How Do I Know My Water Heater Needs a Repair or Service?

Having a reliable water heater is essential to any home, but over time, repairs may be necessary.

There are several signs that indicate a water heater needs repair or replacement, such as:

  • Rusty and Discolored Water. One of the most common signs of an issue with the unit is rusty-colored water coming from the hot taps. This could mean there's rust in either the tank or pipes and requires immediate attention.
  • Water Heater Tank Leaks. Other warning signs include leaking around the base of the tank, frequent cycling on and off, strange noises coming from the unit, and inadequate hot water supply.
  • Your Water Heater's Age. Additionally, if your water heater is between 10-15 years old it may need to be replaced rather than repaired as older models are not as efficient and can be unsafe due to age-related corrosion.

It's always better to address repair needs quickly rather than waiting until there's significant damage that requires costly repairs or complete replacement of your system.

Taking care of minor repairs now will ensure you have a consistent hot water supply for your entire household in the long run.

What is the most common problem with water heaters?

One of the most common problems with water heaters is the buildup of sediment or minerals in the tank. This sediment can affect the efficiency and performance of the water heater, leading to reduced hot water output and potential damage to the unit.

Is it better to fix or replace a water heater?

The decision to fix or replace a water heater depends on the specific circumstances. In general, if the water heater is relatively new and the issue is minor, repair might be the more cost-effective option. However, if the water heater is old, experiencing frequent problems, or the repair cost is significant, it may be more beneficial to replace the unit with a newer, more efficient model.

What are the signs your water heater is going out?

  There are several signs that indicate a water heater is approaching the end of its lifespan or experiencing issues:

  • Insufficient hot water or a decrease in water temperature.
  • Rusty or discolored water coming from the faucets.
  • Strange noises, such as popping or rumbling sounds, from the water heater.
  • Leaks or puddles around the unit.
  • Age of the water heater, typically over 10-15 years.

What causes hot water to stop running? Several factors can cause hot water to stop running:

  • A faulty or malfunctioning heating element in an electric water heater.
  • A broken or malfunctioning thermostat that is not properly detecting or maintaining the desired water temperature.
  • Sediment buildup in the tank, can block the heat transfer and reduce the amount of available hot water.
  • Issues with the gas supply, such as a gas valve problem or a pilot light that has gone out in a gas water heater.
  • A plumbing problem, such as a blocked or leaking pipe, is preventing the flow of hot water.

It is recommended to consult a professional plumber to diagnose and address any issues with your water heater to ensure safe and efficient operation.
