Common Signs You Need Water Heater Repair
It’s not always obvious when your water heater is in trouble. Addressing small issues early can help you avoid expensive repairs or premature replacement. Watch for these warning signs:
- Inconsistent or limited hot water: Your system should deliver steady, reliable heat. If it doesn’t, a heating element or thermostat issue could be to blame.
- Discolored or rusty water: If the hot water (not cold) runs rusty or brown, corrosion inside your tank or pipes could be occurring.
- Leaking or dripping tank: Even small leaks from the tank or pressure relief valve can indicate serious internal problems or excessive pressure buildup.
- Strange noises: Loud popping, rumbling, or banging sounds often mean sediment has built up in your tank.
- Visible rust or corrosion: Rust on the exterior can weaken the tank and lead to leaks if not addressed quickly.
If you notice any of these signs, don’t wait until your water heater completely fails. Call our experts at Clog Pro for fast diagnosis and dependable repairs.
