At Ensor Plumbing, we’ve spent over 60 years helping our neighbors in Owings Mills and the surrounding areas maintain reliable, functional homes. While the fundamentals of good plumbing haven’t changed, the technology certainly has.
Smart home innovation has moved beyond just thermostats and security cameras. Today, “smart plumbing” is transforming how we use water—making daily routines more efficient, eco-friendly, and more convenient. Whether you are looking to lower your utility bills or prevent a catastrophic leak, here is how modern plumbing upgrades are changing the game.
Smarter Hot Water: Precision Control Meets Longevity
One of the most frequent calls we get involves water heater replacement. Traditionally, homeowners had to choose between a standard tank and a tankless system. However, new advancements—like those found in Essency Water Heaters—are offering a “best of both worlds” solution. These systems combine the energy-efficient performance of tankless units with the reliable delivery of a traditional tank. Because they are engineered with high-tech polymers rather than metal, they offer incredible longevity. Key features we love for our customers include:- Precision Control: Manage water temperature and energy usage directly from your smartphone.
- Smart Modes: Easily switch to “Vacation Mode” or “Boost Mode” via Wi-Fi or Bluetooth.
- Leak Protection: Advanced designs that provide peace of mind for decades, not just years.
