How Can I Tell If My Water Heater Needs to Be Repaired or Replaced?
Here are some of the most common water heater issues and how Plumbing Services CA typically suggests resolving them:
My water heater doesn’t produce enough hot water
Possible causes:
- The thermostat isn’t set properly.
- The tank isn’t big enough.
- The tank is leaking.
- The dip tube is broken.
- The heating element is malfunctioning.
Possible fixes:
- Reset and adjust the thermostat to the correct temperature (usually 120 degrees).
- Replace the existing tank with a larger one.
- Patch the tank leak.
- Repair or replace the dip tube.
- Repair or replace the heating element.
Verdict: An expert can probably repair the problem but may suggest upgrading to a larger water tank.
Water takes too long to heat up
Possible causes:
- The heating element is malfunctioning.
- Sediment or rust are preventing the element from heating the water properly.
Possible fixes:
- Replace the heating element.
- Drain and flush the tank to remove sediment.
- Replace the tank.
Verdict: Replacing the heating element is a simple job. If too much sediment has built up, however, we’ll recommend you replace your tank.
My hot water is rust-colored or smelly
Possible causes:
- There is a high concentration of sulfates in your tank, probably from sediment buildup.
- The anode rod is rusted or corroded.
Possible fixes:
- Drain and flush the tank.
- Replace the anode rod.
Verdict: Replacing the anode rod is a simple repair job. If sediment buildup is too significant, however, we’ll recommend you replace your water heater
Valve or tank is leaking
Possible causes:
- If the tank itself is leaking, it’s probably corroded from the inside.
- If a valve is leaking, then the temperature-relief or pressure relief valve may be damaged.
Possible fixes:
- If the tank is leaking, the only fix is replacing it.
- If valves are leaking, we may be able to replace them without replacing the entire tank.
Verdict: Determine where the leak is coming from. If the tank itself is leaking, call experts to help you replace it right away.
