Signs Your Water Heater Needs Repair

Being aware of certain warning signs can assist you in solving problems with your water heater at their initial stage before they evolve into something more serious or even cause the replacement of the whole unit. Pay special attention to these common signs of a water heater that needs servicing:

Inconsistent Temperatures of Water: If you suddenly notice a change in your shower’s temperature – either too cool or too warm- your heating components or the thermostat is faulty.

Popping or Rumbling Noises: The tank of your heater produces such sounds when there is a lot of sediment collected at its bottom, causing your unit to overheat and to work harder.

Discoloured or Rusty Water: Discoloured or rusty water from your water taps may indicate that your tank’s inner parts have been rusted or damaged.

Water Collecting at the Bottom: Any traces of water leaking out or forming pools around the water heater imply a problem with the valve or tank fittings.

Decreased Hot Water Flow: A decreased rate of water flow, especially during the use of hot water, implies that mineral buildups are clogging your plumbing system and heating equipment.

Stinky Hot Water: Your hot water has a smell of sulphur and/or eggs because of the bacteria growing in your water heater as a result of the broken anode rod.

Increased Time to Heat the Water: Your water heater requires much more time to heat up the water due to problems with the heating elements or gas burners.

Common Water Heater Problems We Repair

Water heater replacement parts include a variety of mechanical and electrical components which are prone to malfunction over time. Our professional plumbers specialize in diagnosing and fixing any problem associated with your plumbing:

Malfunctioning Thermostat: A broken thermostat leads to random water temperature settings, thus providing water which is too hot or too cold.

Damaged Heating Elements: In case of an electric water heater, damaged heating elements will fail to heat the water in the tank, leading to a cold water supply.

Sediment Deposits and Flushing: Due to hard water deposits, sediment accumulates on the bottom of the tank. This problem is solved through flushing the system and removing sediment deposits.

Defective Pressure Relief Valve: The temperature and pressure relief valve is a safety component of the water heater. It is supposed to relieve water under excessive temperature and pressure.

Pilot Light and Gas Control Problems: If there is any problem with the thermocouple, the gas valve or even with the burners, the pilot light won’t be able to stay on.

Worn Out Anode Rods: These anode rods attract all the corrosives to themselves in order to protect the steel tank. When the anode rods wear out, corrosion attacks the main body.

Leaky Lines and Valves: The supply lines can become loose, and the drain valves could wear out to cause continuous leaking.
