Check for Signs of a Water Heater Leak
Water heater repairs are common in Portland. Many working parts make up a water heater and many things that can go wrong if not installed properly in the first place. Repairing water heaters for more than a decade, [company_name] has found that trouble with the following is some of the most common water heater repair requests in Portland:
- Thermostats
- Gas Control Valves
- Limit Switches
- High Water Pressure
- Pilot Light Not Staying On
- Burner Assemblies
- Galvanized Rust
- Sediment Deposit and Corrosion
- Water rapidly changes from hot to cold
- Water takes excessive time to heat
- Temperature and pressure relief valve dripping
Additionally, CPVC and galvanized pipe, while less expensive, tend to break down over time, thus causing even more water heater troubles. [company_name] replaces this PVC and galvanized water heater pipe with brass and Wirsbo. Brass and Wirsbo piping are longer lasting and far less susceptible to corrosion caused by sediment deposits.
[company_name] has found over time that these water heater repair requests are a little too common. While leaks may be patched and adjusted, they will most likely not hold indefinitely. This is why [company_name] suggests replacements when water heaters start to fail. They remind their customers that repairs are only temporary and are less cost-effective in the long run for Portland homeowners.
While water heater repairs may certainly be made to your Portland home, [company_name] likes to inform their customers of water heater, or water heater piping replacement options. Proper replacements with stronger, more durable piping, will ultimately last longer and save customers money.
