Solve Hot Water Heater Problems Before They Start

MEMPHIS, Tenn., March 10 /PRNewswire/ -- Water heaters are the unsung heroes of the home – providing warm water for baths, hot water to sanitize dishes and a range of temperatures that make cleaning clothes a breeze. And even though homeowners rely on them to perform their jobs daily, water heater maintenance is something that doesn't often cross homeowners' minds… until the "hot" water runs cold.

To help keep hot water heater problems at bay, ARS/Rescue Rooter®, a privately held, nationwide provider of air conditioning, heating and plumbing services, has created an online resource designed to help homeowners better understand their water heaters and plan for proper maintenance. Two basic steps that can improve overall water heater performance include:    

• Insulating the water heater tank. This can reduce standby heat losses by 25% to 45% – and save homeowners up to 9% in water heating costs.
• Getting annual check-ups. When performed by professionals who understand water heater problems, this step can help homeowners fix small leaks before they cause major damage, keep the system free of sediment, spot rust, wear and corrosion and ensure that all components are working properly.
