Signs Your Water Heater Needs Repairs

Recognizing the early signs of water heater problems can help prevent minor issues from evolving into major, costly repairs. It can also protect your home from potential damage that could be caused by water leaks. Here are some key indicators that your water heater may need professional attention:

• Inadequate Hot Water: If your water heater is not providing enough hot water, or if the water is not hot enough, this could signal a problem that needs to be addressed.
• Strange Noises: A water heater that's making unusual sounds, such as popping, hissing, or banging, could be a sign of sediment buildup that needs to be flushed out.
• Cloudy or Rusty Water: If the water from your heater is discolored or has a metallic taste, it may be a sign of corrosion inside the heater.
• Leaks: Water around the base of your water heater is a clear sign of a leak, which requires immediate professional attention to prevent further damage.
• Frequent Fluctuation in Water Temperature: If the water temperature continually fluctuates, it could indicate a failing heating element.

If you notice any of these signs, don't hesitate to contact our professionals at Ak-Plumbing for prompt and efficient service. We begin every service with a detailed inspection to accurately pinpoint the issue and then offer you our honest advice, so you can make an informed decision about your system. Once you approve the work that needs to be done, we’ll start fixing the problem—working safely, quickly, and cleanly throughout—leaving our workspace spotless post-service.

Common Water Heater Repairs in Pasadena, CA

In Pasadena, certain types of water heater repairs are more commonly requested than others. Here are the most frequent issues that we at Ak-Plumbing address:

• Thermostat Issues: The thermostat controls the temperature of your water. If it's not functioning properly, it might result in water that's either too hot or too cold.
• Heating Element Replacement: The heating element warms the water in the tank. Over time, it can wear out and need replacement, especially if the water temperature is fluctuating.
• Valve Replacement: Valves control the inflow and outflow of water within the water heater. Should these fail or leak, a replacement is necessary to prevent further issues.
• Sediment Flush and Fill: Over time, sediment can accumulate in your water heater, causing the unit to work harder than necessary and possibly leading to strange noises.
• Pressure Relief Valve Testing and Replacement: This valve releases pressure from the water heater if it gets too high. Regular testing can ensure it's working correctly, while replacement is necessary if it's not.
• Anode Rod Replacement: The anode rod prevents the water heater from rusting. If the rod corrodes, the heater may begin to rust, producing discolored water.
