Your Hot Water System
Your hot water system is made up of two main components: the tank and the element that heats the water in the tank. Once the element heats up the water, a thermostat turns off the heating element. These components generally last about four to five years. To learn more about how hot water systems work, call me today.
Signs of an Old System
One of the most obvious signs of an old hot water system is that it is no longer producing hot water. It's usually the fault of the heating element or the thermostat. Other warning signs of a failing hot water system is the system making a rumbling noise, the thermostat stops working or the water is muddy or has a metallic smell.
Maintain Your System
It's important to maintain your hot water system so that it can last as long as possible. One recommendation is to operate the temperature and pressure relief valve. Another is to drain and flush the tank every six months. If you can't do these things on your own, call Martin Chenoweth Air Conditioning and Electrical for help.
