Santa Barbara Water Heaters

Most homeowners would agree that a hot water heater is one of the most important appliances found in a home. For some, it may come after the refrigerator, dishwasher, oven, etc… until the moment they think about taking a cold shower or bath; then it becomes priority number one to protect the creature comforts. When your hot water heater isn’t functioning at peak performance, some signs to look for might include unexpected water temperatures, low water pressure, rusty water, or water leaking around the base of the hot water tank.

If you’re having problems with your hot water heater, we’ll diagnose the issue and give you an estimate for service and repair. If your water heating unit is more than 10 years old, it might be more economical to replace it rather than to fix it. As your hot water heater ages, many of the parts may be nearing their end of service, requiring additional repairs.
