Signs You Need Water Heater Repair or Replacement

Inconsistent or No Hot Water

If you notice that your water temperature is fluctuating or that you have no hot water at all, it could mean that your water heater’s heating elements or thermostat are malfunctioning. This may be a sign that repair is necessary.

Water Leaks Around the Heater

Leaks around your water heater may indicate a crack or corrosion in the tank or pipes. A leak can cause significant water damage, so it’s essential to call a plumber as soon as you notice one.

Strange Noises Coming from the Tank

If you hear popping, rumbling, or hissing sounds coming from your water heater, it could mean that sediment is building up inside the tank. This sediment can cause inefficient heating and even damage the tank. In some cases, a repair may be enough, but in more severe cases, replacement may be necessary.

Discolored or Smelly Water

If your hot water is coming out rusty or has a metallic smell, it could indicate that the inside of your water heater is corroding. This is a sign that your water heater is aging and may need to be replaced soon.
