    Despite the time or day, our commitment remains the same - prompt response and quality service. Depending on your location within the Durham region, you can generally expect an emergency technician at your property within an hour of your call

  • How often should I schedule maintenance for my hot water tank?

    Regular maintenance is crucial to ensure the longevity and efficiency of your hot water tank. It is generally recommended to schedule a professional maintenance service for your hot water tank at least once a year.


    However, if you notice any signs of reduced performance such as lower temperature or discolored water, it's advisable to call us immediately for an inspection. Regular maintenance can prevent larger problems from developing and enhance the lifespan of your unit. Remember, preventive care is always more cost-effective than dealing with major repairs or replacements.


  • What are some signs that may indicate problems with my hot water tank?

    Here are some signs that you may be experiencing problems with your hot water tank:


    1. Insufficient Hot Water: If your hot water runs out quickly or isn't as hot as it should be, this could mean there's an issue with the heating elements or thermostat of your tank.


    2. Discolored or Gritty Water: Rusty, muddy, or sandy water coming from your hot water tap indicates a potential problem within your hot water tank.


    3. Odd Noises: Unusual sounds like popping, cracking, or rumbling coming from the tank can suggest a buildup of sediment at the bottom of the tank affecting its operation.


    4. Leaks: Puddles of water around your tank usually signify a leak that needs immediate attention to prevent further damage and safety hazards.


    5. Constant Need for Repairs: If you find yourself frequently calling for repairs, it might indicate an underlying issue with the tank itself which may require replacement.

       

    6. Old Age: Most tanks have a lifespan of 10-20 years. If yours is older than this and is showing signs of trouble, it might be time to consider replacing it.

       

    7. Strange Smelling Hot Water: If your hot water has a strange smell similar to rotten eggs, this could indicate bacteria contamination in the tank.


    Remember to contact a professional if you notice any of these signs to prevent further damage and ensure safe operation.
