Frequently Asked Questions

How do I winterize my water heater if my house will be empty?

If the home will be completely unheated during a Utah winter, the water heater and all plumbing must be properly winterized to prevent freezing damage. Steps: shut off the main water supply, turn off power or gas to the water heater, connect a hose to the drain valve and drain the tank completely, open the hot water faucets throughout the house to release pressure and allow the system to drain, and open the T&P valve briefly to break the vacuum. A licensed plumber can winterize the full system in 1 to 2 hours.

What is the difference between Rheem and Ruud water heaters?

Rheem and Ruud are made by the same parent company (Rheem Manufacturing) in the same factories with identical internal components. The primary difference is the sales channel: Rheem units are sold through retail and contractors; Ruud units are sold exclusively through HVAC and plumbing wholesalers to licensed contractors. Because Ruud is contractor-only, it often comes with slightly more contractor-friendly features and warranties, though the core product is functionally the same.

Why do gas appliances need to be derated at high elevation in Utah?

At higher elevations, air is thinner -- there are fewer oxygen molecules per cubic foot. A gas burner designed for sea level will receive less oxygen at altitude, resulting in a richer fuel-to-air mixture, yellow flames, soot, and potentially dangerous CO production. The National Fuel Gas Code requires derating gas appliances approximately 4% per 1,000 feet above sea level. At Salt Lake City's elevation of roughly 4,300 feet, a 40,000 BTU burner should be derated to about 33,000 BTU.

When is the best time of year to replace a water heater?

Spring and fall are ideal: plumbers are less busy than in winter (when emergency calls spike during cold snaps) and summer (peak home improvement season). You are also less likely to be without hot water in an uncomfortable season. If your water heater is showing early warning signs -- minor leaks, slowing recovery time, or age over 10 years -- replacing it proactively in spring or fall on your schedule is far less stressful and often cheaper than an emergency replacement in January.
