5 Unexpected Water Heater Troubles and How to Solve Them

RH Business Marketing Solutions

Broken appliances ruin everybody’s day. Among all the appliances that are very important water heater can easily make the top of anybody’s list. So a faulty water heater is indeed an emergency. There are many water heater troubles, we will talk about the 5 most common unexpected water heater troubles and how to solve them instantaneously. 

What kind of water heater is it?

Knowing the type of water heater you use always helps. Just knowing whether it is electric or gas powered is usually enough but the more the merrier. There are many sub types, brands, models. A little preliminary knowledge on the type of water heater you use will help you navigate work and understand when an EZ Plumber will talk to you. 

However, the EZ Plumbers are instructed to explain everything to the client in detail before asking them for a decision.

5 Unexpected water heater problems

Noisy water heater 

Hot water heater noises may be caused by a variety of different things, so it's important to keep an eye out for them. In most cases, a loud water heater indicates that minor repairs are required. 

Sediment from minerals and hard water scale is generating the "gravel" sounds. Because of the direct heat from the burner below, silt at the bottom of a water heater tank becomes hot. Therefore rumbling sounds can be heard.

The other reason is scale forms on the heating components in an electric water heater over time. Scale and trapped water are cooked by the heat of the elements as they arise.  Popping sounds, crackling noises, or sizzling sounds might be the result of this.

These problems can be solved by flushing your water heater. For flushing your water heater, remove the water supply to your water heater by shutting off the cold water valve Turn the water heater's thermostat down or off.

 After that, attach a garden hose to the heater's tank drain valve. Turn on all the hot water faucets. Drain the tank by opening the drain valve on the water heater. Turn on the cold water supply again after draining the tank. A wet/dry vacuum can be used to remove any remaining silt from the drain valve. Open the hot water faucets as long as the water continues to pour out of them before turning them off. Finally, adjust the thermostat on your water heater to your preferred temperature.

No Hot water 

Some of the main reasons for not getting hot water are sediments, problems in the thermostat, and the dip tube. You can resolve this problem by simply:

 

Changing the temperature of your water tank:

Sometimes temperature of the water can fall because of an unexpected click on the temperature control. This may sound funny but this is by far the most common reason. So, whenever the water is cold, you can check that. 

 

Replacing the dip tube: 

Replacing a dip tube is a rather inexpensive endeavor. A Dip tube costs as little as $10-15. Changing a dip tube would cost very little at EZ Plumbing as well. Always for professional plumbers for changing the dip tube. DIY can ruin your water heater unit. 

 

Replacing gas valve:

If your gas valve is faulty replace it as well. A new gas valve will stay good for a long time while supplying adequate hot water every day. 

 

Flushing the tank :

A Flushing tank is a very easy yet effective remedy in most cases. Because sediments are also the reason for no hot water flushing may help. 

Changing the thermostat:

Change the thermostat because the thermostat is the reason for the most water heater problem. Call a professional technician and be done with it.

 All the problem requires a professional plumber. EZ can be your plumber water heater install and  repair water heater in San Diego 

Not enough hot water

The reasons for not enough water is as similar as no hot water but it is very much expected that the heating capacity of a water heater will deteriorate as time will go on. If age is not the problem try the remedies above. 

However, one less discussed issue is the weather. Sometimes outside weather can affect the performance of your water heater. So if there is extreme weather outside there is nothing much to do. 

Leaking tank 

Some causes of water heater leaks are 

Loose Drain valve 

Too much pressure

Extreme temperature and pressure relief valve

Old tank

Sediments

 Inlet and outlet connections

 Anode rod

Cracked storage tank

A leaking tank must be repaired instantly by professional plumbers. However, an easy way to combat a leaking tank will include tightening every connection, flushing the sediments out, and replacing the leaking tank altogether.  

 

Water is too hot

In this scenario either the temperature setting is too high or the pressure relief valve is broken. It is advised to check the temperature setting and set it to the recommended temperature. Water heaters typically have a temperature setting of 120 degrees Fahrenheit.

