Atlanta Water Heater Repair & Replacement
A water heater makes it possible to bathe and shower comfortably, as well as wash dishes and clothes effectively. Water heaters are everywhere, in every Atlanta residence and most commercial facilities. And because they are such reliable appliances, most people don’t think about water heaters—until they malfunction.
Common Water Heater Problems
Water heaters are sturdy appliances designed for long-term use, but over time, problems can develop that hinder their performance. Some of the most common issues associated with water heaters include the following:
- Inadequate hot water supply suggests a problem with the electric heating elements inside an electric water heater’s tank or a thermocouple problem preventing the burner from lighting in a gas water heater.
- Water leaks around the unit indicate a broken pipe, loose connection, or a mechanical problem is causing the temperature & pressure relief valve to eject water. Any of these problems can cause severe damage to the water heater if left unaddressed.
- Strange noises or vibrations indicate sediment buildup in the heater tank. Heating the water disturbs the sediment, causing popping sounds and vibrations.
- Fluctuating water temperatures may indicate hidden leaks or problems with the water heater’s thermostat.
- Sediment buildup occurs when dissolved minerals solidify inside a water heater tank, hindering performance. Sediment buildup is most common in regions with hard water, which you can address with a water-softening system.
- Gas water heaters may develop faulty pilot lights, which must be repaired or replaced by a trained professional.
- Water heaters typically have lifespans of 8-12 years. Some water heaters can function for 20 years or more with proper maintenance.
Timely repairs and maintenance are essential for water heater performance. Spotting the signs your water heater needs repair can help you catch minor problems before they become serious.
