Danvers Water

The water itself, or rather the minerals concentrated in the water, is the leading cause of hot water heater failure. The concentration of calcium and magnesium in water determines the degree to which water is hard or soft. Hard water causes sediment buildup in certain plumbing fixtures, appliances and hot water heating equipment.

Danvers water is sourced from Middleton Pond along with two supplemental groundwater wells. Danvers water supply, along with the water supply of a dozen other North Shore Towns originate in the Ipswich River and the Ipswich River watershed.

Since areas in the Ipswich River watershed have been home to limestone quarries over centuries its safe to assume that Danvers water is at least slightly hard. An easy way for Danvers residents to verify this is to observe if there is spotting on glassware or dishes after removal from the dishwasher.

Telltale Signs of Failing Water Heater

Indications that your hot water heater is not performing as it should include:

• rusty or discolored water
• hot water doesn’t last as long as before
• water heater making strange noises
• inconsistent water temperature
• water heater leaks

Depending on the age of the water heater a skilled plumber may be able to restore the water heater to proper working order. An expert plumber from Absolute Precision Plumbing Heating & Cooling will diagnose the problem and provide a recommendation.

If its possible to repair the hot water heater in your Danvers home consideration should be given to the cost of labor versus potential savings in energy costs that a new hot water heater would provide. Questions about whether to repair or replace can also hinge on whether the size of your tank is adequate for your current needs or perhaps bigger than you actually need.

More Energy Efficient

Since April 2015 federal regulations require tank water heaters to become more energy efficient. Depending on the size of your tank and the technology used savings could add up to 25% to 50%  of your utility bill, according to Consumer Reports.

Water Heater Maintenance

• Pressure relief valve
  • Test the valve. If it’s not working properly or leaks more than 8oz during one year it needs to be replaced.
• Anode rod
  • A sign that your anode rod is bad is smelly or discolored water. If so the anode rod should be checked and replaced if necessary. The purpose of the anode rod is to sacrifice itself for the sake of the water heater. They should be replaced every 5 years.
• Drain the tank to clear sediment
  • Minerals, such as calcium and magnesium, buildup over time in your water heater. If the water heater is drained and flushed every few years you will extend the life of the water heater and you should always have adequate hot water.

Indirect water heating is common in Danvers. Using the boiler or furnace of your home heating system to heat a fluid which circulates through a heat exchanger in the storage tank. The energy stored by the water tank allows the furnace to turn off and on less often, which saves energy.