The other one is to change or repair the pressure relief valve. The water heater's pressure relief valve prevents it from overheating by allowing excess steam to be expelled. As a result of a malfunctioning or clogged relief valve, steam will build up inside the water tank. This might lead to it overheating and perhaps bursting under pressure. Check and replace the valve with the assistance of an expert. 

If you are looking for an expert plumber for water heater installation in Los Angelesyou consider EZ Plumbing as it is very affordable. The company also provides ample benefits to its customers. 

How to Prevent Frozen Pipes

RH Business Marketing Solutions

As the winter days get colder, the risk of your pipes freezing are more and more likely if you don’t take precautionary measures. Nobody wants their pipes freezing and bursting, as common as it is, it’s a very expensive fix. One of the most common caused of property damage during the winter and cold weather is ruptured pipes. But, luckily there are steps and preventative measures you can take to prevent ice blockages and frozen pipes. Keeping your pipes warm during the winter is a must, and it might raise your heating bill a little, but a little extra money to keep the pipes warm is definitely worth preventing frozen pipes and burst pipes that could cost thousands to fix.

As the temperatures get colder and colder as the days go by, the water in your pipes begins to freeze. This might not sound like a big deal to you, but it is. Water pipes that freeze are at a higher risk of rupturing, which could result in leaks and flooding.

For those who do not know, when water freezes, it begins to expand. If the water inside of a pip freezes, it will begin to expand, which is putting pressure on the pipes and putting the pipe at risk for a rupture.

Fun fact, pipes hardly ever burst where ice has formed. The freezing portion of the pipe puts pressure between the faucet and the blockage, and that is more than likely where the pipe is going to burst, which ironically is usually in a spot without any ice on it at all.

Easy Steps to Apply When Transforming Old Furniture

RH Business Marketing Solutions

Transforming old furniture as opposed to spending a hefty sum on brand new items comes with a great deal of perks. You may find that the pieces of furniture you purchased years ago are of extremely high quality and that the offers in stores that align with your budget aren’t on par. Thus, by refurbishing, you get to keep stuff of sentimental value while being able to unleash your creativity and produce unique pieces. In another scenario, you could set an eye on an affordable second-hand piece that could, after some refurbishing, easily compete with the fancy new offerings from furniture shops. Whatever the case may be, here are some practical solutions to help you successfully carry out your furniture transformation.

Choose your refurbishing methods according to the material

When embarking on your furniture transformation journey, there are some factors you need to take into account first. Namely, you should consider the material you’re working with before starting. This step is significant because this factor will determine your refurbishing methods and the necessary supplies. In other words, pieces of furniture will require different treatments, depending on whether they are made of particle boards or solid wood, for instance. While solid wood can sustain latex and other water-based primers and paint, using them on particle boards will cause this material to swell due to absorbed moisture. Particle boards require oil-based products. However, there is an exception. You can use water-based paint on particle boards if you apply an oil-based primer first.

Switch it up by changing the colors

Painting the surfaces and changing the upholstery is an easy, yet impactful way to give your furniture a complete makeover. Before beginning the process of embellishing the items by painting them, some prep needs to take place, to ensure a proper and durable finish. This pertains to stripping the paint, sanding, and cleaning the surfaces. On the other hand, furniture that has fabric, such as sofas, couches, and chairs, can achieve a brand new look with some simple reupholstering. There is a wide range of lovely upholstery fabrics you can choose from.They come in various colors, patterns, and materials, giving you the power to match any style you desire.

Conduct the necessary repairs

A key step to making your furniture pieces appear brand new is to fix all the broken parts and replace those that can’t be repaired. This involves things like adding missing legs to chairs or tables and attaching new handles to drawers. Sometimes, pieces of material, such as wood, may break off and form cracks or holes. While uneven surfaces can be polished by sanding, in this kind of situation, it’s necessary to fill in these spots first. A practical and easy way to patch up missing chunks of wood is by applying a wood putty

Ensure the protection of your newly renovated items

Spillages over furniture are extremely common and practically inevitable. While some pieces such as tables can be wiped clean effortlessly, the same is not true for the items made of fabric. For that reason, when buying upholstery, it’s wise to order extra fabric to be able to create covers for your couches and sofas. The advantage is that they are easily washable and replaceable. Not only will this ensure that your furniture pieces remain spotless but it also protects them from wearing out. On the other hand, you can protect wooden furniture by applying wood polish, as well as re-waxing and re-oiling from time to time.

