New Haven questions
Repeated shut-offs often point to a failing thermocouple or flame sensor, or a draft safety switch tripping because the chimney is not venting well. Older New Haven chimneys are a common cause. We test the controls and the vent so the fix lasts.
Pilot, thermocouple or igniter usually takes about 1 to 2 hours, and electric element or thermostat takes about 1 to 2 hours. New Haven is about 40 minutes from our shop, so the drive adds little to your visit. We confirm the time with you when you book.
Sediment has built up on the bottom of the tank. Water trapped under it boils and pops as the burner or element heats. A flush can help if the tank is not too old. On older tanks, heavy sediment can mean the tank is close to the end of its life.
