If you're having trouble with your water heater or it's time for a replacement, PLUMBING TECH provides residential water heater repair and installation in Ocean City, NJ. I work on conventional tank water heaters as well as tankless systems, including both gas and electric models.

As an owner-operated plumbing business, I'm the person who comes to your home, evaluates the problem, discusses your options with you, and performs the work.

Water heaters can develop problems as they age. Some common issues include leaking tanks or connections, failed heating elements, thermostat or control problems, ignition issues on gas units, sediment buildup, and normal deterioration from age.

If your water heater isn't producing enough hot water, is making unusual noises, is leaking, or has stopped working altogether, I can evaluate the unit and determine whether a repair is practical or whether replacement makes more sense.

Not every water heater problem means the unit needs to be replaced. Whenever practical, I'll evaluate the water heater and determine whether a repair makes sense.

Depending on the problem, a repair may be a reasonable option. If the water heater is beyond repair or replacement makes more sense because of its age or condition, I'll explain the situation and discuss replacement options with you.

I install both gas and electric residential tank water heaters. I can supply the new water heater or, if you prefer, install a water heater that you have purchased yourself.

I'll install the brand you choose, although I highly recommend and prefer Bradford White water heaters based on my experience with them.

One thing homeowners may not realize is that today's tank water heaters can be physically larger than older units of the same capacity. Increased insulation can result in a larger diameter or overall height. That's why I take the available space and measurements into consideration when selecting the proper replacement.

PLUMBING TECH also installs gas and electric tankless water heaters.

Converting from a conventional tank to a tankless system isn't always as simple as removing one and installing the other. Before making the change, I check whether the home's existing utilities can properly support the new unit.

For an electric tankless water heater, that may mean determining whether there is sufficient capacity and space available in the electrical panel. For a gas tankless system, the existing gas piping needs to be evaluated to determine whether it can provide the required gas supply.

If additional gas piping is necessary for the installation, I can perform that work as part of the plumbing project.

Regular maintenance is important for a tankless water heater, and descaling is an important part of maintaining the unit.

Mineral deposits can accumulate inside the heat exchanger over time and affect the operation and efficiency of the water heater. I provide tankless water heater descaling service to help maintain the system and keep it operating properly.

The appropriate maintenance schedule can vary depending on the water quality, usage and manufacturer's recommendations.

PLUMBING TECH specializes in residential plumbing. I provide water heater services for homes in Ocean City, New Jersey, including primary residences, vacation homes and shore properties.

My water heater services include conventional tank installation, tankless installation, water heater repair, tankless descaling and related gas piping when required.

I do not install water heaters in commercial buildings or large condominium buildings.

If you're having a problem with your existing water heater, need a replacement, or are considering switching to a tankless system, contact me and we can discuss your options.
