Repair or Replace…That is the Question.

When your home’s water heater starts to go bad, the question abounds…should you have it repaired or replaced? A water heater in a Chattanooga home that receives regular maintenance and prompt repairs when necessary can last for many years. That is the first priority of All Home Plumbing of Chattanooga.

Here are things to know when your water heater is about to “give up the ghost” – 

 

1. Age is a huge factor.

2. There is a lower and lower volume of hot water.

3. Are your heating bills going up?

4. Corrosion is clearly visible around the base.

5. There is a reddish, discolored tint to the water.

The plumbers at All Home Plumbing in Chattanooga are trained to know when to repair and when to replace. The important thing is that they will not try to sell you a new unit unless it is absolutely necessary! If your water heater is about a decade old, and is acting up, call All Home Plumbing at (423) 598-1466. For more information see allhomeplumbing.com.
