Maintenance Versus Replacement Costs in Orlando, FL

A annual flush costs a small fraction of a new tank, and a new installed tank often runs $1,400 to $3,000 or more. We give you an honest read on whether maintenance is still worth it. If a tank is past 10 to 12 years old, shows rust at the base or leaks from the seams, we will tell you replacement is the smarter spend. When the tank still has life, maintenance keeps it running well for years.

Anode Rod Inspection & Replacement in Orlando, FL

The anode rod is your hot water tank's sacrificial protector against corrosion. Water across much of Florida comes from limestone aquifers and runs hard, leaving heavy scale on fixtures and inside water heaters. During our maintenance, we pull and inspect the anode rod. If it's significantly depleted, we recommend and perform a replacement to extend the life of your tank in Orlando, FL, preventing rust from eating away at the tank lining.

Relief Valve and Expansion Tank Testing in Orlando

The temperature and pressure relief valve is the part that keeps a tank from becoming dangerous. We lift the lever, confirm it opens and reseats and check the discharge line for proper material and termination. We also check your thermal expansion tank pressure with a gauge, since a waterlogged expansion tank lets pressure jump every heating cycle. High street pressure is common in many service areas, so we test static pressure at a hose bib too.

Gas Burner and Venting Tune-Up in Orlando, FL

On gas tanks we clean the burner, inspect the thermocouple or flame sensor and look for soot, rust flakes or scorching around the combustion chamber. We check the draft hood and vent connector for proper slope and secure joints. Dust and lint from garages can clog the flame arrestor screen on newer FVIR models, which causes the pilot to drop out. A clean burner gives a stable blue flame and lower gas bills.
