Gas Water Heater Shutdown
When working on gas units, we start by turning the gas control to OFF. We then shut off the gas and cold-water supplies and open the heater drain valve. This isolates the unit so we can inspect the tank and components.
Making Water-Heater Connections
Before making water-heater connections, we close the main water supply and open a faucet to relieve pressure in the lines. This ensures a dry, secure fit for the new fittings.
Checking the Surrounding Plumbing
A puddle around your water heater does not always mean the tank has failed. Sometimes the floor drain is backed up. We use a mechanical drain auger and a sewer inspection camera to verify if the issue is in your drainage system.
Beaverton Weather and Your Plumbing
In Beaverton, occasional winter freezes bring some freeze-thaw movement. This shifting can stress rigid plumbing connections over time. We inspect the pipes leading to your water heater to ensure they remain secure despite seasonal temperature changes.
