Water Heaters – There’s no question that water heaters are one of the most important parts of a home’s plumbing system. A water heater can start leaking for a number of different reasons. It could be as simple as a pressure release valve needing to be replaced or a leak and the water supply line connection. There’s also a possibility that it is time to replace your water heater. Standard water heaters need replaced every 8 to 13 years. However in Southern California most of the water we use comes from the Colorado River which is considered hard water. Unfortunately minerals such as calcium found in hard water cause a buildup of sediment which are rests on the bottom of your water heater. When you have a large amount of sediment on the bottom of your water heater it causes your water heater to use more energy to heat the water. Additionally, that sentiment keeps an element of your water heater called an anode from doing its job and a protective glass liner in gas water heaters will fail. When that happens, the bottom of your water heater will start to leak. If your water heater starting to fail it is important to have it replaced immediately. Water heaters are under an extreme amount of pressure. A small hole can cause a catastrophic failure which will turn your water heater into a projectile. Water leaks associated with water heaters are easy for Pristine Plumbing to be able to locate and usually do not require advanced leak detection methods.
