Commercial Water Heaters Westwood NJ
Keep Your Business Running When the Hot Water Stops
Restaurant owner called me at 5 AM last Saturday. No hot water, health inspector coming Monday, fully booked weekend. Their commercial heater had been limping along for months, finally died at the worst moment.
By 10 AM, they had hot water. By lunch, customers had no idea there'd been a crisis. That's what 60 years servicing Westwood businesses teaches you - commercial water heater failures don't care about your schedule. H. Hofmeister & Co. Inc. keeps Bergen County businesses running when equipment fails.

Why Commercial Water Heaters Die Faster in Bergen County
Your business water heater works harder than ten residential units combined. Restaurant dishwashers, salon hair washing, gym showers - constant demand destroys equipment.
Commercial Killers We See Monthly
-
Scale buildup from our hard water
-
Undersized units overworking constantly
-
No maintenance for years
-
Improper venting causing backdrafting
-
Cheap installations failing early
-
Temperature set dangerously high
That restaurant on Westwood Avenue running their heater at 180 degrees? It's dying fster than necessary. The office building trying to run residential heaters? They fail every two years. Commercial needs commercial equipment.
What to Do Right Now (Before We Arrive)
Check Multiple Units
Most commercial setups have several heaters. Which ones working? Isolate the problem. Maybe you can limp along until we arrive.
Warn Your Staff
No hot water affects everything. Kitchen can't sanitize. Bathrooms have no warm water. Adjust operations immediately. Health code violations aren't worth it.
Document for Insurance
Commercial equipment failures might be covered. Take photos, note when problems started. Keep our service records. Claims go smoother with documentation.
Where Commercial Failures Hurt Most

Cascade Failures
One dead heater overworks others. They fail faster. Suddenly, total hot water loss. Seen it happen to three Emerson businesses this year alone.
Apartment building in Closter ignored one failed heater. Other two worked harder, both died within months. What should've been $3,000 became $10,000 plus angry tenants.
