What's Going On With Your Water Heater?
Not every water heater problem means you need a brand new water heater, a lot of the time it just comes down to one part that has stopped working. On electric water heaters, this is normally one of the heating elements or thermostats, and on gas water heaters, it's most likely the pilot light, thermocouple, or gas control valve. If your hot water is running out faster than it used to or isn't getting as hot as it normally does, there's a good chance one of these parts is the reason why.
Something else to keep in mind is that Peoria has very hard water, which means minerals settle at the bottom of your tank over time and turn into sediment. This sediment makes your water heater work harder than it needs to, and it's normally what causes those popping or rumbling noises you might be hearing. Flushing your tank out about once a year is one of the easiest ways to ensure your water heater is able to last for a long time to come.
When we come out, we'll take a look at your water heater, find out exactly what is going on, and let you know what we think the best option is. If it's something we're able to repair, we'll get it taken care of as soon as we can so you can get back to having hot water!
Signs You Need Water Heater Repair
If you're noticing any of these with your water heater, feel free to give us a call so we can take a look before it turns into a bigger problem.
No hot water
If your water isn't getting hot at all or your hot water is running out a lot faster than it used to, it's normally a problem with a heating element, a thermostat, or the pilot light.
Popping or rumbling
Popping or rumbling noises coming from your tank are usually caused by sediment that has built up on the bottom, which is very common with the hard water here in Peoria.
Rusty or smelly water
If your hot water is coming out brown or smells like rotten eggs, it most likely has to do with the anode rod inside your tank, or the tank itself starting to rust.
Water around the base
Water around the base of your water heater can be something as simple as a loose fitting or valve, but it can also mean your tank is leaking, so it's best to have it looked at as soon as you can.
The sooner a problem gets taken care of, the less likely it is to turn into a bigger and more expensive repair. If you're noticing any of these signs, feel free to give us a call at (309) 309-2554!
Call NowIs Water Heater Repair Even the Best Solution for You?
There are a few different things you should think about when deciding between repairing your water heater and replacing it. The biggest ones are how old your water heater is and how bad the problem actually is. Most tank water heaters last around 8 to 12 years, so if yours is getting close to that age and is starting to have more than one problem, it might just be best to replace it. If the tank itself is leaking, a repair isn't going to fix it, since the inside of the tank has most likely rusted through.
We never want to give you a quick fix that's only going to lead to more problems and more repairs down the road. Our goal is to find the solution that's going to save you money in the long run, even if that means telling you a repair isn't worth it. If a replacement ends up being the better option, you can learn more about our water heater installation services.
If you're replacing your water heater anyway, it might also be a good time to think about going tankless! Tankless water heaters take up less space and give you hot water whenever you need it, and you can learn more on our tankless water heater page.
