Water Heater Repair

From time to time, water heater repair becomes a necessity. In order to achieve a reliable, energy-efficient supply of hot water, home and business owners in the El Paso area require honest and reliable water heater maintenance and repair services.

Water heater issues aren’t mutually exclusive to the temperature of the water. Although this is a very common issue, there are many more possible scenarios that can signal problems with your water heater. Some common water heater issues include:

• Lack of hot water
• Water isn’t as hot as it should be
• Water has rust coloring
• Smell of rotten egg when using water
• Odd noises like low rumbling, popping, or high pitched whining
• Water leaking at the base of the heater

 

More often than not, issues with water heaters start off small. Perhaps those odd sounds cease or the scent of rotten eggs goes away after a few days. Although the underlying issue isn’t apparent, the water heater may still be in need of maintenance or repairs. Disregarding these signs for too long may lead to more substantial issues. This may eventually create a scenario in which more substantial repairs will be required. Pay attention to the signs and seek assistance sooner rather than later.

In order for a water heater to work at optimal levels, it requires regular maintenance. This way, future issues can be caught in time and the water heater will be as reliable as it’s meant to be. A tune-up or inspection, for instance, will improve the water heater’s performance and efficiency. On top of that, regular maintenance helps home and business owners avoid potential disasters such as tank or water line failure.

When it comes to repairing a water heater, professional assistance becomes a necessity. Water heaters are dangerous appliances. Inexperience may lead to injuries if a home or business owner attempts to repair an issue on their own. This can be the outcome, no matter how simple or insignificant it may seem.

Water heater issues can translate to much more than uncomfortably cold water. If your water heater is leaking, for instance, your water utility bill may increase. In most instances, water heater issues require repairs as quickly as possible. For this reason, Rocky’s Plumbing offers 24/7 emergency service. We can tend to any issue in the appropriate time.
