What We Found
During the inspection, our technician found that the existing electric water heater was heavily affected by sediment buildup. The unit was older and struggling to keep up with household demand, which explained the rapid loss of hot water. Without replacement, the problem would have continued to worsen and could have led to a complete system failure.
The Solution
We removed the old water heater and prepared the area with a new equipment pad designed for the replacement system. A new Essency electric water heater was installed, securely connected, and thoroughly tested to ensure proper operation. Once everything was up and running, we walked the homeowner through the next steps for registration and warranty coverage.