Ultimately, renovating used furniture can be a delightfully creative process. Opportunities are endless, allowing you to create truly remarkable and stylish pieces. While there are no limitations as to how much you can rely on your artistic side, learning about different techniques of refurbishing is still essential. Only that way can you ensure durability in addition to an attractive design.

Improve the Appearance of Your Old House with These Maintenance Tips

RH Business Marketing Solutions

Being an owner of an old home is all fun and games until it’s time for renovations. When the time comes to consider repairs and renovations, you have two options: restore its original heritage look, or do a contemporary renovation and modernize it. Whatever you decide to do, it’s imperative to do a bit of research and see which option is better for you. If you’re in love with your heritage home and want to keep as much of its former glory as possible, here are a few maintenance tips that will help you. 

See if you need a special permit

The thing about heritage homes is that they are very often protected by tricky laws and complicated regulations. This is great for keeping heritage and history alive, but it can be a nightmare for homeowners who are looking to renovate. So, when you decide to do some extensive work on your old property, it’s always a good idea to check (and double-check) to see whether you need a special permit to do that. If you do need it, you will have to apply for one before you start doing any work, and wait for the heritage committee to come over and review your renovation plan. All this is to say that they will certainly want you to keep and restore those distinctive heritage features the right way. Keep in mind that rules and regulations differ between counties and states, so it’s best to call and ask instead of assuming.

Issues with flooring

When it comes to the inside of your house, flooring is often one of the biggest issues, but it doesn’t have to be. Fortunately, a great number of old homes have sturdy hardwood floors which are the epitome of class and durability. If you have hardwood floors in your home, you will most likely only need to freshen them up a bit by sanding them and applying another player of polish. While such procedures can be costly, in the end, you will get amazing results that will make you wish you never had rugs and carpets in the first place. However, not all homes are blessed with hardwood floors. If you have vinyl flooring, it might contain asbestos, and you’ll have to call professionals to have it removed safely. 

Old bathrooms

Old bathrooms can be a nightmare to keep clean simply because we are used to more modern fixtures. To be honest, it doesn’t really matter how much you clean and dust and scrub your bathroom if you have leaky faucets or a running toilet. Any structural issues should be handled professionally and quickly because only then will you be able to focus on the details. You can clean out the grout to make your tiles appear even cleaner than before, but if the grout is just too old and grime-y, simply have it replaced (or replace it yourself if you’re a fan of DIY projects). Bathrooms in heritage homes used to have wallpapers, but you should probably remove them and paint the walls as bright as you can. Bright colors on walls will make your bathroom appear more spacious and clean. 

Don’t forget the roof

Sadly, for a lot of heritage homeowners, simple roof repairs won’t be enough. This is because old roofs will most likely have to be replaced due to damage. Even if you have to replace the roof, you should aim to keep the air of old times, so try to find professionals specialized in heritage roofing. Old roofs can be made of copper, zinc, and lead which are not easy to restore on your own because you will have to use the same material to replace a slate roof or heritage tiles. Not only will professionals be able to tell you the best way to fix any issues, but they will also see whether or not there are traces of asbestos. Asbestos was very popular decades ago, but it’s dangerous to remove it on your own, which is why you will need professionals to do it for you. 

Renovate your façade 

While in many cases, painting the exterior of an old house will be enough to ‘freshen up’ its appearance and make it look better, with heritage homes the situation is a bit more complex. Because the streetscape is severely impacted by the color of your façade, you will have to run your color scheme by the council and see whether or not it’s fitting. You will not be able to just pick and color and paint your house – color schemes for heritage homes can be very specific. For example, you might only be allowed to use a specific color for your windows, decorative details, and doors. Don’t be discouraged, though – when you run your ideas by the council and get approved, rest assured that a simple coat of paint will make your old house look decades younger. 

