Water Heaters

Your water heater plays a vital role in your daily routine, from warm showers to clean dishes and laundry. However, an aging or inefficient system can lead to inconsistent temperatures, higher energy bills, and unexpected breakdowns. At Sierra Pacific Home & Comfort, Inc., we specialize in water heater installation, replacement, and maintenance, ensuring your home always has a dependable hot water supply.

Is It Time to Replace Your Water Heater?

Water heaters don’t last forever, and if yours is over 10 years old, it may be time to consider a replacement. Common signs that your water heater is failing include inconsistent water temperatures, rust-colored water, unusual noises, and leaks around the tank. If you’ve noticed any of these issues, your system may be struggling to function efficiently.

Older water heaters tend to use more energy, costing you more on utility bills. Upgrading to a new, energy-efficient model—such as a tankless water heater or a high-efficiency storage tank system—can lower energy costs while providing a more reliable supply of hot water. Tankless models, for example, heat water on demand, eliminating the need for a storage tank and reducing standby energy loss.

At Sierra Pacific Home & Comfort, Inc., we install top-tier water heaters designed for long-lasting performance. Whether you need a standard tank replacement or want to explore energy-efficient options, our experienced plumbers will help you find the best solution for your home’s needs.

The Importance of Water Heater Maintenance

Regular maintenance is key to extending the life of your water heater and preventing costly repairs. Over time, sediment buildup can accumulate in the tank, reducing efficiency and causing overheating. Flushing the tank annually removes these deposits, allowing your water heater to function at peak performance.

Other essential maintenance tasks include checking the anode rod, inspecting for leaks, and testing the pressure relief valve. If these components wear out, your water heater may be at risk of corrosion or pressure-related damage. Without proper care, a neglected water heater can fail unexpectedly, leaving you without hot water when you need it most.

At Sierra Pacific Home & Comfort, Inc., we offer professional water heater maintenance services to keep your system running smoothly. Our expert plumbers will inspect and service your unit, ensuring it operates efficiently and safely. Don’t wait for a breakdown—schedule routine maintenance and extend the life of your water heater today.
