Water Heaters

There are many options on the market today for water heaters. A few of the factors to take into consideration are the different types of water heaters. Do you want electric, gas, tankless, or high efficiency? What size do you need?

Getting all these components correct for your lifestyle needs and budget takes a professional hand. The same goes for your water heater repairs and maintenance. Let us help.

Water Softeners

If your home has hard water, more than likely you could benefit from a water softener. Having hard water contributes to mineral buildup inside anything that uses water—such as your pipes, water heater, toilets, faucets, and small appliances.

This buildup, commonly composed of minerals like calcium and magnesium, can cause damage in several ways. A water softener can help combat this issue for you.

Water Filtration & Whole-House Filters

It is so important to filter the water you drink today, whether it’s the water coming from your kitchen faucet or your refrigerator. Water filtration helps remove unwanted and damaging particles and pollutants from water. Depending on your home’s water makeup and what your unique requirements may be, our experienced plumbers can help you select the best water filter for your specific needs and expectations.

There are different types of whole-house water filters designed to target and remove various contaminants from all the water in your home. Contingent on the type and model, whole-house filters are most commonly installed where your water enters your home, working to filter sediment, chemicals, contaminants, and different-sized particles from your water.

At Reliant Heating & Cooling, we offer and work with numerous filter types. Let us help you find the right one for you.

Garbage Disposals

Your garbage disposal does so much more than grinding food scraps.

It keeps your kitchen trash pail clean and odor-free. It helps decrease the amount of food that decays in landfills and emits greenhouse gas. It prevents food waste from clogging your plumbing and makes meal cleanup easy.

Your garbage disposal is one of the most hardworking appliances in your kitchen. It performs best when installed correctly, with the precision and craftsmanship that Reliant Heating & Cooling brings to every job.

Garbage Disposal Replacement and Installation

Garbage disposals last approximately 12 to 15 years if they are maintained. If your unit jams up frequently or makes loud noises, it may be time to replace it.

Every installation or replacement we handle is different because plumbing systems and electrical services vary from kitchen to kitchen. If this is your first garbage disposal, we can confirm if your plumbing is ready to handle a new appliance.

We can help you choose the best garbage disposal for your needs and budget. If you have a big family and frequently prepare meals at home, you may need a unit with more horsepower. Typically, more powerful garbage disposals are bigger than standard models. The space available under your sink may dictate the brand or model you choose.

• Do you want stainless steel or galvanized steel components in your new garbage disposal?
• Do you prefer a hard-wired model or one that plugs into an electrical outlet?
• Is continuous feed or batch feed better for your needs?

A continuous feed garbage disposal enables you to add scraps as it operates. Batch feed models only run when a safety stopper covers the drain.

Our experts can advise you about the many features available, including noise reduction technology, single- and multiple-stage grinding, push-button starters, and dishwasher drain connectors.

At Reliant Heating & Cooling, we offer convenient financing options to help you purchase the right equipment for your comfort and safety. Call us today for a free consultation.

Environmental Benefits

An estimated 35 million tons of food waste from commercial and residential sources end up in American landfills each year, according to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). Consider the fact that food waste is already comprised mostly of water. Grinding it into a fraction of its original size and sending it down the drain using a garbage disposal—as opposed to throwing it in the trash—helps reduce landfill pollution.

Garbage Disposal Repair

No matter how careful you are with your garbage disposal, breakdowns can happen. If your garbage disposal stops working or jams frequently, we can help. Contact us if you experience these problems:

• A garbage disposal that hums when you turn it on indicates it has power. Food or an object likely is jamming the grinding components.
• It works, but the water does not drain. The garbage disposal, the pipe under the sink, or the drain line likely is clogged.
• If you find water in your sink cabinet, the connections between pipes and your garbage disposal may be loose or a worn rubber gasket at the top of the garbage disposal may need replacement.

Maintain Your Garbage Disposal

You can extend the life of your new garbage disposal and prevent unexpected breakdowns with these simple maintenance tips:

• Keep your drain smelling fresh by grinding a few lemon peels.
• Refrain from grinding fibrous foods, such as celery, or hard waste, like fruit pits and chicken bones. Some garbage disposals with two- and three-stage grinding can handle tough food waste. Check the instructions for your model.
• Occasionally grind a few ice cubes to sharpen your garbage disposal's blades.
• Keep grease and shellfish shells out of your garbage disposal.
• Always run cold water while the garbage disposal is operating to help flush food particles through the drain. Let the water run for a few seconds after turning off the appliance.
• Avoid stuffing large amounts of food scraps into your garbage disposal.

Plumbing Repairs

The majority of needed plumbing repairs tend to be unexpected. When your toilet won’t flush or your laundry tub overflows creating a flood, you need a professional plumber you trust to diagnose and repair the issue quickly. Our reliable plumbers are here to take care of any plumbing repair you may have. We service all makes and models at Reliant Heating & Cooling.

Plumbing repairs are something you need to deal with immediately, as water can cause extensive and unhealthy conditions quickly. It can cause damage to most materials and can build a collection of spore-bearing mold and mildew very rapidly. Unfortunately, the longer you wait, the worse your water issue becomes.

Plumbing Maintenance

To ensure the longest life possible for any part of your plumbing, it’s essential to perform regular preventative maintenance on it. Being sure your pipes and plumbing fixtures are in working order isn’t all that different from regular oil changes for your car.

Keeping all parts clean and checking for wear and tear goes a long way in extending a life span. Some you can do on your own, but much of it requires a professional’s expertise. Preventative maintenance goes a long way in saving you money over the long term.

At Reliant Heating & Cooling, we recommend participating in our preventative maintenance agreement plan—Reliable Care Maintenance Program. We have options for every budget and need. Talk to us about the included discounts, priority scheduling, and much more when you sign up.
