Signs You Need Emergency Water Heater Service
Our expert technicians are ready to help 24/7.
In America, a reliable supply of hot water in the home isn’t a luxury—it’s regarded as an essential. But if your hot water heater is acting up in a serious way, remember that there may be more than your comfort at stake. Some types of hot water heater problems can actually pose a threat to your personal safety and/or the integrity of your home. So don’t hesitate to reach out to the qualified professionals at The Stanley Louis Company any time, day or night, when you need water heater help.
Here are 3 possible scenarios in which you might need to contact The Stanley Louis Company for emergency water heater repair.
Major Water Leak
If your hot water heater has sprung a major leak, you obviously can’t wait until regular business hours to get help. Even assuming you are able to shut off the water supply to your water heater on your own, you would probably need to wait to fully remediate the water damage until after the repair had been completed. This would allow moisture to remain in place, which would be bad for your property and n cases of severe water damage could even lead to mold or structural issues. You are much better off calling for emergency water heater repair right away.
Gas Problem
If you have a gas water heater, any problems with the pilot light or gas lines could potentially be very dangerous. Naturally you will want to get professional eyes on any such gas problems ASAP. To be absolutely safe, you might even want to turn off your gas before you call. At The Stanley Louis Company, we have ample experience with both older gas models with the standing pilot lights and newer ones with the intermittent pilot lights and we can help you keep the unit operating within safe and efficient parameters.
No Hot Water
Finally, you may want to call for emergency water heater repair if you aren’t getting any hot water from your taps. While this situation isn’t a danger to yourself or your property, it could be a danger to your career if you have to take time off of work to wait for the repair guy during regular business hours. The convenience of having a skilled repair technician come to your home at the exact moment you need him is well worth the small extra charge for an emergency service visit.
