Largo Water Heater Repair & Installation Services

Pinellas County’s Top Choice for Water Heater Services

When you are looking to have a brand new water heater installed in your home, or if you want to repair or replace a system that is a few years old, our dedicated technicians at McGill Plumbing & Water Treatment, Inc. are ready to help.

How Long Do Water Heaters Last?

The average lifespan of a water heater in Pinellas County is between 8 to 10 years due to the hard water we have here in the area. If you have a water softener in your home or condo then the average increases, generally between 10 to 12 years or longer. Again, these are averages but they are situations that we find to be the most common. Without having a water softener, a gradual buildup of mineral deposits develop on the inside of the water heater tank and its components. These deposits, in turn, directly affect the efficiency of the water heater, making it liable to break down at a much faster rate.

Water Heater Repair in Largo

If your water heater is acting up, it is sure to be a great inconvenience. No one enjoys a sudden icy downpour when they are in the midst of taking a hot shower after a long day. However, you may also be worried about whether you need to pay for an expensive replacement for your heater. The good news is that in many cases, our skilled Largo water heater repair team can make excellent, less costly repairs, especially if you contact us right away before the problem develops into a larger issue.

Our water heater experts can resolve a number of common problems, including:

• Valve leaks
• Loss of hot water
• Lukewarm water
• Discolored water
• Bad-smelling hot water
• Thermostat malfunctions
• Unusual noises
• And more

If there is a small leak from gradual erosion, we can rapidly repair it before the escaping water causes more damage. We can also replace any small valves, supply hoses, or other parts instead of uprooting the entire system.

Why Is My Water Heater Not Producing Hot Water?

There could be several reasons why your water heater is not producing hot water:

• Pilot Light Check: If you're using a gas water heater, verify whether the pilot light is ignited. If it's not, refer to the manufacturer's instructions to relight it safely. If you're uncertain, seek professional assistance.
• Thermostat Verification: Confirm the thermostat settings on your water heater. Occasionally, they may be inadvertently adjusted or set to vacation mode.
• Electrical Inspection: For electric water heaters, ensure that the circuit breaker hasn't tripped. Reset it if necessary. If the issue persists, there might be a wiring problem that requires professional intervention.
• Sediment Examination: Sediment buildup at the tank's bottom can decrease the heater's efficiency. Flushing the tank can alleviate this issue.
• Heating Element Assessment: Electric heaters contain elements that can deteriorate over time. If so, replacing the heating element may be necessary.
• Thermostat Evaluation: A malfunctioning thermostat can impede proper heating. Professional assistance may be needed to replace it.
• Tank Size Consideration: If you frequently run out of hot water, your tank might be too small for your needs. Consider upgrading to a larger tank or switching to a tankless water heater.

If you're uncomfortable troubleshooting or repairing your water heater, it's prudent to contact a licensed plumber or HVAC technician. Attempting repairs on your own could be risky and may void warranties.

Tankless Water Heater Installation—Upgrade Today!

Tankless water heaters are taking the plumbing world by storm and are a fantastic upgrade for Pinellas County homes. Offering a number of benefits over traditional storage tank water heaters, tankless water heaters can help you save money while you enjoy an endless supply of hot water. We install and service both gas and electric tankless water heaters in Largo, Clearwater, and surrounding areas.

Why consider installing a tankless water heater?

• Compact size. Because tankless water heaters don't need to store 40-80 gallons of water at a time, they are a more space-friendly option. Tankless water heaters can be conveniently wall-mounted so you have more floor space in your garage or utility closet.
• Better energy efficiency. Whereas conventional tank water heaters need to constantly keep a large tank of water heated until it's ready to be used, tankless models only heat water when it is needed, providing you with savings on your energy bill.
• Hot water on demand. You'll never run out of hot water with a tankless water heater. When you turn the hot water tap on, your tankless water heater will begin producing hot water and will keep running until the hot water tap is closed.
• Longer lifespan. Tankless water heaters can last significantly longer than tank water heaters—up to 20 years on average vs. 8-12 years.

Upgrade to a Tankless Water Heater

If you're looking to upgrade your water heater to a more efficient and space-saving option, consider a tankless water heater. Tankless water heaters provide hot water on demand, eliminating the need for a bulky storage tank. This can result in energy savings, reduced water waste, and a longer lifespan for your water heating system.

Benefits of tankless water heaters include:

• Endless hot water supply
• Energy efficiency
• Space-saving design
• Lower utility bills
• Reduced risk of leaks and water damage

Our team at McGill Plumbing & Water Treatment, Inc. can help you explore the benefits of tankless water heaters and provide expert installation services. Upgrade to a tankless water heater today for a more efficient and reliable hot water solution.