Taking up a heritage project will likely be more challenging than you might have thought at first. There are many things you have to consider before you actually start with the renovation. What is more, when you finally do start, you’ll discover that it’s more hard work than you believed in the beginning, especially since you can’t DIY a lot of things like you might do in a contemporary home. Nevertheless, all these things will be forgotten once you complete your project and look at your beautiful old house.

Add Value to Your Home With These Upgrades

RH Business Marketing Solutions

When you put your home up for sale, potential buyers must see your house at its best so they experience positive feelings about it. You want to make your home as attractive as possible from the moment a person drives up. You can do many things to improve your home's curb appeal without spending a small fortune. Kevin Szabo Jr. Plumbingshares some ways to immediately add value to your home.

The Upgrade Effect

USA Today points out that certain upgrades, like the ones listed here, can positively influence your home’s value. Renovating kitchens and bathrooms, in fact, show some of the best returns on the dollar, so be sure to hire pros like those at Kevin Szabo Jr. Plumbing for installations. Don’t forget to keep all of your upgrade paperwork, including estimates and receipts, safe and handy by digitizing the documents and storing them online or on your hard drive. You can compress a PDF online to reduce the file size so you don’t use more storage than necessary. 

Add Flower Beds

Flowers are a beautiful, inexpensive way to enhance your home's exterior. Even if you don't have the greenest thumb in the world, planting some flower beds with low-maintenance, colorful blooms is an easy way to boost your home's curb appeal.

Consider using perennials for these landscape upgrades. Perennials come back with little care each season, making them more cost-effective for you and new owners. Don't forget to add mulch to your fresh flower beds. Mulch helps keep evaporation to a minimum, which reduces watering needs. Using mulch also makes flower beds look tidy.

Remove Dead Trees

Dead and dying trees are an eyesore on your property, and they can make your entire yard look unkempt. If the tree is too big for you to handle safely, hire a tree removal service. These companies have the tools and equipment to do the job right.

Before hiring a contractor, read reviews and online testimonials to make an informed decision. Get at least three estimates, and ask if the proposals include stump grinding and disposal.

Install Edging

Adding edging around flower beds can enhance their appearance, and it's an inexpensive way to add curb appeal to your home. Edging also helps prevent grass from growing onto walkways or other areas where you don't want it to grow.

Make Repairs to Exterior Windows and Doors

Homes with cracked windows, missing window screens or faulty window seals give a negative impression. Spend a little money to fix these issues. Updating or upgrading your windows can improve your home's value and appearance.

The same goes for your front door. If your home has a front door with chipped or peeling paint or cracks in the frame, it looks neglected and can negatively affect your home's value. With a small investment of time and money, you can fix these issues yourself.

Power Wash Your Home's Exterior

Millennial Magazine notes that you can improve your home's curb appeal by power washing the exterior. An old coat of paint, dirt stains, mold growth, or mildew can make your home look shabby even if it isn't in poor condition. Exterior power washing may be a temporary solution, but it's a cheap and easy one that can help your home sell.

Install a New Fence

Fences are a great way to define the edge of your property. If you want to make your house look larger, consider adding fencing around the yard. Fences with gates and decorative elements add curb appeal to your home, especially when you embellish them with colorful flowers or vines.

Boost Your Home's Exterior Appeal

Many small improvements can boost your home's curbside appeal. Update your landscaping, add a new fence, and clean up with power washing and fresh paint. For help with kitchen and bathroom upgrades, contact Kevin Szabo Jr. Plumbing today by calling 708-845-7922!

The Advantages of Hiring a Licensed Electrician to Replace Kitchen Outlets

RH Business Marketing Solutions

 

Do-it-yourself projects are becoming increasingly popular. You can refinish an antique hutch and have a focus point in your kitchen in no time. An electrical job is a little different from other types of labor. Surges or even a fire hazard can be caused by minor errors. The last thing you want to do is sabotage a high-end appliance or start a house fire. There are a few things you can do yourself, but you should employ Professional electrician Aliso Viejo in your region for the majority of electrical jobs. Many people don't give their home's electrical capabilities and capacity much thought until something goes wrong. When they discover that they need to replace their equipment or appliances on a regular basis, they recognize that something is wrong with their home's electrical wiring. While some homeowners may eventually resolve to remedy the problems themselves, hiring a professional residential electrician is usually more cost-effective, less frustrating, and time-consuming.

