Cold Showers in Goldmine: How This Family Got Their Hot Water Back Fast

In Goldmine, tucked between quiet streets and shady trees, the Harper family was battling an all-too-common Mobile problem:

“Our water heater takes forever — and the water doesn’t even stay hot.”

It started slow — showers that cooled too fast, a water heater that rumbled when it ran. But when the hot water cut off completely during a Monday morning rush, they knew it was time to call Adams Plumbing & Drain Company.

Here’s how we helped them make the smart call — and how we can do the same for your Goldmine home.


🔍 The Problem: An Old, Tired Water Heater

The Harpers had a standard 40-gallon electric tank, original to the house — almost 13 years old.
When we arrived, we noticed:

  • Heavy sediment buildup at the bottom of the tank
  • A corroded anode rod
  • A weak heating element
  • Rust forming near the outlet valve

The system was hanging on by a thread — and costing them extra each month in electricity.


🔧 The Solution: Fast, Efficient Replacement

We walked them through their options and helped them select a new AO Smith electric tank water heater with energy-efficient features.
The installation included:

  • Full removal of the old tank
  • New shut-off valve and supply lines
  • Pressure relief valve and drain pan
  • Quick flush and system test

We had them up and running in under 3 hours. No mess. No cold showers the next morning.

✅ The Results

The Harpers called back the next week to say:

  • “Showers are hotter, faster, and quieter.”
  • “Our electric bill dropped $27 in one month.”
  • “The whole install was easier than we expected.”

This is the kind of peace of mind we bring to Goldmine homeowners every week — no pressure, no gimmicks. Just honest advice and solid work.
