Water Heater Repair & Installation

If you suspect that your water heater is not functioning properly, it’s important to be aware of signs that may indicate the need for repair.

Here are some common signs that your water heater may require attention:

• Lack of Hot Water: If your water heater is not producing hot water or if the water is not reaching the desired temperature, it could be a sign of a malfunction.
• Inadequate Hot Water Supply: If you’re running out of hot water more quickly than usual, or if the hot water supply is inconsistent, there may be a problem with the heating element or another component.
• Strange Noises: Unusual noises such as popping, rumbling, or banging sounds coming from the water heater may indicate sediment buildup or a problem with the heating element.
• Leaking Water: Any signs of water pooling around the base of the water heater could be indicative of a leak. Leaks can be caused by a variety of issues, including a faulty pressure relief valve or a leaking tank.
• Rusty Water: If the hot water appears discolored or has a rusty tint, it may suggest corrosion inside the tank. This could be a sign that the anode rod needs replacement or that the tank itself is deteriorating.
• Water Heater Age: The age of your water heater can be a factor. Most water heaters have a lifespan of around 8 to 12 years. If your unit is approaching or exceeding this age, it may be more prone to issues and could benefit from inspection or replacement.
• Fluctuating Water Temperature: If you notice sudden changes in water temperature, such as hot water turning cold or vice versa, it could be a sign of a malfunctioning thermostat or other heating element issues.
• High Energy Bills: A sudden increase in your energy bills without an apparent cause could be linked to an inefficient or malfunctioning water heater. If the system is working harder to heat water, it may consume more energy.
• Pilot Light Issues: For gas water heaters, issues with the pilot light, such as it going out frequently, may indicate a problem with the thermocouple or gas supply.

If you observe any of these signs, it’s advisable to contact a professional plumber or water heater repair service to assess and address the issue promptly. Regular maintenance can also help prevent problems and extend the life of your water heater.
