We'll Help You Identify Common Water Heater Issues

Water heaters can exhibit several concerning signs of malfunction as they age. It's imperative that you recognize the following symptoms so that you know when to make the call for water heater repair. Need our help? Schedule your water heater repair with Sullivan Plumbing if you've noticed any of the following:

• Foul smell and/or discolored hot water: This indicates that your water heater tank has corroded over time and this, in turn, releases the rust into your home's hot water.
  
  
• Tank leaks: Finding out you have a leaking water tank isn't a great sign for anyone. The problem could be as minor as your tank needing a valve tightened or a pipe connection repaired, or it might be time for you to think about replacing your tank if it has rusted through.
  
  
• There is no hot water: If your water heater isn't providing a supply of hot water, there is an issue. Before you reach out for a service call, check your home's circuit breaker to ensure you aren't experiencing a power interruption.
  
  
• Hot water is quickly depleted: If your hot water doesn't last for more than a few minutes before it runs out, you might need to either adjust your usage habits or think about an upgrade to a larger tank or an efficient on-demand tankless model.
  
  
• Water isn't hot enough or too hot: If you're experiencing poor temperature control and adjusting the thermostat doesn't help, you might need the thermostat adjusted or replaced.
  
  
• Unusual noises from your water heater: Water heaters shouldn't make noise, so you shouldn't ignore out-of-the-ordinary sounds. There may be a need to have your water heater flushed and depending on it sediment accumulation is in the tank and has started emanating "kettling" noises.