 

Safety

The most important reason to engage a professional electrician is for your own safety, the safety of your family, and the safety of your home. If you don't have the necessary skills, safety training, and equipment, working with electricity can be highly dangerous. Not only are you putting your safety at risk while working on the repair, but if it's done incorrectly, you could accidentally cause long-term safety risks such as electrical shocks and fire.

 

Experience and Education

The most obvious benefit of hiring an electrician to remedy an electrical problem is the peace of mind that comes with it. Because all Master Electricians must complete a standardized test before working in the field, the chances of a licensed electrician making a mistake are slim. In addition, a person must have two years of experience working with electrical systems.

 

Troubleshooting

We can't tell you how many times we get calls about a single issue with a house electrical system, only to arrive on the job site and realize that the problem is merely one symptom of a much broader issue. Only a Top electrical contractor anaheim can undertake the troubleshooting and problem-solving required to determine what's wrong with your electrical system and the best course of action.

 

Qualifications and Education

Before receiving their license, professional electricians must complete many hours of education, on-the-job training, and certification. Professional electricians can produce a specific grade of work that you can't reach without those hours of training and expertise, thanks to the certification procedure. Check whether they're an apprentice, journeyman, or master electrician, and make sure their firm (or the company that hires them) is bonded, licensed, and insured while looking for an electrician.

 

Long-Term Mindfulness

To keep your mind at ease, you should contact a skilled electrician. Having your electrical system service by a professional will help extend its life and prevent future problems. Electrical work done by a Professional electrician Aliso Viejo is usually guaranteed, which means that if the problem persists or recurs, they'll return to fix it for free. All recommended repairs, parts, and appliances, for example, are covered by a lifetime warranty from Bonfe.

 

The best approach to avoid having to figure out the electrical system's intricacies

Electrical circuits and systems that you build yourself can leave you scratching your head. Even though they appear to be simple, electrical wirings are complicated linkages. Repairing a circuit board may lead to the discovery of another that you were unaware of. It is not a do-it-yourself project to navigate the maze of electrical connections and systems. Calling in a Top electrical contractor anaheim is the best way to avoid costly mistakes and mishaps.

 

Investigate any problems with your electrical system.

Over time, an electrical system will show signs of wear and strain. Updating your home's electrical connections and systems necessitates the assistance of a competent electrician. When it comes to a home's electrical systems, nothing is easy. Electrical wiring may appear to be easy at first glance, but attempting to repair them on your own can soon grow into a large and difficult project. Hiring a skilled electrician is the best way to avoid getting in over your head.

 

The right method to perform the job

An electrical project is not a hit-or-miss endeavor. To ensure the protection of your family and property, it must be done correctly each and every time. A competent electrician knows exactly what he's doing and how he'll do it. It is not time-consuming to fix it yourself; nonetheless, it may jeopardize everyone's safety.

Top electrical contractor anaheim is the one who can you trust to get the job done right when it comes to electrical repairs, upgrades, and custom projects? We're highly cost-effective, courteous, professional, and trustworthy. You may rest assured that when you contact us for services or enquiries, we will be available and ready to help you straight away.

Making Your Small Place Feel Like A Big Space

RH Business Marketing Solutions

Mastering some simple design elements can make any home feel open and roomier. This is especially important as most of us are not fortunate enough to live in our dream home. We are forced to make do with what we have. This is precisely why we came up with this guide on ways to make your place feel bigger.

 

No matter how small your place might be, there are a lot of simple ways to make that space feel larger. While you won’t physically gain any additional square footage, your overall feelings while in the room will be affected. This can be done by manipulating your place’s colors, textures and patterns. For example, simply keeping your colors light will do wonders for the feeling of openness in a given room. Going with a monochromatic color palette will produce a more airy feeling overall than having lots of contrast.

 

 Another design element to help your small place feel bigger is using stripes to lengthen the feel of room. Choosing accents such as light fabric curtains and furniture with thin, long legs will help your space feel a lot larger than it actually is. Walls and fllors can be accentuated with striped elements that help guide the eye vertically, creating the feeling of additional height. Anything that draws the eye upward is a plus.

