Why Lancaster homeowners call us

Why does Lancaster's hard water matter for water heaters?

Lancaster's hard water shortens tank life and loads units with sediment and scale. Lancaster County sits on limestone bedrock, and limestone bedrock produces moderately to severely hard water. Hard water carries dissolved calcium and magnesium carbonate, which settles as sediment on a tank floor and hardens as scale on heating elements and tankless heat exchangers. The U.S. Department of Energy reports hard water reduces tank life by up to 2–3 years compared with soft-water areas, so a Lancaster tank runs toward the low end of the 8–12 year range. Lancaster Water Heater Pros services units with that hard-water reality built into every diagnosis, flush and descaling.

Answers

Water heater questions from Lancaster homeowners

What is the most common problem with a hot water heater?

Sediment buildup is the most common problem in Lancaster County. Limestone bedrock produces hard water that deposits calcium and magnesium carbonate inside the tank and on heating elements.

How long do water heaters last?

A tank lasts 8 to 12 years and a tankless unit lasts 20+ years. The U.S. Department of Energy reports hard water cuts tank life by up to 2 to 3 years, pulling Lancaster tanks toward the low end.

Who do I call if I need a new hot water heater?

Call a licensed plumbing contractor that installs water heaters. Lancaster Water Heater Pros installs gas, electric, tankless and hybrid units across Lancaster County at (717) 555-0100.

Is it worth it to repair a hot water heater?

A repair is worth it on a tank under 8 years old with a serviceable-part failure. A leaking shell past year 10 warrants water heater installation in Lancaster, PA instead.
