The root of this issue lies in your water heater. Every water heater – gas or electric – contains an anode rod. This component protects the water heater tank by slowly corroding so the tank doesn’t (giving them the name “sacrificial anodes”). However, when the anodes have completely broken down or aren’t functioning, the container will start to erode. And that’s where the rotten odor comes from. Blue Mountain Services can repair the water heater and install a new anode.

Rattling pipes are an easy fix if you can easily access all your water lines. They occur when the water lines are unsecured, causing them to move too much. In many cases, resolving this issue is more challenging because the builder of the house didn’t place the water lines in a convenient location. Our plumbers know how to get to hard-to-reach areas. Why Isn’t My Water Heater Producing Hot Water?
There could be an array of issues – from poor temperature control to a broken pilot – but Blue Mountain Services knows how to get to the bottom of them. We can also diagnose faulty thermocouple, gas valves, heating elements, and thermostats.
Tankless water heaters are more expensive, but they deliver a bevy of benefits to homeowners who want quicker access to hot water. Because they’re continuously storing hot water, but only activate when you turn a hot water faucet, they deliver almost instantaneous hot water.

They are electric, which gives them greater control over the temperature inside your building. Accuracy and efficiency are the two most significant advantages provided by programmable thermostats. Many modern thermostats also allow you to alter the temperature in your home with your smartphone!
If properly maintained then your furnace should last around 20 to 25 years. If you’re experiencing problems, and your furnace is less than 12 years old, Blue Mountain Services recommends repairs. However, there are circumstances where replacement is the best option. For instance, if the unit is over 12 years old, there is little point in spending more than half the cost of replacement on repairs. We can help determine the best course of action during our annual service inspection.

Home maintenance is an essential component of ensuring your furnace lasts as long as it should. Fortunately, most home maintenance tasks are straightforward and don’t monopolize your time. Blue Mountain Services offers in-depth yearly maintenance services, but we recommend periodic do-it-yourself tasks, such as: Change the air filters once every 3 months. Your local hardware stores usually sell them. If not, contact Blue Mountain Services. Clean around the furnace. Dust buildup can disrupt the heater, so it’s a good idea to sweep or dust around the indoor furnace regularly. Keep debris and objects at least two feet from the outdoor unit. Doing so will ensure there’s enough airflow.