 

Accepting your small space doesn’t have to mean feeling like you’re always trapped in a phone booth. Mastering some simple elements of design and using psychology to your advantage can help small spaces feel much larger — ultimately making you more comfortable in them.

Commercial Water Leak Tips & Advice For Protecting Your Business

RH Business Marketing Solutions

Water leaks and water damage within a commercial building can jeopardize a company’s ability to continue operating and working effectively. All commercial buildings are different, but from a minor leak to damage as a result of a destructive hurricane, each is at risk for water damage. Therefore, any unwanted and unexpected water intrusion can have a huge impact on the value and worth of the commercial building. 

Water leaks are often associated with personal injury cases wherein a person slips or trips and then files for workers compensation to cover the medical care and lost wages. And in some extreme events these can result in wrongful death cases. It is vital therefore that business owners know their duties when it comes to building maintenance, else they may be held liable for any damages that ensue. 

Ultimately, water leakage within a business – if not timely and immediately addressed and inspected, may lead to extensive issues. So, with that in mind, read our tips for protecting your business against water leaks. If your commercial building has experienced a water leak, get in touch with an emergency water leakage solution provider as soon as possible. 

Tips For Preventing Water Damage in a Commercial Building

Here we’ll explore some useful tricks and tips for preventing water leaks within your commercial building.

1. Inspection

A pro tip is to keep an eye on the building itself, the same way you would pay proper attention to the running of your business. Ultimately, you can’t continue operating your business effectively if your building is having severe serious issues like water leakage, so the two go hand in hand. 

It would be wise to inspect the building regularly – particularly the plumbing fixtures, water and gas pipelines, the building’s structure, and the roof. If anything is unusual or there is significant wear or tear, a service provider can then get the issue solved before it becomes a major problem.

2. Professional Maintenance

Self-inspection of the building is essential, however, when you examine the issues or complications by yourself, there are chances that you may miss important factors that can result in further damage later. Unlike a professional plumbing or maintenance solution provider, you are not trained or experienced to know the systems – hence, you can’t really inspect, evaluate and fix those issues.

This is why it is always a good idea to call a plumbing solution provider to do a full MOT of your building regularly to catch issues before they become big problems.

3. Outside Cleaning

Have you ever thought that your building’s gutters could risk water leaking into the building eventually? If you don’t clean your building’s gutters on a regular basis, they may get clogged.  Blockages essentially mean that water is prevented from running freely and you may experience an unexpected water leakage issue. It’s essential and highly recommended to keep your building’s gutters clean and debris-free to prevent any issues.

4. Repairs and Upgrades

A wide range of people use water fixtures frequently in commercial buildings, so the fixtures do tend to wear out quicker than in residential buildings. In addition, there may be some older and weak water fixtures in your building that were installed before you moved in. 

Such situations often lead to water leaks in commercial buildings. Thus, you must consider replacing and upgrading old water fixtures and pipes to make sure they can easily and effectively handle high usage.

A plumbing or home maintenance expert can carefully assess and inspect the building’s plumbing system and such issues in your commercial building and advise on the right pipes and fixtures that can best meet your needs.

5. Consider Installing Water Leak Detection Systems For Your Building

Have you ever thought of installing water leak detection systems for your building? It is certainly an up-front-cost but it is worth investing in. 

Commercial water leak detection systems can help you easily and effectively address and answer water leaks with the help of sensors. Such sensors will help send alerts or signals to the concerned authorities so that they can take valuable measures and resolve the issue efficiently and before too much damage is caused. 

Other Ways To Address And Evaluate The Water Leakage In Your Commercial Building!

Water leaks or water damage in a commercial building can quickly turn into a business owner’s nightmare. Here are other useful tips to address the water leakage in your building:

  1. Look for even minor signs of water leaks

  2. Check for signs of roof leaks

  3. Try to find the origin point of the leak in the roof

  4. Make sure to assess leaks especially if the water is still dripping

  5. Make sure to do a close inspection to find out the cause

  6. Test and inspect toilets, faucets, and pipes and fixtures for leaks
