Troubleshooting Water Heater Problems in San Diego
Water heater problems can be difficult to detect without professional training- that is, until it stops working entirely. By knowing the signs to look out for, you may be able to prevent a small repair from turning into a total replacement. It is important you call for professional help when you notice these signs, rather than trying to fix your water heater yourself. DIY water heater repairs can be extremely dangerous, especially with gas water heaters that rely on a pilot light.
A few signs that your water heater needs to be repaired or replaced include:
- Leaking hot water tank
- No hot water
- Insufficient hot water
- Loud, odd sounds from tank
- Discolored water
The two most common types of water heaters we see are gas and electric systems. A gas water heater uses a pilot light to ignite the unit, and when this component is malfunctioning, it will be unable to provide the house with hot water. Alternatively, with an electric water heater, a tripped circuit or a blown fuse could point to reasons why the water heater refuses to work. Our San Diego plumbing service company at HPS Plumbing Services can locate the problem with your water heater, and no matter if you have a gas or electric unit, we can offer support and suggestions on repairs, new installations, and even replacements if necessary!
How Often Should You Clean Your Water Heater?
Ideally your water heater should be flushed once a year. An annual flushing helps combat building sediment in the bottom of your tank and prevents leaking overtime. Letting the sediment build up not only raises the potential for leaking, it makes your water heater work harder and shortens it's lifetime.
Installation & Replacement of Water Heaters
Are you noticing leaks in your water heater? Does it continuously turn on and off? If your hot water heater is more than 10-15 years old and keeps running into problems, it is likely time to consider replacing it. Fortunately, newer units are much more efficient and in the long run, you will likely experience cost savings. Our San Diego water heater repair specialists can handle the replacement or installation process from start to finish.
