Water heaters are integral to any household or business, providing heated water for tasks like bathing and washing dishes. Unfortunately, like any mechanical system, water heaters will eventually need repairs or replacement. When you believe you need a water heater repair, contact Mr. Rooter Plumbing, and we can help you make an informed decision.
If you have problems with your water heater, such as insufficient heat, leaks, or strange noises, it may be worth having it repaired. Water heater repair in Franklin Park can be an economical solution for minor issues and will extend its lifespan. Common repairs include replacing the heating element, fixing a leaking valve, or replacing a malfunctioning thermostat.
One of the advantages of water heater repair is that it typically costs less than replacement and can be completed quickly, giving you hot water again within hours. If your water heater has been around for more than ten years and is experiencing multiple issues, replacement may be preferable to repair.
If your water heater is beyond repair or nearing the end of its lifespan, replacement may be necessary. Although replacement may be more expensive in the short term than repair, it offers long-term advantages like improved energy efficiency and lower utility bills. Furthermore, newer water heaters often come with warranties and provide reliable service for many years into the future.
One major factor is its age; if it has been operating for over ten years and experiencing issues, replacement may be necessary. Furthermore, if multiple repairs have already been attempted on the heater, replacing it could prove more cost-effective in the long run.
Another factor to consider is the type of water heater you own. If your current model is traditional tank-style, consider upgrading to a tankless heater as they are more energy-efficient and offer an endless hot water supply - making them a popular option among many homeowners.
When opting to repair or replace your water heater, you must select a qualified plumber with experience and expertise. At Mr. Rooter Plumbing, our licensed and insured plumbers possess both these traits and possess all of the knowledge and tools needed for any type of water heater issue - from minor fixes to complete replacements.
Mr. Rooter Plumbing offers competitive prices for water heater services and products, so you can be assured of receiving top-notch work at an unbeatable value. Plus, our work is backed by our guarantee - so you can rest assured knowing your heater will be repaired or replaced to your complete satisfaction.
Deciding whether or not to repair or replace your water heater is best made with professional assistance from Mr. Rooter Plumbing. Repair may be cost-effective for minor issues; however, replacement may be necessary if it has reached the end of its usefulness or beyond repair. By choosing Mr. Rooter Plumbing as your plumber, you can rest assured that your hot water heater will receive expert care and ensure reliable hot water for years.
