Signs of a Malfunctioning Water Heater

1

The Water Heater Is Leaking

Almost everyone will deal with a leak in their plumbing at some point or another. What’s more, different parts of your water heater can spring a leak, especially as they age. If the water heater has pools of standing water or leaks coming from nearby pipes, let us know! The severity of the problem can be partially recognized by where the leak formed.

For example, leaks near the top of the water heater mean the plumber should check the piping connections for signs of rust or any cracks. Generally, these kinds of leaks aren’t difficult to resolve. However, if the leak is closer to the bottom of the water heater, it could be a sign of a serious problem. In most cases it’s because the tank has cracked open due to age or extensive corrosion. In situations like this, you might be better off requesting water heater installation instead.

Water Is Too Hot or Cold

Inconsistent temperatures are sometimes caused by sediment buildup, a malfunctioning thermostat and even when the water heater’s heating element has failed (only relates to electric models). For gas water heaters, the problem might be a failed pilot light, which is usually because it’s dirty or malfunctioning. When you notice a sudden drop in your supply of hot water or if it’s taking longer than usual to heat up, call a Ken Griffin Plumbing Services plumbing technician.

Rust or Discoloration

As your water heater ages, it’s more susceptible to mineral and chemical buildup, causing internal components to rust. This rust can eventually lead to corrosion, which can also spread to other parts of your plumbing system. Stained or discolored water is a sign that your water heater is in need of repair. We’ll be happy to take a look and figure out the best course of action for your property’s plumbing.

Unpleasant Smell/Taste

Even trace quantities of rust, chemicals, bacteria or sediment could negatively impact water quality. This can result in discoloration or produce an unpleasant taste or smell. Foul odors might be because of a bad anode rod. Even if bad odors aren’t the result of a problem with your water heater, we’ll still do our best to find out what’s happened.
