FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Plano-based plumbing expert publishes step-by-step DIY resource addressing region's #1 water heater problem while offering same-day professional service

PLANO, Texas (October 2025) - Staggs Plumbing, North Texas's trusted water heater specialist serving the region since 1990, today released an extensive educational guide addressing the area's most pressing water heater maintenance challenge: sediment buildup caused by hard water containing 7-10 grains of minerals per gallon. The comprehensive resource, "How to Flush a Water Heater: North Texas Homeowners Guide," provides both detailed DIY instructions and professional service options for the estimated 2.3 million households across DFW experiencing water heater issues.

The guide arrives as service calls for water heater problems have increased 40% over the past year, with popping and rumbling sounds being the primary complaint among North Texas homeowners. These concerning noises indicate dangerous sediment accumulation that reduces efficiency by up to 30% and shortens equipment life by 5-7 years if left untreated.

"Most homeowners don't realize that North Texas's mineral-rich water accelerates sediment formation three times faster than the national average," said Randy Staggs, Master Plumber and Owner of Staggs Plumbing (Texas Master Plumber License M-17697). "After 35 years serving this community, we've seen how proper maintenance can double a water heater's lifespan. We created this guide because we believe every homeowner deserves access to professional-grade knowledge, whether they choose DIY maintenance or professional service."

Key Resource Highlights:

The published guide features a 9-step process with photo documentation, covering both gas and electric water heaters. Unique elements include the professional "pulse-flush" technique that removes compacted sediment traditional draining misses, specific warnings about North Texas's hard water challenges, and a detailed troubleshooting section for common DIY pitfalls.

Safety considerations receive special emphasis, particularly the critical warning about electric water heater elements that burn out in under 30 seconds if powered without water - a mistake affecting 1 in 5 DIY attempts according to company service data compiled over three decades.

"We've serviced over 10,000 water heaters across DFW since 1990, and improper flushing causes more emergency calls than any other maintenance issue," added Staggs. "By sharing our professional techniques developed over 35 years and clearly marking the danger zones, we're helping homeowners make informed decisions about when to DIY and when to call for help."

Immediate Service Available:

While empowering DIY maintenance, Staggs Plumbing maintains 24/7 emergency response with 45-minute arrival times throughout Plano, Dallas, Fort Worth, Richardson, Allen, McKinney, Frisco, and surrounding communities. The company's professional power flush service includes a 21-point inspection, anode rod check, and condition report - elements impossible to achieve with DIY methods.

The guide specifically addresses regional challenges including gate valve failures common in older North Texas homes, mineral buildup patterns specific to local water chemistry that the company has documented since 1990, and temperature considerations for Texas's extreme weather conditions affecting outdoor drainage.
