Signs Your Water Heater Needs Repairs

A complete lack of hot water is an obvious sign that your water heater needs attention. If you are experiencing this issue, reach out to our team at MVP Home Services immediately to request emergency services. We offer same-day support and are available on weekends. 

Keep in mind that there are other, more subtle signs that also indicate a problem with your unit. Taking action early can prevent a complete failure and a costly premature replacement. 

Your water heater may need repairs if you are dealing with any of the following issues:

  • Unusual noises. Your water heater should operate fairly quietly. Clanging, rumbling, popping, or banging sounds often signal a build-up of sediment in your tank if you have a tank-based model. As the sediment heats, it can cause these noises and decrease the efficiency of your unit.
  • Leaking water. Puddles around the base of your water heater are a clear sign of a leak. Leaks can result from a failing temperature and pressure relief valve, a faulty drain valve, or a crack in the tank itself. We can inspect the source of the leak and provide a solution before it causes significant water damage.
  • Discolored or smelly water. If the hot water coming from your faucets appears rusty or has a metallic odor, it could indicate corrosion inside your water heater's tank. A rotten egg smell suggests a bacterial problem within your tank. These issues require prompt attention to protect your family's health and your plumbing system.
  • Inconsistent water temperature. When your water heater struggles to maintain a consistent temperature, you may experience random bursts of cold water during a shower. This issue often points to a faulty heating element or thermostat. Our plumbers can diagnose the exact cause and fix the problem.
  • Reduced hot water supply. A shorter supply of hot water than you are accustomed to can be a sign of a failing heating element, a malfunctioning dip tube, or sediment build-up in the tank. Our team can diagnose the issue and take steps to get your hot water supply back to normal.

How Much Maintenance Does My Water Heater Need?

Your water heater's maintenance needs vary depending on its type and usage. For a traditional tank-based water heater, we typically recommend a professional flush and inspection at least once a year. This process removes sediment that accumulates at the bottom of the tank, which can decrease efficiency and lead to corrosion over time. Tankless water heaters also usually need annual maintenance.

Our plumbing professionals can help you determine the ideal maintenance schedule for your specific water heating system. If your home has hard water, we may suggest more frequent maintenance for either type of water heater, as hard water accelerates mineral build-up. We can also install a water filtration solution to address hard water concerns.

What Should I Consider When Replacing My Water Heater? 

Selecting a new water heater can feel overwhelming with so many options available. Our plumbers can provide personalized guidance throughout the entire process, answering all your questions and helping you make an informed decision. 

We can consider your home or business's unique needs, your budget, and your hot water usage to recommend the best system for you. Our technicians regularly work with both tankless and standard tank water heaters, so we know how each type works and can complete installations swiftly and professionally.

When planning your water heater replacement, our experts can help you consider:

  • Fuel source. Water heaters can run on gas, electricity, or propane. The right choice for your home or business frequently depends on what is already available. A gas water heater typically heats water faster, while an electric model may be more energy-efficient in certain situations. We can discuss the pros and cons of each option for your property.
  • Tank vs. tankless. Traditional tank-based water heaters store and heat a large volume of water. They offer a reliable supply but can be less energy efficient. Tankless water heaters heat water as you need it, which can save energy and space. We can help you weigh the upfront costs and explain how tankless models can provide long-term savings.
