Common Signs Your Water Heater Needs Repair
If you notice any of these signs, it’s recommended to contact a professional plumber or water heater technician for a thorough inspection and appropriate repair. Addressing issues promptly can help prevent further damage and extend the lifespan of your water heater.
If you’re experiencing fluctuations in water temperature during use, where the water suddenly becomes too hot or too cold, it could indicate a malfunctioning thermostat or heating element.
If your water heater is not producing enough hot water to meet your household’s needs, it might be due to a faulty heating element, sediment buildup, or other issues that need to be addressed.
Rusty or discolored water coming from your taps can indicate corrosion or sediment buildup inside the water heater tank. This could require flushing the tank and addressing the underlying cause.
A metallic smell or taste in your hot water suggests corrosion or a deteriorating anode rod. Repairing or replacing the anode rod can help improve water quality.
Gurgling, popping, or banging noises coming from the water heater are often caused by sediment buildup in the tank. Flushing the tank can help eliminate the noise and improve efficiency.
Visible water leaks around the water heater, including from the base of the tank, fittings, valves, or pipes, should be addressed immediately to prevent water damage.
If your water heater has stopped producing hot water altogether, it could be due to a malfunctioning thermostat, heating element, or other internal component that requires repair.
If the pressure relief valve on your water heater is constantly discharging water, it could indicate high pressure within the tank or a malfunctioning valve that needs replacement.
A sudden spike in your energy bills could be a sign that your water heater is working inefficiently due to a malfunctioning component, such as a heating element or thermostat.
Fluctuations in water pressure can indicate sediment buildup, a clogged pipe, or other issues within the water heater that need to be addressed.
Visible signs of corrosion or rust on the water heater, particularly around the bottom or seams, should be addressed to prevent leaks and further deterioration.
If your water heater is taking longer than usual to heat water, it might indicate a problem with the heating element, thermostat, or other components that require repair.

This appointment was for an annual service on my new Furnace. Arrived on time, answered any question i had,and completed the service on the Furnace. Tyler also took the time to look at a problem toilet, gave me his thoughts on problem and then provided me a quot to fix. Maffei has generally always done a good job for me.

Tony, Maffei's Comfort Advisor met us at our cold church. He was so careful in checking things out, photographing our failed heating system. And he has gotten back to us in less than a week! Tony and Maffei concluded that Maffei doesn't do this type of project but Tony had several good referrals for us to services that do! Awesome! Thank you!
