Local water heater repair for Southbury homes
In Southbury, as in the rest of New Haven County, water heaters work hardest in winter, when cold incoming water makes them run longer. That's when weak parts tend to fail. We take calls from every part of town, including Heritage Village and South Britain.
Natural gas mains don't reach much of Southbury, 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 Southbury 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.
