Water Heater Code Compliance and Efficiency Boost

We recently tackled a challenge that many property owners face - upgrading an outdated water heater to not only meet code but to operate more efficiently. Our team at Silverback Plumbing took on the task with precision and expertise, ensuring that all systems are up to standard for safety and performance.

One major addition we made is installing an expansion tank, which protects your system from pressure fluctuations. We also added a pan for safe drainage outside the building and connected a temperature and pressure relief valve drain. A sediment trap on the gas line ensures smooth operation, and upgrading to a 4-inch flue vent on an 18-inch platform enhances air flow and prevents potential hazards.

Our upgrades ensure the water heater is fully code-compliant and ready to serve for years. It's work like this that makes us proud, knowing we are adding value to the community through safety and innovation. We're always ready to help you with your water heater needs, whether it’s installation, maintenance, or inspection.
