What is The Most Common Problem With Water Heaters?

The most common problem with water heaters is when they don't provide enough hot water or the water isn't hot enough. This can happen because of different reasons, like a part inside the heater not working properly or dirt and debris building up inside the tank. 

Sometimes, the pilot light or the gas supply can also cause problems with gas-powered heaters. To prevent and fix these issues, it's important to regularly maintain the water heater by cleaning it and checking the parts. That way, you can make sure you always have enough hot water when you need it.

Does your water heater need to be repaired?

Your water heater, just like other plumbing appliances, often offers signs of issues before completely stopping. You should contact a professional plumber at your earliest convenience at the first sign of trouble, such as a lack of hot water.

Is It Time For a New Water Heater? 

Water heaters can’t last forever. Even with proper maintenance, a typical unit will run well for about 10 years. As you get past 12 years, you might be living (and showering) on borrowed time! 

The following are signs that it might be time for a new water heater:

  • Your water heater is over a decade old.
  • When you turn on the hot water, it’s an orange-brown, rusty color.
  • Your hot water isn’t working at all.
  • Your hot water smells and tastes metallic.
  • Your water heater is making strange sounds.
  • Your water heater is leaking.
  • You never seem to have enough hot water.
  • Your water heater constantly needs inconvenient, expensive repairs.

How Long Do Water Heaters Last?

Water heaters usually last around 8 to 12 years, but it can vary. Some factors that affect how long they last include the type of heater, its quality, how often it's used, how well it's taken care of, and the water's quality. Tankless heaters generally last longer than traditional ones with tanks. Doing regular maintenance like cleaning the tank and checking the parts can make a water heater last longer. When a water heater gets close to the end of its lifespan, it's important to watch for any problems and think about getting a new one if needed.

If you’re experiencing any type of problem with your unit, your best bet is to call in a professional. A Kansas City water heater technician at Mission Plumbing, Heating & Cooling can look the system over and see what’s causing your problems. It might be a quick fix, a more in-depth repair, or an issue that means it’s time to replace the whole unit. Whatever the case, you can trust that we will offer fair pricing and a detailed estimate so you know exactly what to expect.
