Spotting the telltale signs of a water heater problem early can help you avoid more costly and serious repairs later. Call our team when you notice any of the following indicators that your water heater needs repairs:- You keep running out of hot water: When the tank has too much sediment built up, a heating element has failed, or the burners aren’t working properly, your water heater may not be able to keep up with demand like it used to.
- The water is not at the correct temperature: If the water is too cool or has inconsistent temperatures, the thermostat may be failing.
- There are leaks near your water heater: if you notice drips, wet spots, or water stains around your water heater, the tank, the plumbing, or the pressure relief valve may be leaking.
- Fluctuating pressure or flow: If you can’t seem to keep the mix of hot and cold water right, the pressure or flow from your water heater may be fluctuating due to faulty heating elements, dirty burners, or sediment accumulation.
- The water is rusty or discolored: If the anode rod has failed or the tank is starting to rust through, you may notice rusty water, discoloration, or stains in fixtures.

Why is my water heater so loud suddenly?
Sounds like rumbling, banging, popping, or sizzling can indicate sediment buildup in the tank. As the water is heated and forced to rise through the sediment, it can make noise. Flushing the tank can move this debris and help your water heater last longer. Periodic flushing eliminates this issue and extends the lifespan of your system.
Can a rusty water heater be repaired?
Surface rust on the exterior sheet metal may be repairable, but if the tank itself is rusting, your water heater may have a limited lifespan. Once the tank starts rusting, it will eventually corrode through, and at that time, the only remedy is a water heater replacement. If left unresolved, a rusted tank will likely leak one day, potentially causing serious water damage.
