Below you’ll learn about common hot water heater problems and if the heater can be repaired or if it needs to be replaced.
Hot Water Runs Out Quickly
If your hot water doesn’t last as long as it should, you can start by adjusting the temperature dial on the front of the unit. If that doesn’t fix the problem, inspect the floor around the tank to make sure that it isn’t leaking water. Other solutions to the problem, which will require a visit from a plumber, include flushing the tank, replacing the temperature pressure relief valve or installing a new dip tube.
Bad Smell Coming From Hot Water Tap
If you smell a strong rotten egg odor when you turn on the hot water tap, this signals that the anode rod needs to be replaced. The anode rod keeps the inside of your hot water heater from corroding, and when sulfates in the water react with the anode rod, it creates a rotten egg smell. Contact an experienced technician to replace the anode in your appliance to get rid of the smell.
No Hot Water Coming Out Of The Faucet
If you turn on your hot water faucet, and you don’t have, any water coming out, first check the electrical connection to the appliance and the fuse box. Next, open the front panel of the unit and push the reset button. If you still don’t have any hot water, your heating element could be bad. Contact an experienced technician who specializes in Water Heater Installation in Spanish Fork UT to replace the heating element or install a new hot water heater.
