Electric Hot Water Heaters
We are all rushed in the morning. Between getting ready for work, packing lunches and making sure the kids get to school on time, there is no room for error. Now imagine you turn on the shower, waiting to see the steam, ready to start your day. And nothing… Ice cold.
When your water heater goes out it instils a primal sort of panic. Going back to the middle ages is not something you had in your plans for today.
Amanda Plumbing can create a simple solution with respect to your budget. If your water heater is repairable, we will always offer that solution to you first. Based on age and damage assessed, some water heaters are deemed unrepairable. In this case we stock the most common sizes of gas and electric water heaters on hand.
Expert Water Heater Repair and Installation
Used as a single hot water source or as a holding tank in a two tank system, the electric water heater is a staple in residential homes. Often installed in new build houses because its lack of venting and gas lines make it installation a snap. Unfortunately, they do require more maintenance and have a lower first hour rating producing only 76 gallons of hot water compared to a natural gas tanks 89 gallons.

Do you run out of hot water quickly? Here are some signs that you may need a hot water heater repair. Are you in the shower for a couple of minutes when a blast of cold hits your head? You know the frustration!
- No hot water. Get the professionals on the phone!
- Your shower is lukewarm.
- Your shower starts out hot but goes cold within a few seconds.
- You experience a foul smell coming from the hot side of your faucet.
- There is a complete discoloration of the hot water.
- There is low pressure on the hot side of your faucet.
All of these signs indicate your tank is not working at optimal performance and may need service or replacement. You could try inspecting your water heater first. Look for any indicator lights flashing, any wires burned on the unit, any leaks near the tank or any rust around the tank. You can also double-check your electrical breaker to make sure your unit has electricity.

We provide affordable, efficient and fast water heater replacement. Putting a newer water heater in your home will provide lower electric bills and improved heating efficiency. Amanda Plumbing provides free bids for water heater replacement! With aging, your water heater will start to build up sediment in the bottom of the tank. As it heats and reheats it will begin to harden. Watch and listen for rumbling noises and leaking, this is a good sign that it is time to replace your water heat.
Whether your water heater is failing to produce hot water, outdated, or is leaking.
- Wetness or rusting around the bottom of the tank. This indicates a slow leak from the internal tank
- Green and white corrosion. Usually occurring on the inlet and outlet pipes, this can typically be repaired without consequence to your tank.
- Dripping from the relief valve. The short fix is a relief valve replacement but our plumbers are trained to look for a root cause like a failed thermal expansion tank creating excess pressure
- Popping sounds. During the reheating process an old gas water that is full of sediment may sound like popping popcorn. At this point your best option is replacement as it would not likely be cost effective to remove such a large quantity of build up.
- Your water heater is one of the most important appliances in your home. It heats the water that we use to shower, clean, and do laundry with. If your water heater needs a professional evaluation, call the experts.
- Water heater repairs and installations should only be performed by a licensed plumber. Incorrectly installed flues and gas lines can be dangerous to your health and safety. Trust the experienced professionals at Amanda Plumbing. Our custom installations include code upgrades. In some cases, a water regulator, expansion tank, and/or strap will need to be installed. Our motto is “You only get one chance to do it right the first time!”
How Your Water Heater Works
Most homes have historically used tank-type water heaters, which look like a big cylinder found in your basement or a utility closet. Knowing how your water heater works can potentially help you identify if it is time to repair or replace your unit.
Here's a simple guide on how your tank-type water heater works:
- Tank is automatically filled with water
- When you turn on your hot water at a faucet, the energy source kicks in to warm up your water
- When the water in the tank has been used, you have to wait for it to refill for more hot water
