Common Water Heater Problems<\/b><\/h3>

Many homeowners don\u2019t think twice about their water heaters until they\u2019re causing problems. However, they won\u2019t last forever. A simple way to extend the life of your water heater is through annual maintenance measures with Omega Plumbing, but there are some signs you can look out for that indicate you could need to replace it completely:<\/p>

  • Very Tepid Water<\/b>\u00a0<\/li><\/ul>

    This is an issue that can typically be fixed by simply turning up the temperature. If that doesn\u2019t work, however, your heating element may have failed and the unit will need to be replaced.\u00a0<\/p>

    • Zero Hot Water<\/b>\u00a0<\/li><\/ul>

      If you\u2019re not getting any hot water at all, it\u2019s possible that your pilot light has gone out. If that\u2019s not the case, it may be heating element failure that requires replacing.<\/p>

      • Water Smells Bad<\/b>\u00a0<\/li><\/ul>

        If the water smells bad when it comes out of the tap, it could be contaminated with bacteria. You need to call a plumber ASAP to determine what the best next step is.\u00a0<\/p>

        • Noisy Tank<\/b>\u00a0<\/li><\/ul>

          If you\u2019re hearing bangs coming from your water tank, it may be sediment buildup inside of it. This can usually be fixed by flushing the tank.\u00a0<\/p>

          Causes of a Leaking Water Heater<\/b><\/h3>

          A water heater that is leaking could seem minor, but if it\u2019s left to fester for too long, it can turn into quite the mess. If you\u2019ve noticed water leaking out of your water heater, you need to call a profession plumber ASAP to get it taken care of. The most likely causes of water heater leaks are typically:<\/p>

          • Insecure Inlets and Outlets<\/b>\u00a0<\/li><\/ul>

            When inlet and outlet connections are not totally secure, it can result in leaks that are usually simple to fix. Inspect these connections to ensure they\u2019re secure and tighten them if you notice they\u2019re loose.\u00a0<\/p>

            • Heater Drain Valve\u00a0<\/b><\/li><\/ul>

              Much like other valves, check to be sure this one is totally closed. If it is and you\u2019re still having leaks, it may need to be replaced.\u00a0<\/p>

              • Temperature and Pressure Relief Valve\u00a0<\/b><\/li><\/ul>

                These relief valves keep the water heater running the way it should. If the pressure or temp is too high, these valves will activate and drain any excess. If you notice water running down the side of the tank, it might be coming from one of these two valves.\u00a0<\/p>

                • Corroded Tank\u00a0<\/b><\/li><\/ul>

                  This is the most common and serious water heater leaks is caused by corrosion inside the tank. If routine maintenance is not performed, sediment can be allowed to build up in the tank and cause corrosion, thus resulting in a leaking tank.\u00a0<\/p>
