People often take their home’s hot water supply for granted… until they need water heater repair. As durable as water heaters are, the appliances can still suffer from wear and tear and malfunctions that will eventually lead to water heater repair. You can help prevent repairs with regular maintenance, but you may still need to call for technicians to assist you with the work that will restore your water heater. Hansen’s Plumbing specializes in water heater repair and all of your plumbing needs. Here are some of the most common water heater problems we come across.

Broken Dip Tube Repairs

The dip tube carries cold, fresh water from the municipal supply down through the tank of the water heater and to the bottom where the heat exchanger transfers energy from the combustion jets. As the water warms, it rises back to the top of the tank. If the dip tube breaks off, it will deposit cold water at the top of the tank, where it will mix with the heated water. A broken dip tube is the most common reason for a sudden decrease in the supply of hot water, but is also a simple job for technicians to fix.

Water Heater Burner Repair

Gas-powered water heaters can encounter problems in their burner, much like those in a gas furnace. Rust in the burner or dirt across its surface can lead to it having trouble igniting, and low gas flow or blockage in the line can also lead to a loss of heating power. As with any repair issue connected to natural gas, you should never attempt this work on your own due to the health risk involved. Only trust the job to experienced technicians.

Plenty of plumbing companies promise emergency services, but not all of them have the means to provide truly reliable work when you need an emergency plumber. Hansen’s Plumbing has been helping homeowners out of their worst plumbing jams for years. We know just how important it is to have a reliable emergency plumber. See why it’s crucial to choose a plumbing company that can really get the job done.

Saving In Emergency

There are few people who wouldn’t want to conserve their budgets whenever and wherever possible. Emergency services may not be free, but they can end up costing far less than waiting to fix the problem. A plumbing emergency in a home is only going to get worse over time. Even if that time is only the span of a few hours. To avoid everything from water damage to pipe replacement, emergency services can be the key to preventing bigger costs down the line.

Convenient Plumber

The value of running water is evident to all homeowners. The consequences may not always seem like enough to call emergency services at the time. But imagine what it’s really like to be without a working toilet or sink. The lack of hygiene can quickly become a health hazard if you’re not careful (in addition to the hassle of working around the problem). Our services are designed to get everything in running order again as quickly as possible.
