Westbrook questions
Rust at the base of the tank usually means the steel is corroding, often from a damp crawlspace. If the tank is leaking, it cannot be repaired and needs replacing. If it is only surface rust, raising it on a stand and fixing moisture may help. We check carefully first.
Pilot, thermocouple or igniter usually takes about 1 to 2 hours, and electric element or thermostat takes about 1 to 2 hours. Westbrook is about 20 minutes from our shop, so the drive adds little to your visit. We confirm the time with you when you book.
Sediment has built up on the bottom of the tank. Water trapped under it boils and pops as the burner or element heats. A flush can help if the tank is not too old. On older tanks, heavy sediment can mean the tank is close to the end of its life.
