The Most Common Issues We Find in Rochester Water Heaters
Everything from the type of water heater you own to the way that your business uses it will determine how likely you are to experience certain issues. For example, older systems are more likely to experience issues resulting from corrosion and worn parts, and if you operate around the clock and constantly stress your heater, you’ll also notice more issues than a business that uses it infrequently.
Here are some of the most common problems that we encounter in Rochester’s commercial water heaters:
A Failed Heating Element
The failure of a heating element can trip circuit breakers and may mean you have no hot water or only room temperature water. Fortunately, it’s a common problem, and one that we regularly encounter and repair.
Malfunctions in the Thermostat
Thermostats can malfunction as a result of electrical surges or simple wear and tear, and may lead to inconsistent temperatures and even no hot water.
A Buildup of Sediment
As water moves through your system, minerals like calcium and magnesium can separate and build up. You may notice a reduction in energy efficiency, with other signs including rumbling noises or complete component failure.
Corrosion
High temperatures and hard water can accelerate corrosion inside your unit. Pipe connections and the anode rod are the most commonly affected parts, but you may also notice corrosion in the tank itself.
How We Repair Commercial Water Heaters
Whether we’re conducting commercial water heater maintenance, inspections, or diagnostics, we’ll always begin with a thorough assessment of the unit. Our technicians look for corroded or malfunctioning parts, which they can then replace with new parts, as well as leaks, which they will then patch.
They can flush the tank to improve functionality, and after conducting a repair, they will always run through several system tests to ensure that everything is fully operational.
If you’re unhappy with our work for whatever reason, just give us a call. We abide by the Neighborly Done Right Promise®, so if the customer isn’t happy, then the job isn’t over, and we’ll return to put things right.
Why You Should Trust the Professionals for Commercial Hot Water Repair
If you have an issue, call a commercial plumbing contractor in Rochester. It’s not something you can diagnose or fix yourself. You may misdiagnose the issue, leading you to believe that the unit is completely broken and needs to be replaced when you just didn’t find the real fault. You may install the wrong parts or create more problems, and as your business needs a reliable hot water supply, you’re jeopardizing your operations by trying to do it yourself.
By turning to the professionals, you’ll have reliable hot water when you need it, and should also see an improvement in energy efficiency. What’s more, with regular flushing and maintenance, you can greatly prolong the lifespan of your unit, thus saving you a lot of money in the long term and reducing disruptions and downtime.
