A homeowner will want to replace their electric water heater for several different reasons. If a water heater is not replaced, it can completely fail, or it can lead to increased energy consumption. Many people have been in for sticker shock when opening their power bill after their water heater went bad.
Getting a New Electric Water Heater
When the water heater needs to be replaced, the homeowner will need an electric water heater installation in Lehigh Acres, FL. This installation should never be done by the homeowners. Improperly installed water heaters may not function properly, and if the electricity is done wrong, it can pose a fire hazard. Instead of trying to do the electric water heater installation in Lehigh Acres, FL, they will want to hire an experienced plumbing company to do this for them.
The Installation Process
The installation process will consist of tearing out the old unit first. The old water heater will be drained of water, and carefully disconnected. The pipes that connect and drain away from the existing water heater will be inspected for cracks or other deformities. If they need to be replaced, it will be done during this time. After the old water heater is removed, the new one will be installed. After installation, a final inspection will be done to ensure that the heater is working as it should.
Finding an experienced plumbing company to handle the installation will help to ensure that the installation is done correctly. A homeowner will not have to worry about the electricity being hooked up wrong. They will also not have to worry about any leaks.
