Local water heater repair for Cheshire homes
Homeowners across Cheshire call us when their water heater acts up, whether it's a pilot that won't stay lit, a puddle on the basement floor or a tank that's simply too old to trust. Calls come in from all over town, including Cheshire Village.
Natural gas mains don't reach much of Cheshire, so local homes typically rely on electric, propane or oil, often making hot water off the boiler through an indirect tank or tankless coil.
Many Cheshire homes draw water from private wells. Well water often carries sediment, iron or minerals that settle at the bottom of a tank, cause popping and rumbling, bury electric elements and shorten the tank's life. A sulfur or rotten-egg smell from the hot water is also more common with well water; it usually comes from a reaction with the anode rod. Annual flushing and the right anode rod go a long way.
