Frequently Asked Questions
There are many reasons why a water heater isn’t supplying hot water. One of the most common issues in gas water heaters is when the pilot light goes out. Many people can relight the pilot light without assistance but sometimes may need to call a technician for help. Electric water heaters may not heat water if the thermostat becomes faulty or the breaker trips. If resetting the breaker does not help, you may need to have the thermostat checked.
If the water heater is housed outside, first check that the hood and housing are intact if it has rained recently. Many water heaters are located indoors. Your water heater should not leak, so it’s a bad sign if you see water leaking below it. Some leaks are minor, and you might be able to fix them by replacing a fitting or some part of the plumbing going into the water heater. But leaks from the bottom of the water heater could be a sign that the internal tank has a crack. If this is the case, you will probably need to replace the water heater.
There are many models with different capacities. To determine the right water heater for you, consider your budget, the size of your home, and your family’s needs. Sizes can range from 30 gallons up to 100 gallons. If you are running out of hot water often and the water heater is in good condition, then you may need to get a water heater with a higher capacity. However, if you are not using a lot of hot water, then a smaller tank will be more budget-friendly and environmentally friendly.
If the water heater is damaged or cracked, it is time to replace it. Many people also choose to replace their water heater if it is not the appropriate size for their home and their needs. Experts recommend that most people replace their water heater every 10-15 years if they have a tank water heater. Tankless water heaters can last up to 20 years before needing replacement. If you are not the original owner of the water heater, you can determine the age of the water heater from the serial number.
There are different types of water heaters. Tank water heaters store water in a tank which can range from 30 to 100 gallons for the typical home. Usually, tank water heaters are less expensive to purchase and install. Tankless water heaters heat water on demand. While the upfront costs associated with tankless water heaters are higher, they are also more energy-efficient over time. In the past, tank water heaters were considered a better option for larger homes, but innovations in tankless water heaters have made them an excellent choice for most homes.
Proper maintenance is key to keeping your water heater in good condition. If you have a tank water heater, flush it once a year to clear out sediment buildup. You may live in an area with hard water, so check your anode rod and replace it if necessary. Some people also install a water treatment system to treat water for rust and minerals. Having a trusted technician or plumber who can perform maintenance is also a great way to extend the life of your water heater.

Ductless Heating & Cooling System
A Ductless Heating & Cooling System is an alternative to traditional air conditioning systems. It focuses on cooling specific rooms rather than evenly pumping air throughout your house. Parts of a ductless system include an indoor unit to use refrigerant, and outdoor unit to pump and cool the refrigerant, and a wireless control unit to give you the flexibility to adjust temperature and fan speed at the touch of a button. If this all seems complicated never fear! By trusting the expertise at Cyprus Air Heating and Cooling, you can be sure you are making the right decision for your home, or business. We offer myriad models each designed with specific applications to suit your needs. Call one of our technicians today with any questions.
Air Duct Cleaning
Do you know there could be piles of dirt build up in your air ducts? If you’ve never gotten you ducts cleaned, you’d probably be shocked at the build-up inside your home. Debris left in you air duct will have negative effects on your health, especially if someone in your home is sensitive to allergens. Similar to maintenance on your air conditioning and furnace, will improve the efficiency of your HVAC unit, saving you money! Clean ducts mean your system won’t have to push as hard to deliver air throughout your home, and the air that does circulate through your home won’t carry excess dust with it. A dust cleaning includes sealing up any leaks in your system and cleaning out dust and debris build up inside the vents.

Water Heater
Water Heater
The water heater is one part of the plumbing system that most homeowners don't give much thought too, even though they use it every day. Your water heater provides you with the heated water to bathe with, clean with, and cook with, and should be cared for properly if you expect it to last. The advantages of the tankless water heater are they are more energy efficient, less wait time for hot water, and have an extended life compared to a traditional water heater. Call Cyprus Air and we’ll send a technician to estimate the cost of an installation or replacement.
Water Heater Options
Professional installation is just the beginning of proper water heater care, but it’s a very important part. One of the biggest considerations you’ll need to make, after choosing between an electric or a gas-powered water heater, is whether you want a storage tank water heater, or a tankless system.
Tankless Water Heaters
Tankless water heaters, as the name implies, do not require a tank. Instead of storing a reservoir of hot water, these are "on-demand" systems that supply hot water using heat exchangers when you turn on a hot water tap in your home.
Tanked Water Heaters
This is most often the type of water heater found in homes throughout Johns Creek and the surrounding communities. Today, they are built with safety and efficiency in mind, and built to last a very long time. But if you have a smaller family and aren’t getting through the entire tank of water each day, then you are wasting energy, which could add up to be costly.
