What Are Some Ways to Tell If Your Water Heater Needs Repairs?

The easiest way to tell if your water heater needs repairs include leaking tank, rusty or odd smelling water, no hot water or fluctuating temperatures, and strange noises.

Leaking tank: This is probably the most obvious sign that there is a problem with a water heater and in need of professional repair or replacement. There may be multiple sources of the leak, but all have the potential to cause serious damage to your home if left untreated. Water damage can ruin subfloors and lead to mold, so it is best to repair a leaky water heater as soon as possible.

Rusty or odd-smelling water: The quality of your water is incredibly important, and when your water is no longer as clean or clear as it once was, your health could be at risk. If your water begins to take on a rusty color, there is a possibility that a component of your heater is in need of repair or that sediment has built up in the bottom of the tank and needs to be cleaned. If the water begins to smell strange, there is a possibility that your heater has bacteria growing inside and is in need of flushing.

No hot water or fluctuating temperatures: Obviously, if you have a water heater, you want it to produce hot water. If it is no longer doing its job, it is time to call a professional. A specialist can determine the source of the problem and make the necessary replacements or adjustments so that your heater is once again in working order.

Strange noises: If your water heater has begun to make clanking or other strange noises, it is time to have the heater inspected for repairs or cleaning. Noises may be a sign that a component in the heater has gone bad or sediment is building up within the tank. It may also be a sign of corrosion within the tank that has no telltale signs outside.

Why Are Repairs Necessary?

Water heaters are an essential part of any home, which is what makes it so dangerous when things go wrong. A heater contaminated with bacteria or full of rust or sediment can affect your water quality and potentially your health. Water heaters can also be costly to replace. Regular maintenance can extend your water heater’s lifespan, giving you peace of mind and saving you money.

Water Heater Maintenance Process

There comes a time when your water heater needs maintenance. Water heater maintenance is designed to catch problems before they escalate into costly repairs or premature replacement. Here is the water heater maintenance process and what it entails.
  • Draining the water heater to flush out any buildup of sediment and impurities. As sediments build up, they make it harder to transfer heat to the water. This leads to a less efficient water heater and early tank failure.
  • Checking the tank’s structural integrity. This involves Inspecting both inside and outside the unit for signs of aging or cracks. A cracked or damaged water heater tank may lead to a water heater replacement so this is a critical tank issue.
  • Checking for cracks in the hoses. Water hoses may crack due to corrosion, high water pressure or inadequate insulation. However, cracked pipes can almost always be repaired.
  • Inspecting and changing the filters as needed. Over time, dust will build up on the water heater’s filter, reducing airflow and creating a less efficient heater. The filter needs to be cleaned or replaced according to manufacturer instructions.
  • Determining if the unit is operating at maximum efficiency. Whether your unit is electric or gas fueled, it’s crucial to confirm that heater is producing adequate hot water without consuming too much power or gas.
Being proactive about water heater maintenance will not only save you money but also save you from headaches in the future.

Why Should You Call a Professional?

Water heaters can produce extreme temperatures. The average heater produces temperatures around 120 degrees Fahrenheit, which can cause first degree burns. A malfunctioning heater can easily produce temperatures around 160 degrees, which can cause much more severe burning. It is best to allow a trained professional make the repairs than to take that risk  yourself.

Had an issue with an outdoor faucet and a toilet that would not fill. Todd and Paddy arrived during the scheduled time window, assessed the issues and provided me with options on how to fix them. They took time to answer any questions, finished the jobs in a timely matter and cleaned up afterwards. Second experience with the company and no complaints.

I had a great experience with Mark Gossler at Neyer/Nixco Plumbing. My mother's hot water heater was leaking from a spot that the technician said was not usual. Instead of just replacing the part that was leaking, he spot checked multiple places around the house to find what was causing the leak and was able to fix all issues that day.

We recently required emergency services and called Nixco on a Sunday afternoon. Our technician Jared McCall arrived shortly thereafter. He quickly began accessing the issue using a camera and determined the issue must be outside the house. He located the sewer cleanout and using his auger and camera found we had root intrusion in our pipe. He was able open the clog but determined he needed to return the next morning with more powerful equipment to fully break through the roots, which was completed in about 90 minutes. We were completely satisfied with Nixco and Jared’s professionalism. We will continue to use Nixco for future plumbing services.

Jared McCall diagnosed our whistling sound while water was running as a pressure valve issue and replaced the part eliminating the annoying noise. Shawn Crank did an excellent job of diagnosing and addressing our sump pump issues. We had another plumbing company out to address the problem and the issue recurred 8 days later after they supposedly resolved the concern. Now the problem is actually solved. NIxco's excavation team replaced our sump pump drainage discharge line that had become reconnected from the main storm sewer line running along the streeet. Nathan Floyd did a great job diagnosing our low water pressure issue and he and Kyle did an expert job of replacing our water softener. Kyle Cox and Owen fixed our leaking primary bath faucet. They had the parts on their truck and were able to repair the faucet quickly.

Our new homeowner’s insurance is requiring one of those leak detector/whole house shutoff devices. Called these guys for a second estimate as I thought the first one was high. Not only was their estimate about 20% less for the same device, the plumber (Mason) said I can actually do it right now if you want. This was great as I already had blocked a half day off just for the estimate. He did a great on the work, made sure everything was cleaned up well, and walked me through the app setup. I will definitely use them again and request Mason.
