Decision support

Water Heater Emergencies in Keller

Keller's notably hard water, 15 to 25 grains per gallon, accelerates mineral scale buildup inside water heaters, and homes that have added an outdoor kitchen or pool heater as part of the city's documented appliance boom should also flag whether gas line capacity is a factor.

• Reduced hot water output often points to mineral scale buildup from Keller's notably hard water
• Homes that recently added an outdoor kitchen or pool heater should mention this, since Keller has documented gas line capacity strain from this trend
• Periodic water heater flushing can help limit scale buildup
• Mention whether your home is in Hidden Lakes or Marshall Ridge when requesting service
