Common Hot Water Heater Problems

Even newer, well-maintained water heaters can malfunction. To minimize your household’s inconvenience and keep family members safe from scalding, call Shines Energy team at the first sign of trouble!

• HELP! I DON’T HAVE ANY HOT WATER! A lack of hot water could mean something as simple as a pilot light problem or a damaged heating element. If your water heater is more than a decade old, chances are you need replacement. Whatever the cause, our team of heroes will fix or replace your water heating system in a flash. We’ve got speed and skill on our side!
• MY HOT WATER HEATER IS A LEAKY MESS! Whether your water heater is sitting in a puddle or your entire basement is flooded, there’s no time to waste. Call Shines Energy for an emergency diagnosis and fast repair or replacement.
• I CAN’T SLEEP WITH ALL THIS RACKET! When your water heater goes bang, bump, thump in the night, it’s unsettling and worrisome. Strange water heater noises are caused by a variety of problems. Our certified plumbing technicians will find out the cause and quiet your water heater in no time!
• CRACKS, RUST AND CORROSION. ACK! Never try to fix a cracked hot water heater with do-it-yourself methods. It could be a scalding hazard, and it may be a sign of a pressure crack, advanced corrosion or other significant tank damage. Call Shines Energy squad immediately when you see significant rust or cracks in your water heating system.

How Long Will My Water Heater Last?

High-performance water heaters last for many years—but not forever. Tank and tankless water heating systems come in electric and gas models. Cared-for, well-maintained electric, tankless appliances can last up to 20 years. The average span of a gas-powered water heater is eight to 10 years, but this varies with make, model and maintenance level.

When it’s time to replace an old tank system, ask Shines Energy about tankless water heater services. Tankless units are a highly efficient, long-lasting and compact alternative to traditional water heating systems, and their small footprint frees up precious space in your home.

Here are a few common signs your water heater may be ready to crash:

• IT’S REACHED THE END OF ITS USEFUL LIFE: Tank water heaters that are old or poorly maintained may be nearing time for replacement. We’ll give you options based on your finances and family needs.

Our home comfort heroes will pinpoint the problem and get you back to warm, comfortable showers before the cold-water villains steal your sanity.
