As a homeowner, few things can be more distressing than discovering your water heater isn't working properly. Not only is it disruptive to your daily routine, but it can also lead to an unexpected and costly repair if not addressed in time. Dutton Plumbing, Inc. understands the importance of a reliable water heater and is here to help you recognize the top signs that yours might need professional attention.
One of the most noticeable indicators that your water heater requires maintenance or repair is inconsistent water temperature. If you find that your water fluctuates between hot and cold or never quite reaches the desired temperature, it could be due to a faulty thermostat or a build-up of sediment. In these cases, our experienced plumbers can diagnose the issue effectively and recommend the best course of action.
Another common sign of a failing water heater is strange noises coming from the unit. Sounds like popping, banging, or rumbling often suggest that sediment has settled and hardened at the bottom of the tank. This not only reduces the efficiency of your heater but can also lead to more serious damage if left unaddressed. Dutton Plumbing offers comprehensive maintenance services that include flushing your system to remove any build-up, thus restoring your water heater to peak performance.
Water discoloration is a red flag not to be ignored. If your hot water is rusty, it could indicate corrosion within your water heater or your pipes. While discolored water is sometimes a sign of pipe rust, it frequently points to an ailing water heater, especially if it is over ten years old. Our skilled technicians can assess the situation and determine whether repair or replacement is the better option for you.
Decreasing water pressure sometimes accompanies problems within your water heater. Sediment build-up not only affects water temperature but can also obstruct water flow, leading to diminished pressure. Our team at Dutton Plumbing excels in identifying blockages and will provide you with a clear plan to restore proper water pressure throughout your home.
Lastly, pooling water around your heater or visible leaks should prompt immediate action. Leaks can quickly escalate from a minor inconvenience to a significant water damage issue. Dutton Plumbing offers emergency services to address leaks promptly, preventing further complications to your home.
