Tank vs. Tankless Water Heaters

When you are replacing or installing a water heater in your Orlando home, you have a few options to choose from. The two most common types of water heaters we install are traditional tank units and tankless units. So which is the better choice for your home or business?

We may recommend a tankless unit for you if energy efficiency is one of your highest priorities. Tankless units are also often better suited for smaller properties.

The benefits of tankless water heaters include:

• Energy efficiency: Only use energy when you need hot water
• Longer lifespan: No tank buildup, low maintenance
• Instant, unlimited hot water: You’re not limited by tank capacity
• Save on space: Tankless units are smaller and can be mounted most places in the home or office

Meanwhile, convention tank water heaters are still a great choice for certain home and business owners. It all depends on the size of their Orlando property and their hot water needs.

The benefits of conventional water heaters include:

• Lower cost up front than tankless
• Smaller power requirements – can even use solar power
• Can use recirculation applications

How to Tell if you Need Water Heater Repair

Just like anything else in your home, your water heater will eventually break down. Before you have to deal with a costly replacement, there are signs you can look for to know when to call your local plumber in Orlando.

Some common signs you need water heater repair include:

• Lack of hot water - If you're not getting enough hot water, then it might be time to upgrade to a bigger tank but if your hot water is taking longer than expected it could be a sign for water heater repair.
• Rust-colored water - If all your water has this discoloration to it, then you've got rusty pipes but if only your hot water then it's probably coming from your water heater. The anode rod is supposed to attract rusting elements and likely needs to be replaced.
• Water with a foul smell - If your water smells or tastes off, call in our Orlando water heater repair team. There could have been mineral build up and it needs a cleaning or perhaps the inner coating of the tank is starting to peel and contaminate your water.
• Strange noises coming from the unit - Not all sounds are the same, snapping and popping sounds mean there's been sediment build up and you need a good cleaning, but rumbling or grinding could be the sign of something worse.
• Leaks - Not all leaks are the same, lines can be replaced or patched fairly easily but a leak in your tank could be an indication that you need water heater replacement.

If you’re plagued by any of these problems, call our plumbers today. We’ll fix the problem right away! To prevent future repairs, ServiceOne Air Conditioning & Plumbing also offers a maintenance program to keep your water heater in its best shape. A full inspection will diagnose any small problems before they become larger plumbing issues.
