Water Heater Repair
What You Can Expect with Aire Serv of Jefferson City
Whether your business has one water heater or many, Aire Serv will ensure every single one is operating at full capacity when we stop by for a repair appointment. Here are the steps we typically take:
Initial Assessment and Diagnosis:
- The appointment will begin with an assessment of the overall condition of each water heater system. We will need to know about any specific issues that have been noticed, such as leaks, inadequate heating, or unusual noises. Each water heater will be inspected individually to identify the source of the problem. This may involve checking components like thermostats, heating elements, pressure relief valves, and electrical connections.
Repair Recommendations:
- Based on the diagnosis, we will review the repair options and give the pricing upfront. If we think a replacement would be more cost-effective, we will also review that as an option.
Repair Work:
- Once we have been given the green light, we will proceed with the necessary repairs. This might include replacing heating elements, fixing leaks, adjusting thermostat settings, or replacing faulty valves. We always ensure all repairs meet safety and compliance standards, which are especially important in commercial settings.
Testing and Calibration:
- After repairs have been completed, we will test each water heater to ensure they all function correctly. This involves checking temperature settings, water pressure, and overall performance. If needed we will perform calibration of thermostats and temperature sensors to ensure accurate temperature control and energy efficiency.
Documentation and Recommendations:
- Aire Serv always provides documentation of the work performed, including details of any replaced parts, repairs made, and the overall condition of the systems.
- They may offer recommendations for ongoing maintenance to extend the lifespan of the water heaters and prevent future issues.
Common Water Heater Problems
Commercial water heaters can face issues fairly often due to their heavy usage and the complexity of their systems, especially when compared to residential water heaters. While they can be more prone to issues compared to residential units, regular maintenance, water quality management, and prompt repair of any identified problems can help mitigate these issues and extend the lifespan of the equipment.
If you encounter any of the above issues with your commercial water heaters, give us a call for a thorough inspection and repair. If you are facing an emergency with your commercial water heater, contact us anytime for rapid service.
Water Heater Installation
Upgrade to an Energy Efficient Tankless Water Heater
Upgrading to a tankless water heating system can bring several benefits to your business. When you’re ready to make the switch to more energy-efficient water heaters, get in touch with Aire Serv!
Energy Efficiency: Tankless water heaters only heat water when it’s needed, unlike traditional tanks that continuously heat water to maintain a set temperature. This on-demand heating can result in significant energy savings, especially in businesses with fluctuating hot water demand.
Space Savings: Tankless water heaters are typically much smaller than traditional tanks, freeing up valuable floor space in commercial settings where space is at a premium.
Continuous Hot Water: Tankless heaters can provide a continuous supply of hot water, which can be beneficial for businesses with high hot water usage. They won’t run out of hot water like they might with a tank system!
Longer Lifespan: Tankless water heaters often have a longer lifespan than traditional tanks, potentially lasting 20 years or more with proper maintenance, compared to 10-15 years for tanks.
Reduced Maintenance: Tankless heaters generally require less maintenance compared to tanks, which may need periodic flushing to remove sediment buildup.
Environmental Impact: The energy efficiency of tankless heaters can reduce greenhouse gas emissions associated with water heating, contributing to environmental sustainability efforts.
Despite these benefits, it’s essential for businesses to consider the initial cost of installation, which can be higher than traditional tank water heaters. The specific benefits will vary depending on factors such as the business’s hot water demand, existing infrastructure, and energy costs. If you’re questioning whether or not your company would benefit from upgrading to tankless water heaters, give us a call! Since some water heaters also produce carbon monoxide, we also recommend carbon monoxide detector installation. We would be happy to examine your current setup, review your hot water needs, and give you our professional recommendations.
Water Heater Maintenance
Water heater maintenance services are essential to ensure the longevity, efficiency, and safety of your water heating system. Regular maintenance can prevent costly repairs, extend the lifespan of your water heaters, and optimize their performance.
What to Expect at a Maintenance Appointment
- Inspection and Cleaning: This includes checking for sediment buildup inside the tanks and inspecting the anode rods (if applicable).
- Testing and Adjustments: We will test the thermostat settings to ensure your water heaters are operating at the optimal temperature for your business needs. We will also check pressure relief valves to ensure they are functioning correctly. Adjustments may be made to improve energy efficiency and water temperature consistency.
- Flushing the Tank: This process involves draining the tanks to remove sediment buildup that accumulates over time.
- Inspecting and Tightening Connections: Our service professionals will inspect all fittings and connections to ensure there are no leaks or potential issues that could develop into leaks over time. We will tighten any loose connections to prevent water leaks.
- Assessment of Overall Performance: We will assess the overall performance of your water heaters, including how quickly they heat water and their energy consumption. If applicable, we will provide recommendations for improving efficiency or upgrading to a more energy-efficient system if your current heater is nearing the end of its lifespan.
