Frequently Asked Questions About Water Heater Repair
The average life expectancy of a water heater is around eight to twelve years but it is important to take into account the manufacturer’s suggested service life of your particular model as well when trying to estimate its lifespan.
Water heaters can take a long time to heat up for many reasons. Some houses have longer pipelines, which means it takes longer for warm water to reach the faucet. If you find that it takes awhile for your water to get hot, call a plumbing technician to help resolve the issue.
The most common reason a water heater will stop working is sediment buildup, especially as the water heater ages. When water is heated, minerals like calcium and magnesium collect along the sides of the tank and the burner. If these minerals are not filtered out of the water heater, they form a sediment barrier that will settle on the burner and seriously affect your water heater’s performance.
It can be dangerous to have a leaking water heater. If the Temperature and Pressure valve fails to turn off your water heater when the temperature or pressure is too high, your water heater could explode. If you notice your water heater is leaking, call a trusted plumber at Peterman Brothers as soon as possible, to be safe.
Signs Your Columbus, OH Water Heater Is in Need of Expert Repair Services from Peterman Brothers
If your water heater is experiencing any of the following issues, call Peterman Brothers for Expert Water Heater Repair Services as soon as possible to avoid permanent damage:
One of the biggest giveaways that your water heater is experiencing issues in need of professional repair from Peterman Brothers is if the temperature of the water from your faucets and appliances is fluctuating. When sediment and mineral deposits build up in a water heater tank, this can lead to your appliances and plumbing not getting the appropriate amount of hot water – if any at all! Whether your hot water is not sustaining the length you need it to or you are not getting any hot water at all, you will need to contact Peterman Brothers right away.
Mineral deposits and sediment buildup can also affect the water pressure from your faucets and plumbing. If you notice the water pressure is weak when you turn on your hot water specifically, you will need to call Peterman Brothers for Expert Water Heater Repair Services as soon as possible.
Anytime that your water heater begins leaking, particularly hot water, you will need to contact Peterman Brothers immediately. Leaking hot water is a clear indication that there is something failing or clogged within your hot water heater tank.
A buildup of minerals and sediment in your water heater can result in discolored or cloudy water from your tap. Water that is either cloudy or rust colored is a red flag for professional repair service. Additionally, if the water has a distinct smell to it, this is also likely due to a buildup of sediment in the tank. If your hot water is cloudy and smelling funny, call Peterman Brothers right away to avoid potential negative health effects!
There are a number of reasons that could cause your water heater to suddenly start making loud, unfamiliar noises that you’ve never heard it make before, including sediment buildup. If your water heater has suddenly started making odd noises that you do not recognize, you are likely in need of Expert Water Heater Repair Services from Peterman Brothers.
Most of the listed water heater issues above are all rooted in mineral deposits and sediment buildup. This is why it is extremely important to have your water heater professionally maintained at least once a year by a certified problem at Peterman Brothers. If you have not had your water heater tuned-up in the last year and suspect you may be having issues, you likely do and it is likely due to the neglect of proper maintenance. Nonetheless, you will likely need a Peterman Brothers technician to come out and try to flush your water heater and complete any necessary repairs.
