How Do We Detect Water Leaks?
At PlumbCrazy we use three methods to detect water leaks. From modern methods to tried and tested methods, we can quickly locate water leaks in your home and get started on repairs before additional damage occurs. The first method we usually try is meter detection, this involves testing the water pressure in your pipes and seeing how it stands up to the pressure of a healthy pipe.
If the pressure is low, we can tell there is a leak. Another method we use is infrared technology. Using an infrared camera, we are able to take pictures of the pipes at different angles to locate the leak. Digging and drilling is one of the oldest methods and involves digging into your floor or wall to find the leak.
Signs of a Gas Leak
If you experience any one of these signs, call the experts at PlumbCrazy right away. You may have a gas leak.
- Hissing sounds coming from the gas line.
- Smell of sulfur or rotten eggs.
- Dead grass or vegetation in your yard around the area where your gas line is located.
Breathing in the fumes from a gas leak can be lethal, it’s important to notice the signs and take action if you suspect a leak.

Tankless vs. Storage Tank Water Heaters: Which Is Right for You?
Most American homes have storage tank water heaters to supply families with hot water. Storage tank heaters are popular because they’re inexpensive, easy to install, and you can get large tanks to hold a lot of water. However, more homeowners are discovering the benefits of tankless water heaters. So which is right for you? Here are the pros and cons of both.
Tankless Pros:
- Supplies unlimited hot water.
- No waiting for water to get hot.
- Fits into small places.
- More energy efficient which saves you money on your energy bills.
- Can last twice as long as storage tank water heaters.
Tankless Cons:
- Expensive to install.
- Struggles to supply multiple streams of hot water at once.
- Larger units with greater capacity are expensive.
Storage Tank Pros:
- Lower cost to purchase and install.
- Simpler to operate, repair, and maintain.
- Cheaper to replace.
Storage Tank Cons:
- You can run out of hot water.
- Water takes longer to heat up.
- Larger tanks take up more space.
- Shorter lifespan than tankless.
As you can see, both have advantages and disadvantages. The common wisdom says, if you can afford the higher upfront cost, a tankless system is a way to go. You’ll love never running out of hot water and it can save money on your energy bills.
Depending on the size of your family and your hot water needs, either a tankless or traditional water heater might be right for you. If you’re not sure, call PlumbCrazy and let one of our experts assess your needs and recommend the best system for you.
