Water Heater Removal
in Roselle
A dead water heater is a heavy steel tank that will not come out of a tight basement on its own. We drain it, carry it out, and recycle the metal.
The tank taking up the utility room
A retired water heater is dead weight in the most literal sense. Sediment settles and hardens in the bottom, so a standard tank can clear 150 pounds, and it almost always sits hemmed in by pipes and a furnace. Trying to lift one out alone is how people hurt their backs and dent their walls. We drain the tank first, then carry it out with the right number of hands, keeping the door frames and stairs clean.
Roselle straddles the DuPage and Cook county line along Lake Street and Irving Park Road, and we reach it up I-355 and over Route 390. White goods here are collected by appointment only, not with the weekly refuse, which is why an old tank tends to linger. We handle the whole job: we shut the supply, drain the heater, disconnect the visible lines, and recycle the steel.
Water heaters and tanks we take
Standard tank heaters
Common 40 and 50 gallon tanks, drained and lifted out of the utility room.
Gas water heaters
Gas units carried out once the gas line has been capped by a plumber or the gas company.
Electric water heaters
Electric tanks removed after the wiring is disconnected at the panel.
Rusted and leaking tanks
Heaters that have corroded or begun to leak, drained and hauled before they fail.
Tankless heaters
Wall-mounted tankless units taken down once the connections are off.
Softeners alongside
The water softener and brine tank standing next to the heater, cleared in the same trip.
