Plumbing Choices 

Robert H. Ranck offers a full range of plumbing services. In addition to routine installation, repair, drain cleaning and maintenance, our services include:

  • Water Treatment Solutions: Water in need of conditioning or treatment can be as harmful to your plumbing and heating as it is to family health. While some areas have corrosive acidic water that eats away at  fixtures, pipes, heaters and boiters, most Lancaster area wells have hard water which leaves residues that can clog plumbing, reduce water pressure and damage appliances and fixtures.

    And living in a farming community like ours can mean elevated levels of nitrates and colliform bacteria. Robert H. Ranck will test your water and where necessary, install the treatments that will bring your family's water back into balance and safety.

    Those who rely on public water systems need not worry about safety, but may have concerns about mineral content, addititives such as chlorine, or may simply be looking for a better tasting water.

  • Comfortable, Economical, Functional Living Solutions:  There are few things mor luxurious than a well-appointed bathroom. Yet safety as well as water and energy conservation and savings are as important considerations in today's bath design.

    Whether your bathroom requires a few cosmetic or safety changes or a complete work-over, we are here to help. Our design team will work with you to incorporate your vision with your budget to create a highly functional space to meet your family's needs. Learn more about bath safety and senior comfort.
  • Water Heaters:  We offer a wide range of water heating solutions, including energy- and water-saving tankless on-demand heaters and a revolutionary ultra-efficient heat-pump that can be added on to your current water heater. We also offer inspections to assure that your water heater will last longer and always operate at peak efficiency and safety.

    Those with traditional storage water heaters should have them checked periodically. All water heaters have a "sacrificial" anode rod. Its highly reactive metal attracts corroding ions thus protecting the less reactive tank liner. When it is depeleted, rusting, tank failure and home flooding soon follow. Timely replacement can as much as double the life of your water heater.

    Robert H. Ranck is apparently the only area company that routinely peforms this important check. 639 plumbers are listed in greater Lancaster by YellowPages.com. Yet according to our Lancaster supply house, 44.4% of the anode rods sold in 2009 were purchased by Robert H. Ranck, Inc. We offer everyone with a 10-year or older water heater FREE membership in our Water Heater Savings Club which includes FREE bi-annual inspections, special discounts on replacements and other great benefits.

    Fuel-burning heaters should be checked annually for proper draft. Carbon monoxide leakage can be deadly, but even very small amounts can seriously affect family health. Symptoms of low level of exposure are often mistaken for cold, flu and other respiratory conditions.
  • Water Pumps:  For those home owners with personal wells, there's no more important system than your pump. When it shuts down, your family is cut off from one of the basic essentials of life. Robert H. Ranck, Inc. keeps a trailer fully stocked with pumps and parts so that we are ready to respond quickly to your emergency.
  • Home Flood Prevention Solutions:  Ask about our newest products. Named as one of Readers Digest's top 100 new products of 2004, the FloodStop system detects leaks as soon as they start and alerts you with an alarm while automatically shutting off supply valves to water heaters, clothes washers, dish washers, ice-makers, toilets, sinks or even to your entire home. A small investment now can save you the heartache and expense that comes with flooding and the mold and mildew damage that so often follows.
