Highland Park's older housing stock โ particularly the early 1900s and pre-war homes near the lakefront, downtown, and Ravinia โ carries meaningful water heater failure risk as units reach the end of their service life. A standard draft tank that has been in place for 15 or more years can fail with little warning, especially in homes where the unit may have already been replaced multiple times. Premier dispatches from nearby Barrington 24 hours a day with standard draft and power vent units stocked for most same-day Highland Park emergency replacements.
The valve is at the top of the unit. Turn clockwise to stop water entering the tank and limit what can escape.
The control dial is on the front of the unit. Turn from HOT to PILOT or OFF. For electric units, flip the circuit breaker at your main panel.
