Types of Water Heaters We Service

At Roth Home, we provide water heater service on all types of residential and commercial systems, including conventional models and newer, tankless options.

Here are the most common types of water heaters we service:

Tank Water Heaters

Conventional water heaters utilize an insulated tank that stores heated water until it is needed. This is the most common and affordable style of water heater. Tank water heaters are most commonly gas-powered, but electric models are also available.

Electric Tankless Water Heaters

Tankless water heaters run on electricity and are the most energy-efficient option on the market. Instead of storing heated water, they heat water as it’s needed, which translates to significant savings on your energy bills. Whether you need tankless water heater repair in Portland or a new installation, Roth Home has you covered.

Hybrid Water Heaters

Hybrid water heaters utilize both a storage tank and an electric-powered heating system. While they aren’t quite as streamlined as tankless options, they are still significantly more energy-efficient than conventional water heaters.

If you’re not sure what type of water heater you have or you’d simply like to learn more about these appliances, our team is standing by to help. We can help you decide which model will suit your needs and provide the amount of hot water you need to keep your home comfortable.

Portland Water Heater Maintenance

Every experienced plumber will tell you the same thing—regular water heater maintenance is crucial to extending the life of your system. Water heater service performed by a qualified technician helps identify problems and prevent new ones from occurring.

In most cases, maintenance only needs to be performed once a year to keep your tank in good working condition.

During your water heater maintenance visit, our technicians will:

• Drain your tank and flush out sediment

• Clean burners

• Check electrical connections

• Check water heater flexes and gas lines

• Offer recommendations for repair or replacement if necessary

Flushing out sediment from your tank is one of the most important parts of tank maintenance, as sediment that’s left to build up over time can cause corrosion and create a risk for your tank to rupture. If you haven’t had water heater service in some time, now’s a great time to catch up on maintenance! Call us today at 503-673-6394 to schedule an appointment.

Signs You Need Water Heater Repair in Portland

If your water heater is aging, you might wonder whether repair or replacement makes more sense. According to the U.S. Department of Energy, water heaters typically last 10-15 years, though this can be shorter without regular maintenance.

Watch for these signs that you need water heater repair services:

• System age over 10 years

• Rusty water indicating tank corrosion

• Leaks from the tank

• Significantly rising energy bills

Not sure whether to repair or replace? Our expert technicians can assess your system and provide honest recommendations based on your budget and needs. Call us today at 503-673-6394 to schedule an inspection.
