Our ServicesAt CUSI, we specialize in the installation, maintenance, and repair of water heaters. We take pride in providing high-quality services to ensure that your home always has access to hot water efficiently and safely.
Water heaters come in several types, each suited to different needs. Tank heaters store hot water for immediate use, while tankless models provide heating on demand, ensuring you never run out of hot water. Hybrid models combine traditional heating with energy-efficient technology to save costs. Specialty heaters cater to unique requirements, such as dealing with hard water or fitting into compact spaces. Each type offers different benefits to suit different household demands and preferences.
Keeping your water heater in tip-top shape can save you a lot of hassle and extend its lifespan. Here are some handy tips for water heater care:
1. Temperature Check: Set your water heater thermostat to 120°F to prevent burns and save energy.
2. Pressure Relief Valve: Test the valve at least once a year by lifting the lever and letting it snap back. This should release a burst of water into the drainpipe.
3. Drain the Tank: Sediment buildup can reduce efficiency and lead to clogs. Drain about a quarter of the tank a few times a year to remove sediment. Turn off the power and the cold water supply before doing this.
4. Anode Rod: Check the anode rod every 3-5 years. If it’s worn out, replace it to prevent tank corrosion.
5. Insulation: Insulate older water heaters and pipes to improve efficiency. However, don’t cover the top, bottom, thermostat, or burner compartment.
6. Clear the Area: Keep the area around the water heater clear for safety and efficiency.
7. Carbon Monoxide Detector: If you have a gas heater, install a carbon monoxide detector nearby for safety.
8. Annual Professional Inspection: Have a professional inspect your water heater once a year to ensure all parts are in good working order and to catch any potential problems early.
Taking these steps can help you avoid unexpected cold showers and costly repairs. If you want more detailed steps or need advice on a specific issue, feel free to ask!
