Signs Your Water Heater Needs Repair
Are you paying attention to your water heater? Early detection can help prevent major malfunctions and system failure.
You need to call a plumber for water heater repair if you have:
- Water that’s too hot: If your water heater produces scalding hot water, it could indicate a malfunctioning thermostat or heating element. This wastes energy and can pose a safety hazard to your family.
- Water that’s not hot enough: When your water heater provides lukewarm water, it may be due to a faulty thermostat, a broken heating element, or sediment buildup in the tank. Addressing this promptly can save your system from further damage.
- Reduced hot water supply: A consistent shortage of hot water might signal an undersized water heater or an issue with the dip tube, which directs cold water to the bottom of the tank for heating. Ensuring your system is sized correctly is essential for meeting your household’s hot water needs.
- Discolored hot water: If your hot water is brown or rust-colored, it could be a sign of corrosion inside the tank or a failing anode rod. If not addressed promptly, this can affect water quality and lead to leaks and other damage.
Water Heater Repair vs. Replacement
Deciding between water heater replacement and repair depends on the age and condition of your system.
- If your water heater is relatively new and experiencing minor issues, such as a faulty thermostat or heating element, repair is often the most cost-effective solution.
-
If your water heater is over 10 years old and needs frequent or costly repairs, replacement may be a better option.
We’ll inspect your water heater and help you determine the best course of action for your specific situation.

It typically takes 30 to 60 minutes for your water heater to heat up the water to the desired temperature after a repair.
Why won't my pilot light stay lit?
A pilot light that won’t stay lit may be due to a faulty thermocouple, a kink in the flex tube, or a dirty pilot light.
Why does it take so long for my water to heat up?
If your water takes a long time to heat up, it could be due to a buildup of sediment in the tank, a malfunctioning heating element, a volume restrictor on your fixtures, or a low thermostat setting.
What does it mean if my water temperature keeps fluctuating?
This problem can be caused by many factors, such as a faulty thermostat, an improperly sized water heater, or a connection issue. A professional can properly diagnose and fix the issue right away.
The water pressure in my house is suddenly low. What's wrong?
You may have older pipes that need replacing, or there may be a lot of sediment buildup on your showerheads, in which case you may need to install water filters. Schedule an inspection with a professional technician as soon as possible.
