How to Know Your Water Heater Needs Repair

If you perform regular inspections and maintenance on your water heater, you’ll be able to stay ahead of many issues, but even a well-maintained water heater may develop one or more problems as a result of old age. Get to know these common signs your water heater needs repair:

Leaks

A leaking water heater is never good. A variety of possible reasons for leaking water heaters may be involved. Lack of maintenance, old age, faulty pressure relief valves, sediment build up… any one of these things can cause water heater leakage. If you spot water dripping from your heater, make a closer inspection immediately.

Inconsistent Hot Water

Whether the hot water is running out in five minutes or there are frequent fluctuations in water temperature, this is a sure sign something is up with your water heater. While you may notice it mostly in the shower or bath, the problem will persist for any fixture using hot water, so check them all if you suspect an issue.

Discolored Hot Water

Like the above, this is a pretty obvious sign something is foul in the state of water heaters. It’s a likely indicator of sediment accumulation in the tank, which can happen quickly in areas with hard water.

Foul Smells or Bad-Tasting Water

A metallic flavor to the water or the scent of rotten eggs can be easy to attribute to other causes, but you’ll want to check your water heater just to be safe. These odors could indicate the presence of bacteria in your water heater or that it’s time to replace the anode rod.

Tank Is Hot to the Touch

Water heaters are insulated, so they should always be safe to touch, if a little warm. If your water heater is overheating, there may be problems with the ventilation or insulation or it may be time to flush the tank of sediment.

Weird Noises

Banging, clanking, popping, hissing and rumbling whatever odd noise your water heater is making, take a look as soon as possible. Most sounds are innocuous, but some can indicate sediment build up especially if they persist.

Water Heater Maintenance Tips

• Flush your water heater every six months or so. If you have harder water, or water that contains more minerals, you may want to flush it more often.
• If you leave town, change your water heater to its vacation setting. The pilot light will stay on, but the water will not be heated.
• Drain your tank and remove sediment.
• Check your anode rod regularly, as it’s an important part of the water heater.
• If you notice your water heater leaking, it may be caused by a loose drain valve. Tighten with a wrench until snug.
• Test the temperature release valve annually.
• If your unit is older, insulate its pipes and the heater.
• Turn the thermostat to 120 degrees Fahrenheit.
• Tankless water heater maintenance: Good news about tankless water heaters is that they don’t require much maintenance. However, it’s recommended they be serviced once a year.
• Electric vs. gas water heater maintenance: Both electric water heaters and gas water heaters can be maintained in similar ways. Both types of water heaters should be flushed regularly to prevent a build-up of rust and corrosion.
• If you’re looking for more energy-efficient water heaters, look into hybrid water heaters.
