Unfortunately the warning signs of a failed hot water tank are not always subtle. We often arrive at water heater change outs with wet vacuums and trash bags in hand. Floors are ruined, insulation is saturated and personal belongings are destroyed.
Navien NCB Combi-Boiler
The Navien NCB is the first high efficiency tankless condensing combination boiler with the capacity to supply both heat and domestic hot water for larger homes - enough hydronic heat for a whole house, plus hot water to run two showers and a dishwasher all at the same time.
What is a Heat Pump Water Heater?
A ‘heat pump’ is a device that moves heat from one place to another; it works much like an air conditioner or a refrigerator. While a refrigerator moves heat from your fridge to your kitchen, a heat pump water heater (HPWH) moves heat from your home into the hot water tank. Most HPWHs include an integrated hot water tank and a ‘hybrid’ mode (i.e. they can also run as standard electric water heaters if necessary).
Most water heaters (hot water tanks) have a lifespan of 7-12 years. The glass lining inside your home’s water heater is usually the first point of failure. After repeated heating and cooling the glass eventually expands and cracks. These cracks in the water heater’s glass lining expose the outer metal sheathing which ultimately results in rust and slow leaks. Over time slow leaks can become large leaks which could result in further damage to the surrounding areas and objects.

Regular proactive heating and air conditioning repair will help reduce the risk of unexpected malfunctions, as well as major damage from long-term neglect. Keeping up with proactive maintenance can significantly lengthen the lifespan of a system, saving homeowners both time and money in the long run. Taking proactive steps now can spare homeowners forgotten bills or costly emergency repairs down the road.
Proactive Plumbing Maintenance
Homeowners should be proactive when it comes to plumbing repairs and maintenance - if you wait too long to fix a problem, you may end up paying much more than necessary in time, money, and energy. Proactive plumbing repair can help avoid future maintenance issues, as well as ensure any current problems are addressed quickly. Often times proactive plumbing repair can require basic steps such as checking appliance connections for leaks or regularly cleaning drains. By taking those proactive measures, homeowners are often able to identify minor plumbing issues before they become costly disasters. Therefore, proactive plumbing maintenance is an important step for every homeowner.
Protect Your Garbage Disposal And Keep It Running Smoothly
Don't Put Certain Foods Down the Drain
Garbage disposals are a great way to help keep your kitchen clean, but it’s important to remember that not all foods should be put down the drain. Fibrous materials, like celery and onion skins, can clog your drain, while sticky materials, like grease, can be difficult for the disposal to grind up. Always refer to the manufacturer's instructions to see what can and cannot be put down your disposal.
A.J. LeBlanc Heating is your Water Deduct Meter Installation Expert
What is a Water Deduct Meter?
A deduct meter measures the water used for irrigation and outdoor faucets and deducts this water from the sewage portion of your water bill. By deducting the outside water usage, you are only required to pay for the sewage fee for the water used inside your home, which will save you drastically on your monthly water bill. With a deduct meter, you can accurately measure how much water you used for outside watering needs and make sure you aren’t overpaying on your water bill.
