Home » Dries Residential Water Heaters & Softeners Service
Your water heater stops working on the coldest day of winter. Your water softener clogs when your house is full of guests. These breakdowns happen at the worst possible moments, and they need immediate attention from experienced plumbers.
Since 1933, Dries Plumbing has repaired every type of water system failure that Peoria homes can experience. Our trucks carry the parts and tools needed because we've learned what breaks and when.
Hot water should be instant and endless. When your system fails, the signs are obvious: cold showers, strange noises, pooling water, or that unmistakable smell of gas.
Dries’ plumbers handle these common problems:
Lukewarm water that never gets hot enough
Ignitors that won't light or stay lit
Blinking warning lights you can't decode
Gas odors near your unit
Puddles forming in the drip pan
Popping pressure relief valves
Don't ignore these warning signs. A small leak today becomes a flooded basement tomorrow.Gas smells require immediate professional attention. Water in the pan means your tank is
leaking, and water heater replacement is inevitable. Don't wait for a flood.We install and replace:
Standard tank water heaters sized correctly for your household
Tankless systems for unlimited hot water
Expansion tanks to protect your investment
Circulation pumps that deliver hot water instantly
Complete system upgrades and retrofits
Thinking about a tankless water heater? We'll calculate your usage and show you whether or not you could benefit from making the switch.
When Should I Replace My Water Softener?
Hard water in your system can cause damage. Soap scum coats your shower. White spots appear on your dishes. Your skin feels tight after bathing. Worst of all, mineral buildup slowly clogs your pipes and appliances.Replace your softener when:
Soap won't lather despite using more product
Dishes come out spotted, no matter how you wash them
Faucets and showerheads clog with white buildup
Laundry feels rough and looks dingy
Your skin feels tight and itchy after bathing
Our water softener services:
Complete replacement with proper sizing
Water testing to determine the correct capacity
Salt-efficient models that require less maintenance
Professional installation with bypass valves
Most problems stem from incorrect sizing. Homeowners often purchase a softener based on price rather than capacity, then wonder why they still have hard water. We test your water first, then size accordingly.
