Flush Away Cold Showers—for Good

Discover This Hot Trick for Warmer Water

When winter’s cold temperatures arrive, you seek out a warmer state of mind. Well, with 1,000 people moving to Florida every day, it’s clear that you’re not the only one who desires toastier weather. But the climate isn’t the only thing you like on the warmer side. You prefer your home’s H2O hot, too.

From washing the dishes to taking a shower, hot water is essential to your comfort. As homeowners, our team at Cornerstone Pros’ understands this necessity firsthand. Because of this, we offer the maintenance services your hot water heater in Tampa, FL needs to stop your H2O from giving you the cold shoulder.

How Can You Keep Your H2O Hot?

Hot water is often taken for granted—until, of course, you’re in the middle of a toasty shower and, suddenly, your H2O turns ice cold. But don’t wait for the goose bumps to arrive to give your water heater the attention it needs. Instead, be proactive with your system’s wellbeing. This means having your tank flushed once a year and a second time if any of the following signs occur:

  • It’s taking longer to reheat your water.
  • There’s rattling when your unit is operating.
  • Water pressure isn’t as powerful as it used to be.
  • Sediment is visible in your hot water.

Why Is Flushing Your Tank So Important?

Sediment, containing things like calcium and magnesium, naturally occurs in your water and settles at the bottom of your water heater’s tank. Over time, this sediment begins to line the inside of your water heater and clog your home’s pipes. When this happens, it becomes increasingly more difficult for your system to operate as it should. As a result, your water heater will lose its power and efficiency—and you will lose the hot water you so desperately need. However, flushing your tank blasts away sediment buildup to leave your water the way it should be: Hot—no matter what.

Who Can You Turn to for Help?

Cornerstone’s team is Florida’s home comfort experts. But we do more than provide dependable HVAC services and flawless air conditioning and heat pump installations in Tampa, FL. We restore the flow to your home with our elite plumbing services, too. So when it comes to the need for a hot water heater installation or tank flushing, find comfort that our warm servicing can help you attain the hotter water you deserve. With us on your side, you can finally say goodbye to cold showers for good.

What Happens When Your Tank Is Flushed?

Safety is our main priority. So, when we arrive to flush your tank, we will start by turning your water heater off. Then, we will drain the existing water inside the tank. Next, we’ll begin servicing your tank. This means thoroughly cleaning the inside to remove any sediment that has built up and checking your unit’s rods and other internal parts. Depending on what we find, we’ll alert you to any problems. Then, once the tank is spotless, we’ll refill your tank with clean H2O.

It doesn’t take long for you to see the results of your freshly cleaned and refilled tank. In fact, almost immediately you’ll notice:

  • Increased energy- and cost-efficiency
  • Longer lasting hot water—even during heavy usage
  • More powerful flow for your water
  • Lower monthly electricity bills
  • Minimized need for repairs

There’s a chance that, during our thorough tank inspection, we discover that your hot water tank needs to be replaced. If this happens, don’t sweat it. To protect your budget from getting into hot water, we are currently offering $200 off of a new tankless or hybrid water heater installation. So hurry up and flush away your worries before your comfort gets left out in the cold.
