A homeowner in the West Salt Lake Valley recently contacted us regarding a leaking Noritz tankless water heater. We promptly responded the same day, arriving on-site to assess and diagnose the issue.
Our inspection revealed that the heat exchanger inside the unit had developed corrosion, resulting in a significant leak. This type of deterioration is typically caused by hard water and the absence of a water treatment or softening system. While Noritz tankless water heaters come with a 25-year warranty, their performance and longevity can still be compromised without proper water conditioning.
We worked closely with the manufacturer to facilitate a quick shipment of the necessary replacement components and completed the repair efficiently. The homeowner was pleased to have their hot water service restored in a timely and professional manner.
We would like to remind residents in the West Salt Lake Valley that installing a water softener is crucial for protecting tankless water heaters and the overall plumbing infrastructure in homes. Preventative water treatment can significantly extend the life of appliances and minimize the risk of future damage.
