Schaumburg's predominantly power vent housing stock โ most built between the mid-1970s and early 1990s โ means the community is seeing a significant number of first- and second-replacement water heater calls as units reach the 15โ20 year mark. A power vent unit that fails in a Schaumburg finished basement can release its stored water before the supply valve is closed.
