If you decide to repair later, this amount will be deducted from the repair quote.

If it is between five and eight years old, it depends. If the fault is the heating element and the rest of the appliance is in good condition, repair it. If there is a leak in the tank or an internal weld, replace it, because the leak will soon reappear elsewhere. Water takes longer to heat than in the first year. It comes out hotter at first and then cools quickly. You notice abnormally high electricity consumption on your bill. There are kettle-like noises, indicating bubbling at the bottom of the tank due to sediment. The water comes out slightly cloudy for the first few seconds. Any of these symptoms justifies a review. The reason is the limescale that accumulates inside the tank. The electric heating element that heats the water becomes coated with an increasingly thick layer that acts as an insulator. The thermostat detects that it is not reaching the target temperature and sends more current. The bill goes up, the appliance heats less effectively, and eventually, the element burns out. Sometimes the tank bursts from the inside, leading to a catastrophic leak that floods the laundry room.

As it is a professional installation with an invoice, the manufacturer respects its official warranty (2-5 years depending on the brand). We add a 30-day warranty on our labour. Oversizing penalises the electricity bill because the appliance uses more energy to keep a volume hot that you never use. Undersizing results in cold showers at the end of the morning family rush. We calculate needs before proposing a model. The water on the Costa Blanca has an average hardness of 30-40 French degrees. This means that a standard electric water heater of any brand, installed without any special care, lasts between five and eight years before starting to give serious problems. Compared to an identical water heater installed in soft water areas like Galicia or northern Catalonia, where it lasts twelve or fifteen years without problems, the difference is brutal and ultimately impacts your wallet.

The price of drain unblocking in El Bon Pastor usually ranges from 53 to 546 euros. The final figure depends on the condition of the property, the materials, and the working time. We always provide a fixed quote before starting. For holiday apartments or small properties without a gas connection, an electric water heater is the only reasonable option. For villas or homes with natural gas available, the choice between a larger capacity electric heater and a combined gas boiler depends on family consumption and the current price of gas versus electricity. Almost nobody knows it exists, but it's the part that adds the most lifespan to a water heater. It's a magnesium rod inside the tank that attracts corrosion to itself instead of letting it attack the tank walls. It wears down over time. When it's completely depleted, corrosion starts to eat away at the tank, and from then on, every year counts. We replace it every four or five years in hard water areas. Reasonable cost and easily extends the life of the appliance by ten more years.
