at the time of installation, but the cost of operation goes down due to the lessened energy usage.

Tankless Water Heater vs Hot Water Tank
Here at Radin we know just how difficult your life becomes when you don’t have access to hot water. You probably don’t even think too much about where that hot water really comes from until your water heater breaks down and throws a real wrench in your day.

​
Many people look forward to a warm shower or bath each morning to prepare for the day ahead. Without a working water heater, you won’t be able to bathe, clean, or run many of your appliances. There are a few common signs that indicate you might need water heater repair in the near future. One of the major ones is if the water heater stops producing warm water. If you turn on your faucet and only cold water comes out, try the faucets in a couple of other rooms in different areas of the home. If none of them are working properly, it is probably an issue with your water heater. If you are looking to Replacement or Repair your Hot Water Heater, call us at Radin for more information on water heater repair.
​
Another indicator of a problem with the unit is any kind of unusual noise coming from the water heater. Creaking, banging, thumping, popping or whining noises are certainly not normal, so if you do hear anything like this, you may need to have your water heater repaired.
​

Water heaters are some of the most highly utilized appliances within residential properties. Not only do we rely on the hot water to bathe and wash our hands, but we also need it for running the washing machine, dishwasher, and meal preparation. Most water heater manufacturers recommend replacing units at least every 10-15 years. You might get some warning signs before your water heater stops working, such as strange odours or sounds coming from the unit. Unfortunately, many homeowners experience leaking water heaters when they give out, which can cause a lot of damage very quickly.
If you notice any wet spots on the floor around your water heater, it is important to have it checked out as soon as possible to prevent more serious damage.

With a tankless water heater, you can enjoy many of the benefits that come along with it. These benefits range from decreased energy usage to less space being taken up by your water heater. One way to keep your investment in good condition is to schedule regular water heater maintenance. Not all plumbing companies are familiar with tankless water heaters, but our team at Andrew’s Heating & Air Conditioning has a lot of experience with these units. Because of this, we provide water heater maintenance services designed to clean out mineral deposits and check all components of the system for signs of problems. This can help prevent bigger issues down the road, which can often lead to the water heater going out completely. Avoid this by calling us to schedule an appointment for water heater maintenance.

If your water heater has excessive buildup of deposits, this often causes the burner to operate at a higher temperature to accommodate for the extra materials. It will end up using more energy and costing you more to operate, so an annual maintenance service is well worth the minimal cost. The water heater maintenance process also involves flushing the system to allow for easier removal of the deposits, along with the use of descaling materials that will leave your water heater operating like new again.
