Hot Water Tanks

Typical hot water tanks usually hold 40-60 gallons of water, commercial tanks 100-120 gallons. The size of your tank depends on the size of the home/building and number of occupants in it.If you are a growing family your capacity need is much larger and may require a 60 gallon unit to cover everyone’s showers, laundry, and other daily needs. If you are retired empty nesters you may only need a 30 gallon tank or go tankless?

Tankless Water Heaters

Tankless water heaters are ideal for both residential and light commercial applications. They have significant fuel savings because they do not have to constantly heat and maintain 40-60 gallons of water at on-time.There are two general types of tankless units; point of use and whole home water heaters. Point of use are generally installed below sinks in bathrooms, kitchens and are typically electric. Whole home units are the size of a small carry on luggage and fueled by natural gas or propane. It is especially important when sizing any of these units, too small and it will not keep up with demand.

Hot Water Tank & Tankless Maintenance

Traditional tanks require inspection of venting, gas burner cleaning, pressure testing, and removal of sediment on the bottom of the tank. If debris is left on the bottom of the tank it will act as a blanket thus making the unit work harder to maintain temperature levels.

Hot water tank maintenance should never be performed by the home owner to prevent scalding or other accidents. Have it serviced by a trained license technician.

Tankless Water Heater Repair & Maintenance

Tankless water heaters are just like a boiler and should be inspected yearly. Flushing the unit yearly will help loosen any mineral build up inside the coil piping. Inspection of venting, ignition systems and valves can help prolong your water heaters life and save you money.
