If your water heater is malfunctioning, you shouldn’t ignore it – even if the problem seems small. Ignoring water heater problems of all types can lead to bigger, more expensive issues. Here are some signs it’s time to call in the professionals at Wisler in Roanoke, VA:
Â
No hot water is the most obvious sign that something is amiss with your water heater. It can be caused by a variety of issues, such as a malfunctioning heating element, thermostat, or gas supply.Â
Maybe you’re not completely out of hot water… but it’s still not reaching the temperature it should! If your water is only slightly warm, there could be a problem with the heating element, thermostat, or sediment buildup.
Running out hot water sooner than usual could indicate a problem with the tank’s capacity, sediment buildup, or a failing heating element.Â
Seeing rusty or brown water coming out of your shower or sinks can be unsightly. Different colors mean different things. Usually, rusty water is a sign of a corrosion inside the water heater tank. If your water is cloudy, brown, or green, this could be caused by sediment buildup or other issues.
Water temperature that fluctuates can be frustrating to say the least. Imagine stepping into a warm shower after a long day, and one minute the water is the perfect temperature and the next it’s like bathing in an ice bath! Inconsistent hot water temperatures can be caused by a variety of factors, like sediment buildup, a faulty thermostat, or issues with the heating element.
Hearing weird sounds coming from your water heater can sometimes remind you of a scary movie! If you hear unusual sounds like popping, rumbling, or banging, it could mean there’s internal problems that need to be looked at and addressed by a professional.
The water should stay inside the tank. If you notice water outside of it, then this is cause for concern! Any leaks from your water heater are a serious issue that need to be addressed promptly. They could indicate a cracked tank, loose connections, or other problems.
Is your water heater not turning on at all? That’s not good! This could mean there’s an issue with the power supply, gas supply, or the water heater’s control system.
